If you still work there, then just do your job. If you have a problem with her, talk to her about it.
If at all possible, it's nice to have good refrences.

The problem with that is the money...in the future, don't be so short on funds that people can walk on you like this and you have no recourse. Second problem is you'll never get a recommendation from this place.
someone correct me if i'm wrong but i think past employers can only legally give specifics like compensation and dates of employment.
So, it doesn't mean they can't say things like "Yes, he worked here until June/05, and we were so damn happy to see him leave."

Really though, if somebody was treating me like that I'd not stand for it for a minute.

Well... money really isn't an issue. I have alot saved up, its just I don't want to touch that money. I see this paycheck as extra stuff for my new appartment. So, I can easily get by with out this paycheck. I never ever have been treated here like the way I have these past two weeks. Plus, I have friends here that I would not want to hurt just cause of her. I dunno...

Then call her on it!!! Ask/tell her she has no right to treat you the way she is treating you. That you have done everything above board. Quite frankly, you are in a unique situation...you can literally tell her to fvck off (not recommended ;) ) and that the road travels two ways. If that is how she wants to treat someone leaving, tell her that you will put the word out.

<rant>I recently put in my two weeks notice at my current employer. I gave them ample notice and now the owner of the company is riding my coat tails. She has never in my entire year here treated me the way she has now. She is constantly pulling me into her office and saying I need to focus on my assignments (which I have all completed) and to quit being a distraction to the co-workers here. She also, yelled at me for flirting with the receptionist here at work. She said "You can do that after hours." What really pisses me off is that she is only doing it to me. Everyone else here sees that except for her. I literally can not leave my desk with out getting in trouble. Too top that off, I got in trouble for just sitting at my desk yesterday. OMG... granted I am the only systems engineer here, the other one left for a internship @ Microsoft, but do not treat me like I need to be watched 24/7.

Today, she hires a new guy and is all friendly to me in front of him and then slams me when he walks away. She said make sure you teach him everything you know before Friday.

Honestly, if I did not need this weeks check to pay for furniture for my move to D.C. I would seriously just walk out but she is really riding my last nerve? I do not know if I can hold out till Friday.
</rant>

Why the hell would you do that ?

well...you can "teach" him everything you know :evil:

you are in a unique position to do one of two things:

1 take the disrespect that is being dished out to you by that woman and do nothing about it, even though you have nothing to lose and let her crush the last shred of dignity you have at that company but have some nice new furniture at your new place, but always thinking about how you should have stood up for yourself

2. stand up to her, tell her your a grown person who has done their job and does not deserve being treated as a child and walk out, later on enjoy that cold beer with satisfaction and a smile on your face as you relive that glorious moment over and over at your new place sitting on a milk crate but with your dignity intake
