It even gets trickier if after you have done so, your boss is not going to accept the resignation just like this employee. To make matters even worse, the boss threatened this employee for attempting to quit, saying that it's going to ruin his future if he leaves now. Finding himself in this tough spot, the employed turned to the internet as source of advice and support. Read the whole story below.
