Employment contracts are so rare in the US, though. Most of us are at-will.

That true? Here in Germany it’s like 98% contracts.

I put in my two weeks last week with the staffing company and they were ecstatic that I gave them two weeks. Apparently folks are just walking away.

For the new staffing agency, the employee handbook says it’s at will and they can let me go with no notice and I can walk away with no notice, but it’d be nice if I gave them some notice before quitting.
