Default Burn the bridge or not!

I'm moving to another city in a couple weeks and will be playing poker professionally.
(I'll be living rent free at my bros place for ~8 months. He stayed with me for awhile in the past so I'll take advantage of cheap living for a bit)

The job I have now is a crappy $10/hr dead end p.o.s. I've been there 2 & 1/2 years.
I've been playing around with the idea of not showing up till they lay me off. With this job your not fired, your layed off if they don't want you.
If I take that route I could go on UnEmployment Insurance for many months [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
Of course it could screw up the old resume down the road.
I could be responsible and put in 2 weeks notice.

One thing to mention, the last 6 months I've called in sick many times (way too many infact). I'm not even sure they would provide a good reference anyways.
