According to Califorinia Labor
"If an employee not having a written contract for a definite period quits his or her employment, his or her wages shall become due and payable not later than 72 hours thereafter, unless the employee has given 72 hours previous notice of his or her intention to quit, in which case the employee is entitled to his or her wages at the time of quitting. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, an employee who quits without providing a 72-hour notice shall be entitled to receive payment by mail if he or she so requests and
designates a mailing address. The date of the mailing shall
constitute the date of payment for purposes of the requirement to
provide payment within 72 hours of the notice of quitting."

California - There wasn't a 72 hours notice before I quit, I was under the impression that during your probation, and being "at will" I could of ended the relationship or vice versa at any time with out reason. Which is what I did. So when should I get my last check then?
