Do you have to give a two week notice?

Yes, basically all you have to do is what people have said,

the 2 weeks notice,
stop going,
or just say I quit and leave.

Though usually the first option is the best, especially if you're in good standing there and want to have them as like a reference. Though if you really didn't enjoy the place it was probably because of the people running it, so you may not get a good reference there anyway.

Do what I did. My manager was walking up to me, and I said, "I'm giving my notice."

Tell your manager or boss that you want to quit. Don't just stop going, cause you'll have difficulty getting a new job, as your previous job's owners will put it on your records that you just stopped going. Be responsible about it, they won't get mad at you for wanting to quit.

It's good to see people offering decent suggestions in a serious thread.

Yeah, come on people, had this been some stupid question I wouldn't care so much, but this is in my opinion something that's actually important...

In other words, if you don't have any serious comments to post, they'll probably be deleted, so don't even bother.

Firstly, good point kirk.

Secondly, why would anybody come to these forums about that? Ask your parents and ask your real life friends. I asked everybody I knew what I should do. I was really nervous. Hell yes, but I had another higher paying job at a place I actually wanted to work at, so I quite this cashier job I had to become a sales associate. I love my work, and it took me a long time to get over the guilt of cheating my manager out of a worker (It had been my first job and I was 1 week out of training). So, my case is extreme, but you get the point. Go with what you want. I will never reference my old manager because its resumeic suicide. My school made me do community service, which is how I got hired mostly (I volunteered at a Home for the old and ill and at the end they offered me a job). Do what you think is best, but remember to keep in consideration of other people around you that have more experience.

I can only hope, as well as the members of this forums, that you will make the right decision.
