I usually try to provide the courtesy of a 2 week notice. I've even stayed 3 weeks at a previous employer's request and found them a suitable replacement. However, at one of my jobs a COO yelled at me in front of everyone over an issue he could've resolved himself by sending out a well written email like I had done. He thought I should just start tearing code apart to "find" a solution until 12am if that's what it took. I told him that I was not doing anything until I spoke with our vendor and that he will just have to wait until the vendor responds as 24 hours had not even passed since I sent the email. The CTO didn't even defend me. Well the next day it turns out that I had done the write thing and that the COO and friends had changed the admin settings and broke the system. No code needed to be changed like I suspected. They just needed to use the admin settings correctly. The COO did not even apologize for yelling at me in front of everyone. On top of that he still owes me $400. So yea... Three weeks later I had an offer in hand and a vacation starting the next day that I had already paid for the month prior. What do you think I did? I gave my two weeks notice and hopped on the plane. I can think of a time when I probably should've quit on the first day. It was right after they told me they use SVN and half of their code base was located in their content management system which was comprised of some messy jsp files some html css and a mountain of horribly written javascript (This javascript had one letter variable names everywhere that were not the result of a build tool and not simply located in for loops). I hated every second of it. Yet, I still managed to work there for a year and I gave a two week notice.
