If your employer gives you 2 weeks notice of employment termination, did you lose your job?

After all, it only applies to future payroll periods.



Yes you lost your job, and will not receive money in the future. Money from a job is in exchange for services rendered to company. It's reasonable to say you can't lose something you haven't yet received, but it is also normal to say they're losing money given they had an incredibly high likelihood of actually receiving it.
