When someone is terminated, they are usually given two weeks severance (sometimes more) which is equivalent to two weeks notice, except they don’t have to work those two weeks and can use those days looking for a new job.

Maybe if you’re in a nice cushy white collar job, but I’ve seen lots of people fired, and the only ones who ever got severance pay was a manager. Maybe you live in a friendlier state.

I have been an employer for 40 years. I have never paid a penny in severance pay. And if someone quits and gives me notice they will realize that the only thing I notice is that they are being pushed out the door, with no pay.
