Well you ain't going to end in a cell block with Buba.
Probably in breach of your current employment contract, but if your on leave and you're leaving anyway then they won't know and much less care I would have thought.
The first week of any job is just induction fluff anyway.
If the thought prevents you taking that start with the new employer I'd say you didn't actually want the job in the first place.
