I have an official offer from a second company, which is also a great place.

So you handed in the notice before signing on the line knowing the official offer?
That is a dangerous game to play in these tough economic times. You could have easily handed in your notice and the new employer changes their mind at the last minute for any one of a million reasons.
Anyway, Congrats on the new job! Hope everything works out fine.

No ! I have been in the same situation, and refused (Because why should my job be worth a 20% rise after I first quit ?). They refused to pay my overtime - They actually deleted my hours from the system, and I had to sue them to have them pay the due vacation time I had not taken yet. I was sooooo happy I had refused the proposition of this bunch of clowns...

Good luck to you.
If the only time you're worth a raise is when you quit then you're in the wrong place.

I wasn't asking for more money. We had some terms when I was hired, and a process we were intending to implement. Those things were not met, and there wasn't an agreement anymore.

It sounds to me like you made the correct decision, based solely on the material you provided.
You should take the bosses reaction, and the fact that the daughter tried to get you to stay, as a compliment of sorts. If you were a sh*t bag, then they would not care, IMHO.
Best of luck to you, at your new company.
-- By the way, I have changed companies, a handful of times, and it is never an easy decision, or process.

Last time I handed my notice in (6 weeks) my boss didn't say another word from me for the entire 6 weeks they made me work out there, not one.
I used to go and hang around in offices he was in because he always walked out as soon as he could when I did.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

Five hundred -> 'D' in Roman
"Diurnal" -> daily
I ain't got no signature.

I did one for Millenium, Millenium Falcon, Yoda, and even tried R2D2, Death Star (Eats Darth) and Tatooine
but I was late, and in a hurry so just looked for the word of the day on some website and used that!

You have broken the build for the last time...

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

"No, from Canada."

The code is strong in this one I'm afraid.
