You cannot be forced to work--period and end of sentence. Any person can leave any job any time they want, even without notice: 2 weeks notice is a courtesy and tradition, but is not a legal obligation. Just like your employer can terminate you at any time, without prior notice, you can resign and stop working at any point. So simply do not show up to work past the day you have already decided is your last.
