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 so much quit......as never started.
Summer. Need a job. Unigate advertises. Can you put a cherry on a trifle, 8 hours a day?
Yup, I can do that.
Go to interview. (interview? wtf?) and get the job, but they want me to start immediatly and I have a holiday all booked up. Can I take two weeks holiday straight away and then start?
Ah, go on then. We're short of cherry-on-trifle-putter-onners and someone of your skills in that department we're willing to wait on.
Cool. Go on holiday. Get poorly with dodgy food.
Come home, supposed to start work but really a bit sick with diarrhea and vomiting, not something you really want in a trifle factory. Ring up and say I'm sick, and sign off for a week.
After a week, feel better but worse about working in a trifle factory. Ring up and hand in my notice. No-one seems to notice that I've never actually ever set foot on the trifle-making line.
So, I never actually ever went to work, but I did get paid two weeks holiday pay and a week sick...
