I'm doing fine without any meds. Probably a lot better than you.
You put your 2 weeks in at current job for a new job. You finish your 2 weeks and leave the job.

Couldn't be any plainer

Why would they be so crazy as to give you something like that when you walked out on the job? You sound like an irresponsible worker to me.
What? The OP WAS being responsible. They gave two weeks notice. They didn't "walk out" on the job. Walking out on the job means simply never showing up again.

exactly - why would OP say "2 weeks" if that wasn't notice.

Canovas, see the very first sentence in the original post of this thread. Doesn't seem he needs lessons on how to express himself but maybe you need lessons on reading comprehension.

The new job informs you that they have changed their mind, the position is no longer available and won't be needing you.

If you can't get your old job back, will you be approved for unemployment in New Jersey?

Oh I've read it, dear. Twice, to make sure. He just says "You put your 2 weeks in at current job for a new job."

It's extremely ambiguous. A proper post would read: "You put your 2 weeks NOTICE at current job". No wonder the manager changed his/her mind about hiring this guy/gal. If his/her English is as ambiguous in person, I wouldn't want to hire "it" either. "You put your 2 weeks in" could mean anything: what did you put in? Time? Work? Phallic objects into an orifice?

I can't believe you people.

I'm sorry, but when has "give 2 weeks" referred to anything other than "2 weeks notice"?!?!?
You're really grasping here (as in "at straws")!
