If I'm quitting a retail job do I need to keep working my hours for the remaining week or give a 2 week notice?

I just got a job at Petsmart last week, and already know it's not the job for me and the management sucks. I applied to be a stocker and cashier but was put in pet care (with the fish, reptiles, and small animals) which I did not ask to do and they did not tell me I would be over there. I've told them i feel really uncomfortable being put over there by myself because I know nothing about fish and small animals, and can never answer the customers question. I don't work today, but is it wrong to go up there and quit, and not work my hours on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday? I just hate the management so much they don't care about anyone even if you tell them you're uncomfortable in the store. Who leaves a new employee by themselves after one week of horrible training?

you give them a two week notice to quit and you are expected to continue working the schedule they give you
it might be that with this notice they will cut your hours, but you comply with the change until your notice is fulfilled

If you really don't like the job, you can quit by all means. However, do know that most companies will not train you with everything you need to do. Sometimes you have to learn on your own and research in order to supplement the training or whatever is lacking there.

yes because you have to secure your job

Lots of retail places do, but some are better at training then others. When I first started in retail I was shown areas of the store and they told me to "get to work". At least I was a customer in the store before so I basically knew where things were. Their register training was slightly better then that.
If you need the money then try to stick it out until you can get another job. If you have to quit then give them two weeks notice and a resignation letter. Inform them if you're not coming in for your final shifts.

Offer two weeks notice, always, regardless of the job. Your employer may or may not accept it.

Apply for other jobs and get a new one lined up before you quit. You were lucky to get a job, but jobs are so hard to get, and it's supposed to be easier to find another job while you're still working. Also, if you quit, you won't be entitled to job seekers or any unemployment benefit, as you would have made yourself unemployed, and if you you've got bills to pay, you need an income, so get a new job to walk into and THEN quit this one. That's what responsible adults who don't like their jobs do. And give 2 weeks notice, so you leave on good terms with the company so they can give you a good reference for a new employer,

Be polite. They might know people at the next place you apply. Thank them for the opportunity and then politely tell them the job is not working out / is not right for you / you for it / and you do not want to waste their time continuing to train you. OFFER to work the rest of the week ( F S Sun) so that they can adjust the schedule, but they might let you go on the spot. {Come December, make sure they have your current mailing address so that they can send you your W-2.}

The right thing to do is give them a notice, but most people just make a phone call and just say I quit, they are use to that sort of thing actually
