Gardening Leave

Categories: Company Management

You have put in your 2 weeks’ notice at you job, and instead of coming into work, you either use up vacation time or personal time until the day you're supposed to leave your job. You spend this time doing things you enjoy, like gardening (or cow-tipping). You 're not allowed to work at either company during this time.

You would typically see gardening leave in the UK rather than in the US.
