2 weeks notice? (Score:1, Informative)
If someone is going to be a problem, you can just let them go in most states. If you feel bad about letting them go, give the 2 weeks pay. You don't have to and you can let them go any time.
People think there is some mythical 2 week rule. No mater where you work, you could be let go tomorrow for any reason without notice.
So if this guy was some kind of problem they should have just given him his walking papers. If it was something else, well they are just stupid anyway.
