"Customary" died a long time ago. The requirements of your position are spelled out in your Employee Manual, which in the states is treated as your employment contract, unless otherwise explicitly specified. Left coast states don't have a requirement to give notice, either by employer or employee, before terminating employment. Some companies stipulate notice.
The bottom line is that employment is a reciprocal arrangement. You've had the experience of being told to "get out", which defines nicely your reciprocal responsibility for notice, loyalty, etc. The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) has no requirements that a company must give notice to an employee prior to a termination or lay-off. Check your state department of labor for specific state requirements.

My accountant has advised me to always have a rainy day fund for just such an occurence.I've been a consultant for 40 years now and hearing this is nothing new to my ears.
Having a monetary cushion albeit a small one does give one comfort and confidence in that situation. You must adjust your own budget not to spend every last dime each paycheck.
Only then will you begin to manage your life better...
Good luck I know you will will find something better.
It always works out that way...or er almost always anyhow!

I have always somewhat respected and admired the cleverness and resourcefullness of my cousin Bob.
Once we had the misfortune to be in a bank when it was being held up. The robbers demanded that we all empty our pockets and hand over our cash and jewelry. Bob turned to me and said "uh by the way, here's that $20 that I owe you."

A few years back, the Beeb showed a Horizon documentary about kids with progeria. An awful condition for sure. Remembering it now it puts all our other problems into perspective. Sam might have been one of them featured in the program.

Intel® App Innovation Contest 2013[^] announced their winners.
The cool thing is that 6 of the 9 winners were CodeProject member entries, including the Grand PrizeScribblify[^].
Foremost, Congrats to CodeProject on such the achievement. That's awesome! 
Thing is, though, Scribblify, an already an available/commercial product.
As I read the contest, it seems to be geared toward new & innovative products, and not already-available products merely adapted to the Lenovo All-in-One.
Or am I missing something here?

That's a shame as such an idea would be the canine's testes.

What a waste of a morning! A customer called early and mentioned that they could not reply to an email I had sent yesterday. It was trying to send to an email account that I closed over a month ago...but that wasn't the account that I sent it from...WTE? I went to my Sent Items and sure enough, they show with the old email address, not the outlook.com account that it clearly showed when the email was being composed. I checked all the account settings and all seemed to be correct. An hour and half a dozen test emails later, it appears that Outlook was using the old alias for my Microsoft account, not the new and correct one which had been set as the Primary over two months ago! I deleted the old alias and now it works. Thanks MS for changing the 'from' address for me! What was I thinking?

The first time I tried to set up outlook (older version) I found out to late that the default setting (buried real deep) was to delete all mail from the server.
At the time there was not a way to recover them.

It could be worse, much worse. Just wait until Outlook forgets to remind you about a pending anniversary.

During a robbery, one of the robbers' mask slid down. He looked at a man and asked, "Did you see my face?"
The man said "Yes!". So the robber shot him dead.
Then he asked a woman, "Did you see my face?" She said, "No, but my husband over there did."
