Quitting a job
January 27, 2024 at 4:17 am
In August 2023, there was a new guy hired to be the boss of the rental car place I was working at. He was immediately antagonistic towards me and made me feel uncomfortable. In typical pleb fashion, my co-workers decided to ignore our boss' behavior. It never got better. I quit the job yesterday. I stuck it out as long as I could. I didn't put in a 2 weeks notice, I had simply had enough and needed to just leave.

But you're so pleasant, how could anyone even think of being hostile towards you?

Can I just quit this thread?
Yep!

Quitting comes easy to me. So does starting anew.

Other than a short teaching gig, I’ve never really had a job to quit.

The key to quitting a job is leaving no witnesses.
Even if you have to eliminate all the way up the chain of command.
The only job I ever quit was at Amrisol Solutions..

I taught history to undergrads at Queen's University for two terms. Decided I wasn't cut out for academia.
