This is pretty awesome, dude brings a marching band to work to play him out of the building. You can tell his manager is a douche right away.

Do you play 30k? It'd be a lot cooler if you did.

Everyone knows the best way to quit is to act happy, pleasant, and like everyones best friend. Then you walk into work with pipe bombs on your chest a Guy Fawkes mask and screaming "Die Alien Scum!"

Then you you laugh before the cops haul you off to prison for your horribly inappropriate prank

That was pretty damn epic. I had a relative that works in a big ass hotel and he has said they are a pretty gakky work environment.

Don't blame the cops for the terrorists jumping the shark.

Did anyone see the other link to another epic quit?

Airline flight attendant gets pissed at a passenger who cursed him out, he goes to the intercom, curses out the guy, grabs a beer, activates the emergency chute, and slides down it.

In that case however, the gentleman who did that had to face some legal as well as monetary challenges for what he did, given the fact that the chute and everything constitutes a considerable amount of money to replace (like an air bag on a car) and personal danger he placed everyone in when it deploys (though not sure what it was exactly).

I think my favorite past way to leave a company was to just stop showing up for a few weeks, get paid the whole time, and then have them call me and ask if I was coming back.

I considered answering "yes, of course"... but couldn't bring myself to do it.

I wish I could do something like this...but you need i.d. passes to unlock the doors in my office :/

And if you're drinkin' well, you know that you're my friend and I say "I think I'll have myself a beer"

My best quit was when I was working at a Dry-Cleaner's and my fething bitch of a boss (who was a total nutjob with all sorts of anxiety issues that meant she couldn't serve on the counter) started ripping into me because I had dared to suggest that perhaps it wasn't fair that I should be running the whole shop effectively by myself and still only earning minimum wage. This, incidentally, with a full shop of customers waiting. Anyhow, she was giving me a dressing down, and when she said 'a fething monkey could do your job!, I snapped and said 'Really? Well, in that case you shouldn't have much difficulty, should you? Ta-ra!

Then did this:



...and walked out.

I threw a full cooked breakfast at my head chef....amusingly enough I didn't get the sack, but I did quit that day. Man was a douche, despised by every single member of staff. After the stunned silence and the great view of The Douche, standing there literally with egg on his face, I got a round of applause from the dish rats and the serving staff.

Good times!
