Is a two-week notice really necessary?

I've (18M) been wanting to quit my two jobs for a while now. One's a concession gig that I've had for 5 months, but over the summer they've scheduled me really infrequently and they don't pay me enough, especially since I'm going into community college later this month. I got a second job as a pizza delivery driver last month which I enjoy quite a lot, but recently it's looking like the store might have an infestation and I don't want to take those critters home by accident. Tie all of this in with way better work opportunities on campus, and I've got a lot of motivation to quit. What I wanted to ask you guys is this: will it really affect me that bad to quit either one or both of these jobs without a two-week notice? The schedules for these jobs often conflict and they're both weekend jobs,…

What I wanted to ask you guys is this: will it really affect me that bad to quit either one or both of these jobs without a two-week notice? The schedules for these jobs often conflict and they're both weekend jobs, sorta making it hell to plan anything with friends or family. Part of me wants to quit with less than two weeks of notice to spend time with my loved ones before I start college full time, but the other half doesn't want to make a screw-up and affect my chances of getting hired for a new position. Any advice? (Btw I live in an at-will employment state)
