You can be fired immediately, and you can terminate your employment just as fast.
However, if you ever want a reference in the future, i'd suggest at least a 2 weeks notice...don't burn ur bridges, u may havta cross them again. |

Even if you can quit immediately. Do not do it until you have another job you can start immediately. Most companies rather hire a person who is already employed. this tells them you are employable.
There are some jobs which may be critical to the company. These jobs require notification of termination from either side (Management and/or Employee). This allows the company to find a suitable person to fill the position you are about to vacate. They may even require you to train your replacement.
Check your terms of employment.
Good Luck |

if you have signed a contract, then he can reject it. otherwise, I know of no reason why you can't just quit. |

If you didnt sign a contract stating a time period for which you must work, then you are free to kick the boss in the rear and take off. ;-) Check and see if you live in an "At Will" employment state. READ THIS: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/At-will This means you can go for no reason... and they can fire you for no reason.
Good luck! |

Not unless you have a contractual obligation to remain; otherwise you are an employee "at will" and can leave with or without notice or cause. |

Not really. Just quit. But maybe ask for a written letter of recommendation IN ADVANCE of quitting. Once you get it, then you can quit. Employer will not go to the trouble of suing you, even if he has a valid contract, assuming it's not worth millions of dollars (like Elvis or somebody big). |

actually I did this a lot before, it depends at the beginning... On the the first days on the job, did your boss tell you to sign some forms, income tax, dependence and so forth.... Did you read a page that said, that the company can fire you without a reason, and vice versa that you can quit any time without a reason, and if you sign it, your free to go......
And since you wanting to quit anyways, does it really matter if your boss doesn't accepted? |
