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?

I shut the whole company
I was working for a woman who ran a "virtual office". I got the job on the basis that I did a bit of this and that, and bigged up her business and she'd pay me what I wanted. She was hardly there, so the work wasnt really that hard...
Then I found out that the bitch wasnt paying my tax or national insurance, and the deal was suddenly not so good.
So I threw a wobbly, and told everyone what she'd done... made a few phone calls and found out that none of her staff were getting their tax and NI paid.
So, we all called round the customers and told them what she'd done, and why we were walking out.
She was forced to close the whole company down, and went out of business about 6 months later, after she'd spent a packet in time and temps fees. I heard on the grapevine she still owes people money.
I thought about feeling bad for a little while, but she still owes me a grand.
