20 Audacious Incidents That Made People Just Walk Out on Jobs
Listen, we all know work sucks. If it didn’t, as a great man once said, they wouldn’t call it “work” — they’d call it “super wonderful crazy fun time.” Some jobs suck more than others, and some of them suck intolerably, and in that case, there’s a certain procedure you follow. You update your resume, give your notice and walk away with a decent reference.
That is, unless your job has driven you to the brink and given you no choice but to burn the bridge and whiz on the ashes. For Redditor TweedStoner, it was because “I was tired of doing a three-person job,” they told r/AskReddit. “My boss following me around, calling me at home during meetings when I was sick, talking to me outside the bathroom door was making me crazy.” Finally, “I came back from vacation one day to find piles and piles of work that other people could have done. I quit, packed my shit, and left.”
They then asked, “People who have straight up rage quit a job, what was the final straw?” and their fellow Redditors certainly didn’t quit on them.
