HR manager and I are friends, who knows I've been looking. We go out for sangria. Boss and me? Eh. Cordial, but I find him a little slimy and unwilling to stick up for his employees.
Big!Boss? What-the-fuck-ever.
Angel: Connor, this is Spike and Illyria. Guys, this is Connor. Connor: Hi. umm...I like your outfit. Illyria: Your body warms. This one is lusting after me. Connor: Oh...no, I--I--it's just that it's the outfit. I guess I've had a thing for older women. Angel: They were supposed to fix that.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Then offer your letter to the HR person today, formal notice to boss on Monday. Get the righteous fuck outta there.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I've always told my boss first and then made it formal. I think you could tell your HR buddy without it being Official Notice, but what do I know.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Maria, is HR manager enough of a friend that you could ask to keep it quiet until you tell your boss Monday morning?

You really don't want your boss to hear it from anyone who isn't you.

Maria,
my sector of employment is different from yours, but in my two resignations, I have always told my immediate boss first. Then other relevant colleagues. Then HR.

I scrambled out of bed this morning in a panic, thinking, "JESUS CHRIST WHAT DAY IS IT AM I SUPPOSED TO BE AT THE AIRPORT?!" I have the feeling this is going to be happening to me a lot over the next three months.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I didn't know you had to tell HR. I wouldn't dream of telling anyone before my boss, no matter if I hated them or not, though.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I have only ever told my boss, who told our department administrator, who told HR/Payroll.
