This is a question I Quit!

Scaryduck writes, "I celebrated my last day on my paper round by giving everybody next door's paper, and the house at the end 16 copies of the Maidenhead Advertiser. And I kept the delivery bag. That certainly showed 'em."

What have you flounced out of? Did it have the impact you intended? What made you quit in the first place?

Not technically quit
I haven't technically quit my jobin a coffee shop, as I just went away to go to uni, and am going back again to work this summer.

But never the less, that didn't stop me messing about on my last day.

Y'see, we used to get as many free hot drinks as we wanted during the day while we were working. I think it was supposed to make us hate working there slightly less.

It didn't really.

Anyway, I don't really do the whole hot drink thing. I stuck to the Irn-Bru; it wasn't free, but boy was it good.

Mmmmm.

Anyway, on my last day, I decided that since I wasn't making use of the free hot drinks, and hadn't done for the past two years, someone ought to.

So someone did.

In fact, pretty much anyone I knew that came in that day did.

Serves them right for minimum wage and crap conditions, crap hours, a crap place, and so on.

wow
you only did that on your last day?

I did that every day. Every single one.

Nope
Only on the last day.

I felt I did quite well in being restrained for the previous 2 years, but I just couldn't be bothered anymore.

So what's the obvious thing to do?

You guessed it, go back and work there this summer.

I was convinced we worked in the same place
up until the irn bru part
my job might be marginally more worthwhile if there was irn bru.

*sob*
