I am planning to give 30 days notice to my employer next week. I've been working for her over 4 years. I feel she may take it personally (as she tends to do) and let me go right then and there. Can she do that without paying me for the rest of my time?

Yes. If your employment contract or employee handbook did not state otherwise, your employment is "at will". This means that you can leave without giving notice and company can let you go without notice as well. Your boss can most definitely let you go right then and there.

Yes, she can but with you giving her a 30 day notice i don't see why she would. I think i would make that notice a 2 week notice. I guess you just need to be prepared for the worst.

You need to consult your employee manual for the company policy. Are you required to give 30 days notice? If so, even if your employer decides to let you go early, she must pay you for the remaining days. You cannot be fired once you have given notice, but she can ask that you leave right away. You also are entitled to be paid for unused vacation days. Again, it is best to consult your employee handbook.

Wait and give the customary 2 weeks notice. Use an actual letter. Keep a copy for documentation. You've done your part and if she asks stupid and lets you go immediately then you have only lost 2 weeks of pay.

She needs a valid reason to sack you. Just be sure to tell her how much she has taught you, how she has been as much a friend as an employer, and that you hate feeling like you are letting her down, but a great new opportunity has come up for you. Cry a bit if you can. She would have to be made of stone not to be moved.

Yes she can, but if you are giving the courtesy of a 30 day notice (normal is 2 weeks) why would she do that?

Yes she can. I worked for a company in Memphis, TN that let you go on the spot if you tried to give notice. NO ONE was allowed to give notice and return to their desk. ......Sales Company.

yes. If you want to leave in 30 days, don't announce your intentions until 30 days are up.

It depends on where you live and what your job is; each have different regulartions for this. Contact the labor board (in Canada each province has a different one) in your area to be sure.

If she wants to, she can. If you put in notice to leave, there is no reason she has to keep you on payroll if she doesn't want to. Sucks that some people are like that.
