Isn’t it odd that you can be fired immediately for any reason (in America, anyway) with disastrous financial consequences; but if you don’t give a two-week notice you risk not getting recommended for future jobs?
That’s why you try to line up the new job before you quit - they can’t talk shit about you quitting on short notice if you’re still there.
I actually tried to give two weeks at my old job - they didn’t deserve it, but I figured I should. The application for my new job even had a checkbox labeled “I am currently employed and will need two weeks notice of my first shift.”
Instead, they called me on a monday and asked “can you start next monday?”
…My boss wasn’t in that day, and I really wanted a weekend before starting my new job; so on Tuesday, they found out that Friday was my last day.
I dont think I know a single person who doesn’t just put their friend/co-workers down as “supervisors or managers” and use them as a reference.
And I know people will say “thats fraud,” but if you dont realise every business/corporation is committing white collar crimes, fraud, cheating the system, using tax loopholes, etc on a daily basis, I have a bridge to sell you.

This is why we need more unions.

I plan to go into work wearing nothing but my work boots. I don’t think the two weeks notice will be required

What if your logic is “yes I know THEY commit fraud regularly, but that doesn’t mean I have to.”?
