Creative Ways to Quit
 
I've had it with the scheduling at work. I like working but I am not attached to my job. I am ready to walk out the door and say "so long suckas!"

I have sent a humorous internal email to one of my many bosses asking her for a week off. In the next email I might ask for time off from 2004 to 2036. That might give them the picture.

What other funny/bizarre ways can I give myself the boot?

Set screen saver passwords with passwords of random numbers would work I suppose.

Or set a bios password since they might not know how to reset it.

Take large magnets to computers.

Put holes in all the paper cups.

Good luck with gettin fired man!

What do you do for a living? I can probably come up with something good if I know what you have access to.

Well, I'm in the same position right now actually.

I'm filing an unemployment claim due to a severe reduction in hours (Literally went from 40 to 4/week) and once the money starts rolling in, I'm going to get myself canned. But I have this burning need to do it in the most humorous way possible.

I work for one of the major gamestore chains, and don't have access to much outside of the registers.

Just remember there's quite a difference between "humorous" and "illegal." Don't get yourself in to trouble.

There's always the option of exiting as gracefully as possible...

I don't suppose you sell the games with the discs already in the box, Infernal? If so you could try and swap all the discs from the boxes.

As for adamark, I have no idea what you could do...

*GLITTER*

Seriously, though. Throw glitter in your boss's face. Why? Well, you ever get glitter on you? It. Won't. Come. Off.

Don't do anything too over the top. Remember that you might use these guys as a reference later on. And if they remember you quitting in some stupid way, they'll have a bad impression about you, and thus will pass that on to whoever is calling to check the reference.

I work at Circuit City.

I came up with a good one. I could email one of my bosses and confess that I am a mole, hired by Best Buy to detail CC's training program. I just couldn't continue living the lie anymore and had to tell the truth about my covert operations and corporate espionage!

They'll be like: "you are so fired"

Melfice 12-10-2004 12:33 PM

Or... they just laugh so hard in your face and say, "Nice, joke. You just got 10 extra hours of work assigned to you."
