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?

Last Boss
We’ve all been here before I am sure. You’ve got a job to do and you try as hard as you can to do your best but it is a constant battle. I’ve been in the situation too, putting in the hours at the expense of other important aspects of life like family and friends. Fortunately for me I was based on a tropical island at the time so the surroundings were nice, but it was still a hard slog.
Over a period of a few months I went through three bosses, all difficult bastards. It really annoyed me because I certainly put in the effort, but I just wasn’t getting to where I wanted to be. I’d work my way up a level thinking that was great, only to be faced with more drama and bigger challenges. By the time I was greeted by my third boss I was really starting to get pissed off and wondering why I was wasting my time, especially as he was a real hard bastard and a complete prick. You know how it is - I’d be doing the right thing, and he’d throw in a random hand grenade and wreck my day. But I’d take it on the chin and have another go because I was dedicated and tenacious. But then the prick would secretly snipe at me while my back was turned. If I tried to challenge him head-on, I'd just get a rocket up the arse.
I started getting really bitter and frustrated, and it took me ages to work out the best approach when faced with this sort of problem. But I sorted him in the end though. Not much stands up to a semi-auto shotgun to the face. Fuck you Kreiger, and fuck you Far Cry.

I'm a dope
Cannot believe I hadn't worked anything out by the last sentance so for that you get a wee click.
