AWOL is the Absence Without Official Leave. It is not common in offices and usually occurs in the military when a trainee would desert his post and leave the group permanently. But it also happens in the office. As per my experience there were 2 employees who went AWOL in different companies.
The reasons I know for doing AWOL is the heated disagreement with the boss. Another is in going abroad of a disgruntled employee. But whatever the reason you have is not really a good idea to go AWOL because that would reflect on your resume. Especially if you are employed by a big corporation, just submit an irrevocable resignation as a graceful exit. Leaving without notice is not only being impolite but also rude.
