You leave my office, do it with the quickness so as to avoid the 4E foot I'm swinging at your arse.

Everything I have read regarding previous court cases state that if the vacation is accrued and not gifted and you give proper notice of termination, that the company is obligated to pay earned unused vacation
It could be the case that what you've seen are instances where there were no written policies about unused vacation payouts. Most states don't require a payout, but do require that the employer puts no-payout language in writing (like in the employer handbook)

Depending on your role, you will be lucky if they allow you to work out your last two week and not just say thanks, but no thanks...
Lucky?
I was hoping they'd tell me I could go when I resigned and gave two weeks. I was shopping for last minute vacation deals.

What we typically do with our managers is the following: the employee puts in their 2-weeks notice, we terminate their employment immediately and pay them their full wages for two weeks. The employee gets a full two week paycheck on schedule and they do not have to work.
Yea this is pretty standard + unused vacation as mentioned.

When I quit they sent me to the job site no one wanted to be on.
I put my notice in 6 weeks out, but I knew they would keep me on as long as possible because of that job site.

I just switched jobs 2 months ago and this is how my former employer handled it. They also paid me for accrued vacation

first thing is never refer to it as severance since you are resigning and not being severed. i have heard of this in a couple of instances with small family owned cos. sometimes you find a generous owner that you have helped make a ton of money. he might do this but it is still rare. a large corp. will NEVER do this and set a precedent that severance is a benefit like retirement and would have to be given to everyone who resigned.
since your boss is a couple of states away maybe you can work out a deal to OVERSEE things in you spare time for a couple of months (until new guy up and running ) and get paid that way.
YOU WILL NOT GET A CENT UNLESS YOU ASK FOR IT SO TRY SOMETHING.

This depends on the state, in LA the employer is not obligated to pay for unused vacation. I believe like only 5-6 states force the employer to pay.
This is not correct. Not paying earned vacation is the same as not paying wages, not only can you collect but if they don't pay within a certain amount of time it can also trigger a penalty against the employer as well.
They have until your regular payday or 15 days to pay you. If they act in bad faith you can collect up to 90 days of regular pay, if you are highly compensated this works very well to motivate them to settle your dispute.
Not paying for a weeks vacation could cost them, that money, plus lawyers fees, plus court costs, plus up to 3 months of salary. It adds up fast.
