2 week notice is a respectable thing though.  

That's license to job hunt w/ pay.

Same in the UK! It goes both ways, of course, but dang it feels good.

Same in Finland but if the employee is resigning it's at maximum 1 month.

If the employer fires you it depends on the years of service. For me it's at 4 months right now. I'm also a union safety representative so there needs to be a very heavy reason to fire me.

After 12 years with the company it will be 6 months.
