How would you QUIT YOUR JOB!?!?! "Talk to the nut, cause the butt don't wanna hear it!...Seacrest, OUT!" Then I'd push my desk over and run like hell!
Come on everyone, I think what Gummi was looking for was something fun, not all this serious BS. Of course you do the 2 week crap in real life but I think he was talking about funny ways you wish, or have, left a job
I would take a vacation to an exotic country and fake my own kidnapping. This way I can continue to draw company checks for the next 2-3 months without working before I can finally "escape" from my captors and inform the company I won't be working there any more. I'm all about pumping the company for more cash if at all possible. War sketchy expense reports.
I got it! write a computer virus that will embezzel hundreds of thousands of bucks from your company, then BURN the place down! Ya know, he hasn't responded to this thread yet...I'm thinking he took one of the suggestions...hopefully it's not one of those boring "two weeks notice" ones...
I wouldn't quit. I want them to fire me, so I'd write something about how the Pacers and Timberwolves were going to meet in the 2005 Finals. Then I'd follow that up a month later with an article about how the Jim Jackson-for-David Wesley trade was horrible for the Rockets. Oh, wait ... How is it that I still have a job?
You haven't seen my bosses wife or our secretary... I'm sticking with the 2 weeks notice and a handshake.
Depends I would have to say this is the better way now, but I had an a-hole 20 years ago when I worked at Godfather's Pizza. I decided to quit during the Big Topper promo after about 20 pizza orders were waiting to be made. The idiot did not prepare and understaffed that day. I left that mutha in the cold. It felt good too and I don't have any regrets.
This is a very timely topic for me! I'm currently in a very bad situation at work -- basically, my bosses scheduled me for seven days consecutively for multiple weeks without a single day off. Didn't bother to ask me if I was able or willing to do it. I don't share my personal life with my bosses, so they have no idea what I have planned! There is a lot more to the story that I really don't want to post publically. It's an extremely maddening and sad situation...I can't stand that I really cannot trust my bosses. I'm thinking about just leaving my key at my desk and never coming back. I'm at the point where the bridges are already in heavy black smoke.
Run naked thru the office with "I Quit" written on your bum...end you rrun with stopping at the bosses office and make sure he can read it from close range.
Is that even legal, what they are asking you to do? It sounds almost like they're trying to make you upset. If there's anyone above them that they answer to, those people might ought to know what's going on. I wouldn't blame you for not putting up with those people for one more minute.
I would talk to a lawyer for the hell of it. If it's a decent paying job, there are labor laws you might want to be aware of. I'm not a proponent to frivolous lawsuits, but this is an exception. Hit them where it hurts - In their wallet
Dear [Recipient's name]: Yesterday I woke up and realized that this is the worst career experience I've ever had. Therefore, I'm officially notifying you of my resignation from [company name]. My last day will be today. This company has many problems. [insert problems here] On top of that, I can't stand to work for you any longer.
