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 me but...I've just (a few weeks ago) quit my job, but so far no signs of the place falling apart in my absence. I'm just happy not to be there to be honest. Anyway that's not funny, but this maybe is...
Years back I was a manager at Our Price (record emporium, younger readers,) and got despatched to the shop in Bromley to take over from the manager who'd just quit. All went well, but there was this issue of a severeal thousand quid order the shop had placed but no one could find. We searched and searched and eventually we found it. Several thousand copies of the Best of Jean Michel Jarre (Gallic knob-twiddler younger readers,) hidden behind a bit of false walling.
The outgoing manager had ordered all of these to screw the company for no known reason. Why JMJ? Very strange. All the Our Prices are gone now, but it gives me wry pleasure to see the old Bromley branch is now an Ann Summers!
Now I'm unemployed, but that has it's advantages.
