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?

VirtueI actually *don't* do drugs - alcohol is too pleasant and freely available - but I once went for a call centre job taking complaints about faulty parking meters. They advised me that as part of the *interview process* I would need to submit to a urine test. "Before you even get the job?" I asked. Yes, they said.
They didn't offer me the second interview. I often wonder what I would have said to them. Would I have been a have-a-go hero like the poster above ("sorry, I'm snorting coke out of the bottom of an Afghan boy right now") or would I have made up some bullshit excuse about accepting another job? Nowadays I'd pull out the Afghan boy line, but back then I didn't have as much experience.
