...do you give a two weeks notice? If so when?
I usually give it the day I want to quit after I got my most recent check...in the past the employer will ask if I want to leave sooner.
I just thinking about this...my friend works as a bank teller and she gave hers on payday and they took back her check with the account she had with them!  |

yeah I could see that. in some positions , only giving 2 wks notice will get you shot . Folks get mad when you don't give them time to find a good replacement; also they want you to assist in training.
| When I got pregnant and started to show, my employers saw the writing on the wall, so they really couldn't say nothing but say come back later when the baby is 1 y/o Did train my replacement. Never came back, however.

I want to give a 2 weeks notice but now employers want you to start immediately. It sucks b/c I want the new job but I don't want to burn bridges with the old job

Isn't that illegal taking a paycheck back? must be more to the story. Maybe her money came up short in her drawer and they docked her for it...

For the most part, I do. In the event that I can't, I try to give them at least a week/week and a half notice. I was always told that it's the right thing to do. You never want to burn any bridges and you don't know if, for whatever reason, you'll have to come back or call on them for something. Also, if you use them as a reference, you would want them to say positive things about you.

Ive given a two week notice usually a month or so in advance.
