I've got a new job, I've known for just over a week.
I was told by my new employer not to resign until I got my contract. It arrived on Saturday, but they emailed my current employers for a reference on Friday when I wasn't in work.
My manager was cool with me this morning and he's usually fine. I was going to speak to him today anyway and when I did, he said he was aware and he really wasn't interested. Now I feel really embarrassed this has happened.
I've apologised, told him I asked them not to contact him until I'd returned the contract, but they ignored this.
It was so awkward 😳 I know he'll still give me a good reference as I'm a valued member of the team.
Does what happened matter? Should I mention it to new employers or let it go as I'm leaving anyway.?

Manager found out about my new job before I told him, he's not impressed!
