The two weeks notice never seemed to work out well for me but just leaving without any notice dosen't seem right, so what , in y'all opinions are the best was to quit a job in a professional manner.

If your quitting for more money go to the head honcho. Tell him you have another job offer for x amount of money and see if they will match it or offer you some other incentive. If not be polite and give him a written two week notice.
Those who would give up essential liberty, to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety. Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790)

It’s your reputation your dealing with. Do whatever you want to be known for!

if you got the new job lined up , you go to your manager or managers that you report to with a letter in hand.
to whom it may concern I wolfie have accepted a position with another company for better opportunities my last day is today +14 I am willing to help train my replacement through my last day.
thankyou wolfie
I have never not worked till the last hour of my last day then again I have only left 3 jobs in 30 years everyone said thankyou and if you ever want to come back we would be happy to have you.

America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

Why is the two week thing not working? Best way to leave to make sure you get all your PTO and possible some extra weeks pay, or they tell you not to come in and still have to pay you for those weeks when i left my hospital job. Also keeps some avenues open if for some reason you need to go back there. X 2 only had one place told me not to do the 2 weeks.
Some individuals use statistics as a drunk man uses lamp-posts — for support rather than for illumination.

How you leave a company also speaks to the one you are joining. Do it right.

That's a bit of a loaded question without a cut and dried answer. There are variables at play which will dictate the proper procedure. Generally, discuss it with (whoever) and come to a mutual agreement that fits the scenario at hand. Do your part by being the good guy the best you can. Don't scar your reputation any more than may be necessary. Hope you're "movin' on up"
