Funny ways you quit your job or how you got fired

mboRa ndomHer0723 · 26th February 2009, 15:54

Below is a story on how I quit my job after not even working a full week. I was 16 at the time and felt that partying was a better thing to do.

I got a job working in the liquor department of a grocery store stocking alcohol and refilling the cooler which was very easy to do. As I was still in school I was only going to be working 3-4 days a week. My boss told me it would be a Tues/Thurs/Sunday schedule which was fine by me. I get home from school on a Friday invite a few friends over including a chick I wanted to bang to do some pre drinking before a friends party. Right when we are about to kick off I get a call from my boss asking if I can work. I told him I could and that I would be in as soon as possible.

This put me in a pretty bad mood as I now had to tell my friends and the chick I was planning on getting with later that they had to go home and that I would not be able to go to the party that night. So I go in to work all pissed off and my boss tells me to put on a smile because I was going to be working outside moving bags of dirt and plants. This really pissed me off because it was still hot as hell out and I was planning on sitting in the air conditioning for the rest of the night. I go outside with my boss and he tells me that I have to move this huge pile of bags of dirt from the back of the store to the front. I told him it would be no problem and he went back inside.

I got to work and threw 3 bags into the cart and proceeded to the front of the store when I ran into a friend who I was supposed to be going out with later. He informed me that there was going to be chicks jello wrestling and a few kegs at the party and that I could not miss this party. At that moment I thought fuck this job I am gonna go party instead, so I took off my stupid store shirt and wrote with a marker, "Fuck You I quit". I then put my shirt on the cart and started to leave when my boss walked out the door. I panicked and just ran to my car and got the hell out of there. I still hate going into that store to this day.

*at the party the chick I planned on getting with got wasted and was puking the whole night so I stayed away from her. She also got arrested when the cops broke up the party for underage driking

Crap story i'm afraid

Church o Choccy · 26th February 2009, 16:02

I've had, and quit, quite a few jobs in my time. But the funniest quitting story has to come from a mate of mine who was working in the same shitty pub as me at the time. The landlady was a right bitch, shouting at everyone, throwing threats around and everything. She'd only been there about 3 weeks, the pub ran fine, made a good profit and we all had a pretty good relationship with the locals until she turned up. She did, though, I must admit, have a tremendously nice arse and a cracking pairn that bobbed up and down just right when she walked with purpose around the pub as she was prone to do.

Anyway, after she tells us that we can't stick around for a few beers after we lock up anymore my mate gets the right arse on and decides to quit. Next day, he walks into her office, is in there about twenty minutes and then walks out with a giant grin - straight out the door. Turns out he'd gone in to quit and she'd made a few flirty comments so he decides "Fuck it, I'll see how far I can push it". He ended up fucking her in her office, shooting on her tits and then announcing "I quit" before walking out.

She ended up leaving a month or two later as well!

You could have just said no when your boss rang.

True, but I was surprised my boss was calling me so I sort of just reacted with out thinking everything through. Either way I had a better paying job at the end of the week so that was pretty sweet.

jgraham · 26th February 2009, 16:14

I was too worried about quitting my first job at the ae of 18 that I came up with what I thought was a foolproof plan. I told the boss i'd been offered a job abroad and it was basically too good a chance to miss out on. This of course was utter rubbish - I just wanted to quit but couldn't face telling him it was because I didn't like the job.

The boss totally agreed that it was an offer too good to miss out on and even let me leave with only a weeks notice!

Two weeks later I was on a night out, and bumped into my ex boss.

I could have maybe thought that one through a bit better.

I'm guessing by his use of the words "jello" and "keg" that he's probably a yank where, as far as I can tell, it's ok to drive a 4x4 while firing shotgun rounds out the sunroof at the age of twelve so long as you don't drink.

Yes, I was. You only had to be 16 here in the States and had to have a certain amount of time driving with instructors and parents. I think some states are now 18 unless you have a parents permission or something like that.

I once worked for a company for 30 minutes. I just knew it was the wrong job for me almost immediately. I asked where the toilet was, walked out of the office and never went back.
I used to joke to my friends that one day I would go back and walk out of the toilet wafting an imaginary smell away whilst saying "you don't want to go in there!"

I went to an interview once where a bloke did just that. It was a group interview to be followed by a series of one on one interviews. One fella just casually gets up and excuses himself to go to the bog, doesn't come back for ages. Eventually the male interviewer goes to look for him and he's nowhere to be seen so we carried on. The funniest thing was I got the job and after I'd been working there a few weeks one of the security guards started showing everyone the CCTV tape of this guy absolutely legging it down 4 flights of stairs and out a fire exit!

Back when I was a bartender in Northern New Jersey just across the Hudson river from NYC, I opened the pub at 9am...

There was a guy that would come in and get hammered every morning. He'd complain about is publishing job, ever single morning. This one particular morning he told me he was going to quit his job.

He left the pub at around 10am and returned with cuts all over his face, by 11:30am. He told me he went into his boss's office and before getting a word out of his mouth, he fell through his boss's desk.

His intent was to quit, but the result was that he got fired. The upside is that he got to collect unemployment because if you quit, here in the states, you a delayed in unemployment assistance.
