Take this job and shove it

[lemon_fresh]

Start a new job tomorrow. Pulled a total "D" move and gave no notice. My only regret is that I wished I actually hated the people who worked there so I could of gone out all "Fuck You" and "You Suck" to people. Oh well, I guess you can't have everything.

I know, I know, two weeks, blah, blah blah...Share some of your job quitting stories if you please.

Brilliant, I'm sure they'll be happy to provide you with a glowing letter of reference down the road.

Congrats, I hope you're out of the paper business altogether now?

Most jobs don't even provide references anymore because HR departments are against them. Some bullshit over 'liability'.

I think all they can do now is confirm whether or not you worked there.

 

[JAXvillain]

Yep, no one uses that shit anymore.

Anyway, where are you working lemon? Why the fuck did I find out about this on the internet?

I don't have any real exciting ones, most got a 2 week notice, my last job I just went on maternity leave, then about 2 days before my 6 weeks was up my boss called and said "I need a def if you are coming back or not" and I told her no. I was never planning on going back, but didn't tell anyone that cause I used my benefits up until the end.

Totally out of the newspaper business. Govt employment here I come.

 

[Dory Berkowitz-Bukowski]

I walked out of one job because I couldn't be bothered with it anymore so I left and drunk white russians for 4 days. My next job I left because it was taking up too much time while I was studying. Ill update you on how spectacularly I leave the job Im at right now, which will happen soon.

Nice. I don't have any fun stories that I can think of now.

I think the only way I would leave here is if I got an IT job for the braves. MLB pays for your retirement with no employee contribution and how badass would it be to have a world series ring if they won again? every permanent employee on staff gets one when your team wins

NFL jobs are similar in regards to the ring. Maybe the Falcons are hiring.

he'd probably like there to be an actual chance of ever winning a ring.
