'The restaurant had to comp like a 100 meals': 20+ Employees with the most satisfying job-quitting stories ever

Finding the perfect timing can be so sweet. Quitting your job at the perfect time is just delicious, as a bunch of proud quitters below can tell you all about. 

When you're searching for a job, most employees want somewhere that pays well, has great benefits, and isn't an awful place to work at. It's even better if you can find somewhere that you feel passionate about the work, like nurses who can help patients with enough time during each visit, or teachers who are able to teach their favorite subjects to a small class size. We all dream of jobs that match all these requirements, but almost every gig has some kind of drawback. Maybe it's a boss who checks in with employees day and night, demanding perfection but never offering any praise. Or maybe your coworkers drive you up the wall with their poor office etiquette or by avoiding reading the emails you send them.

There are a lot of moments that can make one want to up and quit their job, but we don't often act on it. However, the people down below did exactly that, and they managed to quit at the most satisfying times possible. Keep scrolling to read some of the funniest and most interesting quitting stories from the workers who quit in a blaze of glory. 

Up next, read about the 18-year-old who left her stepfather, mom, and two siblings at the airport, writing that "I boarded anyway and left them all behind."
