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?

Hitting them where it hurts.....Long time lurker, first time poster, big time loser.
As I was coming to the end of a job in a particular hotel/pub after 3 long, painful years (I had found much better employment elsewhere) I thought I'd go out with a bang.
When I was cooking in the kitchen (where else would one cook?) I gave much bigger portions to the customers (insert your own joke here) that I should have, when I was working in the bar, I purposely made mistakes (logic correction: yes, I know that if I did it on purpose, then it doesn't count as a mistake!) thus, costing the company more money. Some of favourites include, spilling half a bottle of vodka and scotch, breaking glasses and generally arsing around. Then, I went back into the kitchen and spoiled a lot of their food supplies (again, more money down the drain). Then, my coupe de grace, I short changed the customers I'd always hated. They were too drunk to care (or notice).
Yep, in one weekend, I estimated I caused about £500 worth of damage. That'll teach them to stiff me out of double time when they promised it!
Length? Ask the customers. They received my bigger portions.
