I would give notice. I like a number of my immediate coworkers and a couple of them are my friends. I would want to do proper knowledge handoff so they wouldn’t have to struggle unnecessarily. That said, I certainly wouldn’t be motivated to perform my day-to-day job duties. I’d probably just stay long enough to teach people things, write up some documentation, answer outstanding questions, and then leave my job. I doubt I have enough important information in my head that it would require two-weeks-worth of knowledge-transfer activities.
Yeah, just you tell yourself that.
Are there people out there that will happily continue in their job? Sure, probably, those that absolutely love doing said job. But for the vast majority the disconnect between the grind of daily work and the millions sitting in the bank account will mean that good intentions about helping out will very quickly fade away.
Thats just realism and like I said, if people are actually being honest and realistic with themselves you will find that in the end most people do indeed think like me. Its just easy to pretend otherwise on the internet.
I’ve always wondered how long I could not show up for work and still collect a paycheck since I have multiple co-workers who seem to have mastered this.
Pretty sure I would resign effective immediately but I’d have to do some research on my benefits, pension, etc… I didn’t work for all these years to pay into them to just walk away, $100 million notwithstanding.
Years ago, I had an employee who won over $7 million and stuck around for almost a year because he was waiting on a grievance arbitration and a settlement for retroactive pay… which he eventually did not receive. 
I wouldn’t quit effective immediately and I might even offer to stay on as a consultant because I enjoy a lot of what I do. I’d just do it much less frequently.
I’d keep my job. I like what I do and have plenty of vacation time to take time off if I want.
I would give 2 weeks notice instantly and transition my work as soon as humanly possible. I wouldn’t leave them in the lurch as long as they cooperate in the transition but there is no way I’m working 8 hr days and accepting the moronic delays and irritations that I have to now.
My husbands plan is to not quit and just tell the plain, unmoderated truth until they fire him. i.e. “Why no, that’s actually the stupidest idea I’ve ever heard, why would you think of doing that?”
I don’t have his patience though 
I walk dogs to for two different small pet sitting agencies. They would really have to scramble to cover my shifts if I just up and quit. I like both owners, so I would definitely give notice.
The last job I had I was there for 25 years, I might not even bother to resign. I would just stop showing up and let them fire me. That what I would feel like doing anyway. In reality I might go back and spend a few days just tieing up some loose ends.
I’d keep working. It took a hell of a lot of work to get to where I am and I’m not fucking off after 11 months on the job. They’d better give me a covered parking spot for my shiny new McLaren though.
I like my job, and my employers are really nice people. They have provided me with a good living for 37 years. I would wait until I had the machinations of the lottery payout set, and I would give them probably thirty day’s notice.
I’d give two weeks notice, although I probably wouldn’t really be too diligent for those two weeks. I’d basically train my replacement in the first week, and keep an eye on them for the second and answer questions or point out pitfalls. But I’d be showing up at 10, and leaving at 3 with a 2 hour lunch in there.
If, by some chance, those two weeks fell across one of our quarterly all-hands informational meeting, I’d ask management every pointed and embarrassing question that we’ve all wanted to ask, but nobody’s had the courage to stand up and ask alone. I’d also make every pointed observation about the way we’re treated. After all, what are they going to do at that point- fire me?
Sure. Possibly more than two weeks, if it took longer to find my replacement.
I’d likely give up to a month to find and train a replacement. Coming into work would probably be easier if I knew it had a definite “retirement” date and I like my workplace and employer.
My primary job is professor at a community college. Now, I don’t feel like I owe my employer anything: At a community college, there’s the understanding that there is no loyalty at all in either direction. I do, however, feel like I owe my students, and so I would stay on at that job until the end of the semester.
My secondary job is substitute teaching. No notice at all is necessary there: You can just stop accepting jobs. But I enjoy it, so I probably would keep doing that, too… though I would get a lot more selective about which jobs I would take.
I also tutor, and again, that’s something that I enjoy, but I would prefer not to have to charge the students to do it. If I had won the lottery, I’m sure I could find some place to do volunteer tutoring, so I suppose I would “quit” that job.
In that case, I’m out the door right away. Two weeks notice is generally given if you might want to come back or need a good reference. With 100 million I never need to work again.
I’m currently self-employed, but back when I wasn’t, I gave several months’ notice so my boss could find a replacement.
I’d want to get all my financial ducks in a row before I take the money, so I’d stick with my job as long as that took. After that, I’d just give two weeks and then walk out. I like my boss, so two weeks wouldn’t be an issue for me.
Actually, “Everyone agrees with me and they just don’t want to admit it totally anonymously on an Internet message board” is pretty much the definition of a lazy argument you’d only find on the Internet.
Personally, I’ll let everyone speak for themselves, as opposed to portraying myself as knowing what everyone else thinks in their heart of hearts.
I’d give a months’ notice, switch to finishing up items I’ve already started and have new ones shifted to other people (the best way to minimize any extra burden on my soon-to-be-former cow orkers), and spend more and more of the remaining time at work on transition administrivia (e.g. moving my personal stuff home in easy stages, switching health insurance, etc).
Thats nice, have a cookie.
Eta: Also, I never said they agreed with me, I said they were fooling themselves. Not the same thing.
