This worker quit their job in a way that most of us can only dream of! 

Have you ever sat at your job and daydreamed about quitting? Maybe you have an office job, and you'd love to wipe that smirk off your boss's face by sending a "reply all" email to the whole office. Or maybe you work in retail, and you'd love to tip a whole table of merchandise to the floor before walking out forever. But of course, most of us don't act on these impulses, as fun and satisfying as they might be. Quitting your job in a crazy way can make it harder for you to line up your next gig. But this person seems pretty justified in the way they answered a notice that their bosses put up… check it out below and see what you think. 

Up next, read about the 22-year-old who sparked a family feud after baking a really passive-aggressive cement gray gender reveal cake: "Just make it neutral."

    A "B" grade for this note! This person was clearly fed up with the sassy way their managers were talking to the employees. The fact that management felt comfortable putting this in writing says a lot about their character.

    [deleted] It was a good idea, but your editing doesn't quite cut it either.

    Dephenestr8 What's up from one Evan to another! I once was walking into a short term bosses office to quit when he walked out and gave me my last check but didn't say why I was fired. That was grounds for unemployment. My eyes lit up and I said "Sick, thanks!"

    xwing_n_it Based on small-business tyrants I've worked for, nothing infuriates them more than telling them you're smarter and better- educated. One of my bosses. clearly had a chip on his shoulder because I was in college and belittled me constantly. Quitting that job was one of the best days of my life.
