Does a landlord giving you an exaggerated 3 day pay or quit notice break your lease agreement?

You can leave at anytime if you forgo your deposit, paycheck or any vacation or back pay. Rental agreements usually have 30/60/90 day notification agreements. If you leave before the end of your lease, even with notice most places will expect you to pay up for the remainder of the lease. If you are in the military, rules may be different, but there is still an expectation that you will pay for the month that you leave and give notice. For work, two weeks' notice was the old standard. However, in these times of layoffs, employees with companies at risk are cutting the notice if they have a job that will start before then.
