They have to pay you for each and every hour you have worked. It all depends on your contract as to what the penalty is. Its something you agreed to.
Usually though, you can walk out without a penalty.

Well in 2 and a half months you cannot even get to break into a new pair of jeans so there is no love lost between you and your employer.

No reason for any hard feelings if you leave and no reason for you to hanker for your money if it not paid !!! Sorry pal that was a joke.

If you have put in X hours / days of work you have to be paid whether the employer likes it or not. However, you have to meet the terms of employment and if it says 2 weeks notice, well you have to give that notice or be prepared to compensate the company with the amount of pay for that period or whatever imaginative computation HR and Finance come up with.

My advice :
- give notice
- go to office even if it makes you sick
- get all you rmoney

if you can get by:
- then just walk out.
- you dont need the company on your resume

A Company owes you for the hours on your time card .
If you give notice , they are suppose to have your final check ready on your last day . Otherwise , you wait for the check in the mail on who knows what day .
The 'quit without notice' thing will more likely screw you when you try for another job , says you are a lame flake .
Who wants to hire that .
Get another job first , then give notice and since you were a short timer , 1 week notice would be OK , unless you were paid a huge hiring bonus .

do you want to show good character or bad character? then there's your work ethic, do you have any. just because you hate your job is no real reason for leaving without notice. don't knee-jerk, give your notice and do your time. this way they can find someone else and you still get paid until you find another job. in certain industries the company will usually end your relationship with you first and keep you on the payroll til time served. hence free money and a good reference in some cases. good luck in the new job!

Just a suggestion. Always give proper notice. This might be 1 week, 2 weeks or more, depending on the job.

As a retired manager, I looked unfavorably on applicants who did not give previous employers proper notice. I also looked into gaps in their employment history, since most applicants exclude jobs where they did not leave on the best of terms.

They have to pay you regardless. Say you left and they owed you money. Whenever that money would be due if you were still working is the latest they have to pay you.

If they don't you can report it to the local or state wage and hour board and they'll make them pay. Plus give them fines on top of it.

I think it depends on what state your in, but i'm almost positive they have to pay you for your time. The only thing I would worry about is if you list this job on your resume. If your new employer calls this one, obviously they will find out your not very reliable.

They don't have to pay you if you did not give notice. Because you wasn't there for more than 3 months.

they have to pay you, but I would suggest giving them some kind of notice even if it is 3 days just because you want them as a reference in the future

you would still need to be paid for the time you worked. you might not want to use this employer as a reference if you leave on bad terms.
