This is a question 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?

Last day at an ISP
When I were but a wee nipper, I had quit my first proper job in tech support for an ISP, and on the last day, arranged for an extended lunch down the local.

I was given 2 hours by my then-boss for a quick tipple before returning to my desk to talk to irate customers whose emails didn't work.

I left the office at 12, sat down the pub with a few of my workmates, expecting another couple to turn up...

all 25 of the staff trickled in an out, each buying me a shot or pint, so wish I had taken a photo of the table!

so, after wimping out of them all, and donating a few to fellow leavers and randoms, I stumbled my way to a colleagues car outside.

I then wound down the window and shouted abuse at schoolkids while laughing like them as they walked by.

My colleague later told me I shouted at at least 40 of them in the 3 minute drive back to work, I think a good job there!

I got back to work, and seeing my massive drunkard grin mixed with fits of girly giggles, my boss told me to sleep it off instead of talking to customers!

Length? If it were any bigger, it'd hurt.

and you quit your job because?

its a shame you left, it seems you had a really good manager and team - they can be quite hard to come across you know...
