I'd be very careful with this. While it's true that this can happen, you could be burning a lot of bridges if you did this. I would see how other people are treated when they quit and see if they get rid of people right away or honor the two week notice before pulling this. You could make the entire department hate you on top of obviously never being able to work at that company again.

Not sure how giving a day or two notice vs 10 (two weeks) is going to matter in the big picture for anyone. You'll be clocking in/out 9-5 and distracted by people (hopefully) wishing you well. Anything you do will need extra review.

You can certainly put to paper in a day what your daily job responsibilities are as well as any outstandings on current projects.

As to working at the company again, the odds are probably low as you would not be leaving if things were good for you. Are they not paying you well enough? Is the job not challenging enough? Will they not move you to another area more suited to your talents/aspirations?

The only exception I could see would be leaving because of a move to accomodate a spouse but then again, would the company view you as reliable in the future?
