Question

how can you quit without giving 2 weeks notice?

Answer 1

You can quit.. you can do whatever you want. I often will hear people say - I have no choice!! Well, whatever it is - you always have a choice, maybe one or both of the options are stinky - but you have a choice, you can leave without notice; but it may or may not hurt your career later on down the road. . . If you want to keep them "on your side" try and at least give them one week's notice; then they can't really say anything. . .Talk to the people who offered you a new job - explain how you feel leaving the job abruptly like that. . .chances are the new employer will like hearing that you insist on giving the notice; because it may also reflect how you look to them if you just walk out. . .You may leave the new job thinking. . Is she gonna do that to us???

Think about it. Think about the old employer -- then decide if you can afford to "burn that bridge"

Answer 2

you can do anything you want. your not tied to your job. if you want to quit just let your boss know your leaving or just walk out. even though its good to give a notice, your not it jail. its your call, you can do whatever you want.

Answer 3

Submit a medical certificate that you are unfit to continue working.

Answer 4

Quit. Effective immeadiately.



Sure it's nice to give notice, but how often does a company (generally) give you two weeks notice when they fire you?

Answer 5

Even though you can legally leave whenever you want, I recommend giving your two weeks notice. You'll get a better reference, and some companies won't pay certain benefits, severance pay for example, without receiving the proper notice defined in their employee manual.

Answer 6

EASY WALK UP TO YOUR BOSS AND SAY I QUIT BUT IT LOOKS BETTER IF YOU GIVE NOTICE

Answer 7

Walk into your boss's office, whip it out and whizz on his desk. WHen done, shake twice and calmly say "I QUIT".

Answer 8

Just be nice, and let them know you wanted to give them more notice but your new job is already starting.

Answer 9

Hmm. HOw can you quit without giving a two week notice. Its really simple most people just quit on the spot, or you can make up a biff and tell them its something urgent and it came up unexpectactly. Good Luck in whatever choice you make. :-)

Answer 10

Dont if you can stay on. It might help in the long run.

Answer 11

You can just quit, 2 weeks notice is just standard practice, but not required. It might hurt you in the long run though if you ever need a reference or if a future employer wants to call and verify info.

Answer 12

Giving 2 Weeks Notice

Answer 13

The best way is to try and give a 2 week notice, but I understand that is not always possible. If you do not feel you can give a 2 week notice, then I would just be straight forward with your boss. Let them know that you are turning in your resignation effective immediately and that you are unable to give a 2 week notice. There is nothing that they can do to stop you and I have found that some companies don't want a 2 week notice, if you give one they will ask you to leave right away.



Hope this helps...

Answer 14

It's customary to give give 2 weeks notice, and you might be glad you did the right thing when you have to use them as a reference in the future. Not for your new job, but the one after that--most employers want to talk to you last 2-3 employers. So, do the write thing, submit a written brief notice like "Thank you for the opportunity to work at _______________. I have enjoyed what I have learned here, but now feel my best growth opportunities lie elsewhere. I am submitting my resignation effective________________."



This will go in your HR file, so make it brief, professional and positive because it's all that will speak for you long after you leave the job.



When you new boss finds out where you will be working, my guess is they will tell you to hit the road immediately. But at least you did the right thing and you protect your professional reputation. It's always tempting in the moment to burn that bridge, but try and keep your wits about you and not let it get to you.



Good luck and congrats on the new job!

Answer 15

As being a manager for 30 yrs it is the best thing to do as your new job knows you just quit and will think you may do the same to them,in some cases you may put them in a bad spot. If you can't give them 2 weeks try 1 week it looks good and the company will give a good recommendation.Good Luck to you

Answer 16

don't worry about a 2 week notice if you have only been there for one week to about 2 months (pretend you never worked there after you quit).



Anything longer, a two week notice is EXTREMELY important. You'll have to put this job down on future applications.... as new places interview you and look at your job history, they may call them to ask how cool of an employee you were. Then they'll say you just stopped showing up for work. You may never get a cool job for awhile afterwards.

Answer 17

You can always quit without giving 2 weeks notice. Nobody can force you to stay. It's only better if you give them notice if you ever need references. But if you don't care about references and really can't stand the job you can quit right away.

Answer 18

I belive that the best thing to do to quit w/o giving 2 weeks notice is to request for a week off.

Tell your boss you need to go to your cousins wedding and your part of the party. When your boss gives you that opportunity to leave the jpb and never come back..

Answer 19

If possible, have another job lined up before you "walk out." But if/when you do decide to quit, do it calmly, no yelling or causing a scene. Just tell them something like "I'm sorry, but I don't think I can be of service to you any longer and thank you for the opportunity you gave me." REMEMBER do this in a place where it's just you and the boss. (like in an office) NEVER create this scene in view of or earshot of the client/customers. Good Luck

Answer 20

No Walmart does no longer rehire you. You screwed them by employing leaving without giving 2 weeks be conscious. Walmart has your information on report and you're no longer rehireable. you will no longer have the prospect to screw them ever lower back. that's no longer extreme. that's called good administration. Walmart does not could desire to spell out the justifications that previous workers are no longer rehireable. The Walmart web site is a public web site and does not comprise company hiring standards.

Answer 21

Say I quit, and walk out the door. This is also known as "Burning your Bridges". Its considered good etiquette to give 2 weeks notice, but its not required by law or anything. UNless you work under contract, then it might be spelled out in the contract, but for most "employed at will" folks, that is the case

Answer 22

You can quit anytime -- you're employer can't stop you. It's just proper etiquette to give at least two weeks notice. It's never wise to burn bridges, however. You may need to use your current boss/employer in the future for references or networking. Ask yourself whether this may be the case.

Answer 23

Give your 2 weeks notice anyway but don't work those 2 weeks if you already have a new job lined up, nothing they can do about it.

Answer 24

Future job references not withstanding, there is also health insurance to consider. If you wish to continue your benefits under COBRA you will have to give your proper notice. You've put up with it this long, and there is light at the end of the tunnel, what's another 2 weeks?

Answer 25

Give 1 week it should be acceptable, but don't burn your bridge you never know when you may need a job. The key phrase at this point a "good standing" mark on your file.

Answer 26

Tell your boss you want to be frank with him, tell him how much he sucks, how much the company sucks, the other workers, things are unfair, office politics make things annoying, people don't pull their weight, you feel the company is going down the drain and then say you quit because you can't stand it anymore...unless they pay you more.

Answer 27

Walk out! and hope you never need them as a reference on your resume'. I did that maybe once or twice but it always left small gaps in my employment history but since I was fresh out of college no one seemed to really question it.

Answer 28

If your boss tortures you, and you either don't do what you're supposed to or whatever, what are they gonna do, FIRE YOU?



I like the pretend you never worked there part...

Answer 29

If you really want to quit just quit. It's a free country, they can't stop you. But if you want to get a good recommendation from them its best not to do this.
