Have you ever been let go after giving your employer a two-week notice to quit? I feel like they might just let me go without paying me for the two weeks before my new job starts. I’m not even sure if I should give them notice or not. I dont want to lose those two weeks of wages. I’ve always given a two-week notice before, but my gut tells me they’d choose money over me. They’re cheap and share all the profits among their family instead of with the employees. Any suggestion?

The respectable thing to do is to give the two week notice. However, you can quit on the spot if you decide. I would say trust your gut. However, check your employment agreement if you have one to make sure that there is no specific notice requirement.

You are an at will employee, if they can fire you at will, you can quit at will.

The respect factor is gone, the old days are gone, we playing with new rules..
