      In the US there is no notice period for firing in “at-will” states (which is all except Montana). It goes both directions though, there is no notice period when quitting. So chances are, if the OP is in the US, the boss was full of it.

            Eh, if you’re really done and just refuse to do anything they say, they’ll have you discharged inside a month. The couple times I saw it happen it actually looked like a relief on both sides. Nobody bothered the guy leaving anymore, and he would willingly do office chores again for the last 3 or 4 weeks.

            Of course you don’t get all of your benefits, you can never come back, and the re-enlistment codes are regularly leaked so any HR will know how you left the second they see your discharge form.

            When it gets nasty and takes months is when the leadership wants someone gone and the soldier insists on trying to to stay.

      The key is to dip after changing the password on the vital database they decided one person was enough to manage ;)

      Pretty sure this kind of sabotage can expose one to legal consequences
