Hiya Dusty

The reason could be that what you've written here is about 10x more than you've written in your profle and more interesting...

All the best in finding whom you seek.

Chloe I sense you are itching to pull the trigger :-)
JERMANICUS..do you think courage can be learned?
Bravalady, deskjob :-)
john, we are free to trust whom we like.
Ghostrider, if they let you take your bike?
Harmony, what an excellent scale by which to measure.

It seems the compensation part is much less
important than..the cause and the need.

Why is it that, as an employee, it's customary to give a two week notice, but the same doesn't apply to the employer?

I put in my two weeks notice today and was told I should just leave at the end of the week. I was showing respect to the company and my co-workers by giving them notice and not just walking out the door and not coming back. I'm glad I had already found a new job. It bothers me though that I told them I needed to put in my notice and couldn't start for two weeks and now I am going to be out of a job for those two weeks.

It seems wrong that companies can show such little respect to their workers and cut them off like they were never there. I can understand if you break a rule or something that would require immediate removal. If it's just not working out, shouldn't you get the same notice from your employer to find a new job that they expect from you to find a new employee?
