Show it anywayBut, now you're already offered the job and can start immediately! Boss' fault for screwing himself over by firing you right off the bat.
I hear of this happening a lot now. People are getting so petty, I don't think it is even worth it to do the courtesy anymore, which is sad.
Sadly in a lot of companies this is the norm or at least relatively common. I watched my ex company walk several people out the door for giving notice. Then laughed when they got mad at me for giving 2 weeks notice because they weren't going to be able to replace me in 2 weeks and said I should have let them know earlier. Why would I?
Always give exactly 2 weeks notice - never more, never less.
they did. They got fired immediately for it
That’s bullshit! They need to pay you pro rata for the work you’ve done, plus any vacation benefit you’ve accrued. Get an employment lawyer to write them a letter demanding what is rightfully yours.
It's not a wrongful termination if the employee quits. It's more of not paying wages owed to an employee.
Unless you live in a thrid world country it is probably illegal.
Tell your former coworkers. Tell them that their company prefers you just quit immediately
That sucks in California if you put in your 2 week notice and they fire you they still have to pay you for the 2 weeks.
Not unless they're under a contract that says otherwise. They do still have to be paid for time already worked, but here in California (could be different elsewhere) the employer has a few days to get that done.
