13 Resignations I Have Typed As Recently as Yesterday … Wait for it
1. Fuck you. I quit. Strong message to follow.
2. I quit this bitch.
3. I had a life, but this job ate it.
4. I’d rather be skipping and blowing bubbles.
5. Fuck work.
6. Needless to say, I didn’t go to college and get two degrees for this shit.
7. I quit. That’s all.
8. Looking for a job? Have mine.
9. Am I fired yet?
10. I can only please one person a day. Today I choose me.
11. I am too cool to work for scum.
12. Lab rats have more meaningful careers than I do.
13. This is cruel and unusual employment.
I cannot hide my disdain much longer. Explain to me again why I should be happy where I am.
wow! are you SURE you don’t eat meat? happy tt! (ducks and runs for cover)
Take that job and shove it.
Can I give numbers 1, 5, 9, 13 to the person who makes my life hell at work and who I can’t blog about because she reads my blog? Leave bitch leave!
Sigh… am perfectly calm now.
You should be happy where you are because… you’re either braindead, complacent, idiotic. Since you’re none of those things I hate to say it… but you gotta get out, sister.
#10 is my moto — self employment rocks. Until you have to pay the bills and the checks are in the mail.
I’m up here and here. Because I am a TT over-achiever.
don’t stay at a job like that!!
You should be happy where you are. It’s an unreasonable situation. Any NORMAL person would be unhappy and pissed off. Now if you are the normal American, you will take some drugs, get someone to whine to and keep working there.
The question is how normal are you.
There’s lots of Clark Kent jobs in the world. Why suffer so much for so little? Resume time!
Because it is better than getting groped by drunken gamblers who don’t tip?
I need to use all of those.
What timing! I am redrafting my resignation as I sit here and read this. So badly,I want to say all this and more!
Been there, done that and quit the job. Now I’m running out of money and asking myself if the job was really that bad.
Uh, yup it was. Only now I can’t find another job. I suggest finding another one before you leave that one.
Did I just read those out loud???
Oops…
I take it that that promotion hasn’t come through yet?
I’m sorry work still sucks so badly for you. Are there any other viable options out there?
Whoever said you should be happy where you are is stupid. You should go where you will be happy.
Numbers 1, 6, and 10 are my favorites.
I’m hoping you feel better soon!
love ya!
Chili
Number four is going to be my new mantra.
Been. There. Not long enough ago to say anything so publicly, but I completely get it. Do leave, but always have a new one before you quit the current one because things are rugged out there for some folks right now. Still, I’d be scheming a way out of the hell. Life is too short. Fuck them.
Da-yum! I’m so sorry. I feel your pain. I may need to copy/paste these for my own use soon…
I LOVE some of these, especially the last one.
I’m telling you… come HERE and teach MY kids. It’s an entirely different world.
Oh, and I got word last week that our principal’s done in March. We’ll have an opening in administration!
Dude. Come on over and have smores with me.
@Jayedee: Be afraid. Be very afraid. Dude, read my “about me.” I’m a VAY gun not a VEE gun.
@Neen: I’m working on it. Thanks!
@bec: Obviously, no one at work knows about my blog. LOL
@ Melissa: Ditto what I told Neen.
@ Pop Tart: Well, I tried using #10 today, and it backfired. More about that on another post.
@geek-betty: Ditto what I told Neen and Melissa.
@Claudia: I am beginning to wonder if I am normal. I am going to write more later about why I am stuck where I am for now.
@ CJ: Some days that wasn’t so bad. All kidding aside, I am at a career low point this week.
@ stacy: Go for it except I tried one today and it backfired. Now I want to quit even more.
@ saintseester: Great minds think alike.
@ Lisa: I can’t quit. They own me.
@ full body transplanet: Do I offend? LOL
@ Robin: ROFLMAO — no promo … still.
@ tense teacher: It gets better. I was told I needed to “suck it up” today when I tried to explain why I was so unhappy.
@ Chili: I hope I do too. This close to a mental breakdown am I.
@ Scarlet Hip: I wrote #4 on a Post-It note and carried it in my pocket all day today.
@ Maggie: Seriously scheming and plotting as I type.
@ Sandy C: Thanks for the love.
@ Susan: Thanks. A move would be refreshing. If life was that easy, I wouldn’t have anything to piss and moan about on my blog.
@ Sarcastic Mom: Oh, I have hit the chocolate a few times today, but Smores rule.
How many millions of people wish they could write #1 to their bosses.
I feel your pain. I work for an idiot. Who thinks she is screwing with me but is in fact too crude and stupid to pull it off well.
Personally I like #1. Direct. Forceful. Clearly worded
My dream is to win the lottery and continue to go to work and say everything I am thinking out loud!
#12 pretty much sums up how I feel about my job. I’m convinced I’ve died and gone to the 9th circle of Hell. Ooops. I’m wrong…I’m in City Hall.
Pee on the bosses desk. That tends to get the message across.
You’re right. You ARE too good for this shit.
Move to Riverview and I’ll make Mitchell hook you up with some teaching gig. Maybe you won’t tell the abused kid to go to vo-tech and hope he can pay his bills.
Fuckers.
