What's the point of giving your two weeks notice if the company can just fire you right away
dont
>>543077668It used to be an honourable thing to do so that your company had time to find a replacemet. Yeah, that doesn't really matter in 2026.
>>543077668"work at will" means you work when they will or not at all, your reputation as an employee matters, their rep as an employer doesn't
>>543077753>"work at will" means you work when they will or not at allwhat?
>>543077778https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/At-will_employment
>>543077668it's a nonsensical relic from the past. if you are a "knowledge worker" at a big corporation, it's completely meaningless considering it takes like 2 weeks just to requisition a job posting for a replacement hire. t. manager
>>543077778>you work when they will or not at all>>543077799Im more conbfused at this wording
>>543077828work when they will as in "when they will it"
In theory its so you can close out any work, end on a pay period and the company can find a replacement. Doesn't really work in 2026 but its one of those hold overs like marriage, phone lines and the ethnic aisle that we haven't found a good way to phase out.

>>543077668Employer here. Why would I keep someone for two weeks after they've been fired? They're just going to be dead weight at best and sabotage my business at worst. Employees have to give 2 weeks if they want a good reference and full pay. I will drop you to minimum wage on your last check if you don't give notice.
>>543077911yeah so you're just being a cunt
>>543077911Two weeks notice is something you give to your employer to say you are quitting.
>Employees have to give 2 weeks if they want a good reference and full pay. I will drop you to minimum wage on your last check if you don't give notice.that is some cuntery if you can just drop them whenever on your end
>>543077988No, I need you to stay on for 2 weeks to find/train your replacement. If you don't like it, fine, I'll pay you $7.25 on your last check.
wait you're full of shit anyway since there's no way you can even do that and not open yourself to a lawsuit, larping fag
Kek. This happened to me. I put in my 2 weeks and they told me to get my stuff and leave.
>>543078009Faggots like him are why society is in the gutter. Next he'll be wondering why money ends up going missing in his company.
>>543078066I wouldn't even bother showing up for you. The money ain't worth it.
>>543078086>>543078121nah he can absolutely get sued for that
they've got pay records of what their wage was, them not giving notice is not a legal excuse to just drop it to minimum
>>543077911>I will drop you to minimum wage on your last check if you don't give notice.You'll be paying that back tenfold in court, even in America. There's laws against shit like that.
>>543077911Kys faggot parasite
>>543077668>just 2 more weeksits just a way to say it'll never happen and you'll be there forever or until the jews distract you
at my last job I gave my 2 weeks, my boss just let me do nothing at home until the time was up
>>543077911This, the problem is all the entitled people in this country who don’t understand what it’s like to run a business or balance a budget.>>543078411I bet he is no longer with the company or that business no longer exists.
>>543078142Not in my state. I can pay anything above minimum wage. None of my employees have contracts. Also, good luck finding an attorney to represent you on your $500 lawsuit.
>>543078520>Not in my stateso you live in Arkansas
>>543078520>Not in my state.and I'm guessing you either found one in the last 10 minutes to claim, or won't say which because "dox", right
>>543078520Not only are most employees overly entitled these days but woefully ignorant of how the law works and how tax code works and how businesses budget themselves. It’s insane that we have this pool of people to pick from and then they get mad when we hire and Indian who will do the job with no complaints
>>543078559why the fuck is this pronounced "arkansaw"
>>543077668It's to show respect to an employer who was not a bad boss.
