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?

Oh Dear
Yes, yes to all of this. Why do they not listen when you tell them you can't read music?
I had to play the clarinet (really wanted to play the sax) and could never read music, I just played everything by ear. I kept trying to tell the teacher I couldn't read the music, but even when I mysteriously couldn't play a piece and was then perfect after he'd hummed it once in frustration, he just thought I was being peverse.
It took until a grade three exam for him to realise I couldn't read music. So he gave up on me. Wonderful. I stuck to singing instead.
