How do you tell your boss you got another job offer?
Tell him or her that you’re going to be putting in your notice today, and briefly explain why. You needn’t go on and on, you needn’t go into detail. Just explain, briefly, that you’ve received an offer you’ve decided to accept and are moving on. That is not a good idea if you feel you could be tempted to stay.

You should definitely tell a company that you just received an offer from another employer. There’s a psychological payoff to telling a potential employer that you’ve already received another offer.
