This is a question I Quit!

Scaryduck writes, "I celebrated my last day on my paper round by giving everybody next door's paper, and the house at the end 16 copies of the Maidenhead Advertiser. And I kept the delivery bag. That certainly showed 'em."

What have you flounced out of? Did it have the impact you intended? What made you quit in the first place?

Be a gentleman
Advance on the one below,

The next job saw me hit rock bottom. I hated it. They sent me on a training course where I got drunk all the time, fucked strangers and cried my eyes out in a hotel room seriously contemplating doing myself in (relationship split, just moved house and drug issues). When the boss sacked me (a ridiculous little man), I acted calmly and relieved and made him shake my hand. Not once but twice.

My advice:Be polite, insist they be a gentleman too and force them to do so if they look like they're trying to gain the upper hand. It will make them feel very small, even if you're in the wrong.

I love my present job, by the way. I work for myself. So there's a happy ending for you.
