15+ Workers who quit on the spot and shared what happened next: 'The best part was the HR lady calling me every day for 2 weeks'

Never be afraid to walk away and find a better job! I know in this job market, that seems intimidating, but it's worth it to leave as soon as you possibly can if you're unhappy at your current company. 

Every time you move between jobs, you have the chance to double your income. Staying at the same place for years isn't always rewarding: you might get a holiday bonus or maybe you'll get a raise if you're doing splendidly. But even so, you probably won't increase your income by more than 10% or 15% per year. Meanwhile, if you switch gigs, you could double your income instantly! Your dreams of having a big 401 (k) and a long vacation somewhere warm just became even more of a possibility. 

Now, while we all dream of telling our bosses exactly how we feel about them and clearing out our desks, most of us don't just do that on a whim. There are bills to pay and mouths to feed! But there are times when you just can't sit by for another moment and continue your employment somewhere, and leaving during those moments is so, so sweet. 

Up next, read about what happened when this person's sister decided to bring her baby to an adults-only wedding, leaving her sibling to bring a puppy to her next big event: "I smiled. I forgave. And I plotted."
