Scenario: You put your 2 weeks in at current job for a new job. You finish your 2 weeks and leave the job.
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?

This is just the reason for not giving notice when you leave a job. Yes I know it's good manners and blah, blah,blah. but when companies decide to fire you they don't give notice and they don't care.
The last part time job I had I gave two weeks notice and two days later on a Sun. morning they told me they didn't need me anymore.
Who knows about unemployment? If you have the minimum time working you should be able to collect.
Tough spot, did you quit or did you get fired? |

Besides kicking the a-hole hiring manager in the privates at the "new" job, you may be out of luck
Ever tried groveling?  |

I don't see how it would be logical for someone to get unemployment insurance in this scenario.

This may be a little extreme, it's not worth an arrest record. However, this kind of behavior can't go unpunished. I'd wait until the manage leaves work, find out what car he drives and flatten all 4 tires the next day while he's at work. |

Oh and like that won't lead to an arrest record? It may be more difficult to find the perpetrator, but not impossible.
You are condoning law-breaking. That's reprehensible. Get your moral priorities straightened out now. |

Sounds like you had it all planned out, doesn't it? Start to take personal responsibility for your actions. You walked out on the job - how do you expect to get unemployment insurance?
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. |

If I were to put in two weeks notice, it would be because I have a signed offer from another company.
If they renege on the promise of employment at the last possible second, why shouldn't someone be eligible for unemployment? The prior employer might not be able to take the employee back, and then they would be screwed |
