A!EX!	Nope, you should sue him. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Danjc	No you can go for two weeks severence pay now because that was not a valid reason to fire you Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

eriamax	Technically he owes you the pay. Wait for your leave papers, on them there is a code which tells why you are leaving. If the code is for the quit, then he owes you the pay. I hope you kept a copy of your two weeks notice??? Then again, this is canadian law. If you live somewhere else I might be way off. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

.	No, I don't believe it is. Contact your local labor board and ask them. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

ptcanon	You already resigned from your employer. They aren't firing you, they are simply releasing you from your obligations. And yes, they are well within their right to do so. Not the answer you perhaps want since you want the pay, but maybe you can ask your new employer if you can start early. And if that doesn't work, take the week off. Just move on. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

alf	he can do whatever he wants. not illegal. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Iceman	If you were working for an "at will" job . . . then it's perfectly legal. If you ever signed anything saying your job could be terminated for any reason at anytime . . .yeah It's a dick move, but legal. I feel for you, hopefully you'll get another answer that is more helpful. good luck Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Dan H	Sure it is, especially in an employment at will state. Most people who quit their jobs aren't producing work at the expected rate, or bosses believe they aren't motivated, since they have already quit. Many companies have policies that require an employee who gave notice to be sent home. Some companies will pay for that time as a severance package, but they are not required to. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Azul	I don't think so... you should call a human rights place and ask... they will tell you your rights there. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

E. F. Hutton	Probably. In most places employment is "at will." You can be fired for any reason at anytime. If that reason is unjust or no reason is given you may be entitled to unemployment compensation or back pay. If it's discriminatory then a lawsuit could be brought against them. Otherwise it's all fair. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Corona	I don't know...I honestly always thought the two weeks notice was for the person you were working for, as a courtesy to them, rather than just quitting with no notice....but legally, I'm not sure. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Tina Get The Axe!	unfortunately yes it is its usually better not too give notice until the day before your last day. And no you cant sue or anything its just like getting fired is it legal to get fired.......? yes. So yes he can do what ever he pleases Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Jaycie	Yes, I think so. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

T-money	I don't think it's legal. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

TexanNFLGirl	no, he can't fire you after you have put in your two week's notice, but yes he can go ahead and have you to leave prior to your two weeks being up with the company, But by law, because you gave a two week notice, he still has to pay you any time that is due to you. Vacation, or sick if the company pays that out at the end of your separation with the company. I would take my two weeks and confirmed that I will be getting whatever pay is due to me and enjoy the time off before starting my new job. good luck.!!! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

sexysweetnina21	Probably not but i am sure he can get away with it Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

mushu	maybe yes............maybe no..... Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

iamthatguy10	wait until after your check is due, then take your boss to a small claims court. your contract should include that you are to give 2 weeks notice, and if you did so, the court will rule in your favor Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

idk. gues who	no Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

chocolahoma	Yes, yes and yes. Lots of companies decline the offer of two-week's notice. They don't think its a good value to provide a paycheck to a person who will not do any work. Its just as fair as your intention to sponge off the company for two weeks and still get your complete paycheck. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Passion Parties by Tina	I don't think it is illegal. You can try and seek legal advice, but most likely he will cover his butt in the situation. If you have someone to back you then it will be better. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Ace A	noo... once your quit then you quit, your done he cant fire some one who quit! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

dizzy	well even if it isn't there is nothing you could do. if you tried to fight back it would never be worth it (time or money). your boss could easily claim some sort of fault on your part, of he could just say he was meaning to fire you anyways and there is no way you could prove otherwise. basically your ex-boss is an asshole. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
