Never left without notice, but I love playing devil's advocate.
Scenario: It's a week before Thanksgiving. You have a wife and kids, with a wife that works full time. Your company sends you a letter. "We're moving out of state and you have 3 weeks to decide if you are coming. No severance if you don't go."
The above happened to friends of mine.
If you find a new employer that will hire you, but only if you join them right away, are you leaving your current company without notice?
Someone above mentioned honor. Is there not honor in looking out for one's family? Seems to me that companies sometimes set the terms on how things go. That's one of the things that's crappy about not working for yourself.
