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?

« Go Back
I was assistant manager...
In a crappy little shop in a dead retail villiage.
I was already on my notice as I was due to move to a better job and the company seemed to be sinking.
But when (for a third day runnung) I was phoned and told to get in early as I would be on my own all day, and my replacement would be in for an interview, so be nice to him....
I decided to fuck things up a bit.
I drove to a different store, walked up to the manager, handed her a pile of shirts and the keys to my store, and said;
"Someone else can open up whiteley today, I'm never going back there again"
And walked out.
I'm not sure what made it more worthwhile... The look on the staff's faces, or the fact that they managed to make my replacement wait around for 4 hours for someone from london to drive down to interview him.
I think I won that one.

Fair Play
Whiteley should be done under trade descriptions when they call it a retail village
