I'm Puzzled

Why is it that a newly elected president does not take power immediatley, but instead the old guy stays in office for a few more weeks doing as much damage as he can? This in a country where almost every other employee who is fired or resigns is immediately given a box to pack, watched while they pack it, then escorted to the door?

It's pretty much the opposite in the UK. If you resign you are usually required to work out your notice (although this is changing), but the Prime Minister takes power immediately.
