We've all heard stories about (or perhaps experienced) a quick escort to the parking lot upon giving the normal notice, and I've never heard of a company giving a two-week notice to an employee that's being laid off or fired. A generation ago, providing a lengthy notice was required to get a glowing reference, but these days does a reference hold water any more? Once you're reached the point where you know it's time to leave, under what circumstances would you just up and walk out or give only a short notice?" http://a.fsdn.com/sd/twitter_icon_large.png (http://twitter.com/home?status=Ask+Slashdot%3A+When+Is+It+OK+To+Not+G ive+Notice%3F%3A+http%3A%2F%2Fbit.ly%2F13Dujfy) http://a.fsdn.com/sd/facebook_icon_large.png (http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fask.slashdot.org%2Fstory %2F13%2F08%2F15%2F2128208%2Fask-slashdot-when-is-it-ok-to-not-give-notice%3Futm_source%3Dslashdot%26utm_medium%3Dface book) http://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/gplus-16.png (http://plus.google.com/share?url=http://ask.slashdot.org/story/13/08/15/2128208/ask-slashdot-when-is-it-ok-to-not-give-notice?utm_source=slashdot&utm_medium=googleplus)
