Should You Give 2-Week Notice Before You Quit?

[@michaeld.langiano1700]

Many companies nowadays are so arrogant. If you work for one of these toxic companies, not only should you not give them any notice, just quietly clean out your office over a couple weeks time, then just stop showing up. Don't even bother telling them that you left their employ. Let them figure it out. F* them!

Agree completely. Any notice is time removed from your own life, regardless of how little. Don't give them that time from your life if they're undeserving..

I was an instructor pilot for a mom-and-pop school. I gave three months' notice and even helped hire my replacement. Good people and deserved all the help I gave them... I also worked for a corporate school. No notice was given because there was ZERO reason to extend that favor...

It’s against the law to give a bad reference. All they do is verify employment, dates/titles, salary, and more.

[@amysdreamvideos8174]

No it's not and even if it was people give bad references all the time.g

72 hr notice is advised in order to get final checks and vacation cashouts from HR in timely state mandated manner.

[@sideshowbilly3755]

My company requires a 2-week notice if you are on their profit-sharing or bonus program. If employees give a 2-week notice, then the departing employee is still eligible to receive the bonus for time already worked no matter how "angry" the employer is at you.

[@OhJodi69]

If you give 2 weeks notice, be financially prepared to have your job end immediately. I worked for a financial company that would just have security escort people out as soon as they gave notice.

[@erichorton1440]

Employers don't give 2 weeks before they fire you or lay you off so you shouldn't give them 2 weeks before you fire them as your employer

[@edhones]

Exactly!

[@paulietv2162]

@@edhones Even here in Australia where they are legally obliged to give 4 weeks notice, if they want you out you will be gone that same day. They just make up some BS 'Gross Misconduct' issue. As a union delegate for many years I can tell you that most HR departments are rotten to the core and are only there to protect management.

[@ashvandal5697]

Most employers actually “DO” give you two weeks notice, usually more than two weeks notice. When they start writing you up, and giving you PIPs, you’re getting your notice. If a company outright fired you, you probably did actually do something that warranted it.

requiring me to send photographic evidence of my positive results when in reality corporate NEVER said that. She lied just to see if I was lying about being sick with covid. Is that illegal? Can I use?

[@KimsLantern]

Thankyou for your videos. I, and many others, really appreciate them! Have you had any cases where an employer has been basically trying to make the employees ‘work’ life a living hell in order to get them to quit? I feel like I had that situation when I worked for a Michaels a few years ago. I quit because my manager at the time was bullying me. I even refused full-time because I didn’t want to work with her 40 hours a week. I put in my ‘two weeks’ but told my store manager that my last day would be a bit over week(because I didn’t want to work with my bully manager)

[@edwardcharles3000]

What if you have your complaints on video with your supervisor ?

[@marksoth1772]

2 weeks notice is a joke. They would not give you 2 weeks notice.

[@mosca-tse-tse]

But they pay you for these two weeks. So effectively it’s even better, you don’t have to work but you get paid.

My dad just out of no where got me a job at a cement plant and I honestly hate it. They’re having me do shit they didn’t tell me I’d be doing before hand. I genuinely don’t wanna give a 2 weeks notice for this job I just wanna leave. But my dad’s saying if I just quit without it, it’ll go on my record and fuck up a chance at another job. Is that true?

[@BobaDavis]

I mean, you certainly won't be able to use them as a positive reference - if you don't need them, quit. But I don't know the specifics of your situation: is it simply the case that you don't like the job but you need to "man up" and deal? If you have another job lined up, go ahead - if you don't, wait until you have the next job to tell your current that you're done.

[@boeing757pilot]

Does your dad know them? Don't want to burn your dad..

[@amysdreamvideos8174]

Nope. Just say it hurts your body too much. It's a cement plant ! Nobody cares. You can get loads of better jobs and be safer.

[@maddistone8573]

Personally I think the custom/courtesy of two weeks notice should just be done away with. There are too many companies that tell you to just pack your stuff and leave while a guard walks you out like a criminal. Losing two or even one weeks pay could be someone's rent or food. The trouble is, people are afraid NOT to give two weeks because it looks bad for them because it is still pretty much expected. So people are at the mercy of these companies and hope they can finish out their two weeks. Maybe a law requiring severance pay for that two weeks they won't let you finish? Either let them work it or pay them the two weeks to just leave.

[@Ken-vk8pb]

If I quit a job that I worked for more than 10 years but I quit without leaving a 2 week notice but instead called my supervisor to inform them I quit and they said alright can I possibly get my old job back 5 years later since its an At-Will employment state? Would I be eligible for a re-hire oir not since that may depend on the company.

[@boeing757pilot]

Depends on the company..

[@JonnyD-gl7cn]

Actually, you can just tell HR! No need to inform your supervisor

"Don't have to" doesn't mean you shouldn't.

People don't grasp that giving notice is about protecting your professional reputation not for the benefit of the company. It's a small world and you shouldn't burn a bridge that you don't have to, at least not without a good reason.
