Toxic managers or coworkers

pay/benefits don't trickle down
shit trickles down

what I've learned is that 2 week notices only gives time for corporations to replace you with another unsuspecting victim so I'm just gonna run as soon as I can tell my work environment is toxic

these toxic workplaces can crumble for all I care

In my field of work, two weeks isn't long enough to pull in someone new, but I do use the period to hand off as much as possible to those who I don't want to set up to fail.

If there's nobody to hand things off to, I just slack off and use it as free money until my next gig.

both are totally fair opinions/decisions

personally I've been in too many toxic companies that I couldn't stomach staying even a day within the company

I find it's a lot easier to deal with toxicity when your fucks reach absolute zero

Absolutely. You stop caring about the work and start counting those coins.
