'I stood up, said I refuse to be talked to like that, and left': 20+ Moments people quit their jobs on the spot

Enough is enough! A person can only put up with so much nonsense from their job before they throw their hands up and quit. No one knows that better than the 7,000+ people who shared their "F*** this, I quit!" stories to r/AskReddit.

There's more than one way to quit a job. Some folks "quiet quit," also known as "acting your wage." They realize they're underpaid and overworked, so they just stop doing anything extra on the job. They clock in, clock out, and don't do anything more than they have to.

But for most people, being successful at work is a point of pride. They work themselves to the bone, trying their hardest, and it's still not enough. So these folks end up getting in screaming matches with their managers or quitting over text message as they drive into the sunset. The best stories involve the bad managers getting a taste of their own medicine after the person quits. It's not such a good feeling having to work double shifts, boss, now is it?

After you check out these great stories below, read about the truck driver who accidentally gave himself a windfall of cash after he added two extra zeros onto his contract.
