    Should I give a two weeks' notice?

    Jedrnurse replied to neuron's topic in General Nursing

    If you've been there a year, stick it out the two weeks. It'll go by (relatively) quickly and you won't have the black mark of having quit without notice. Even if you don't care what this facility...
