'60 people quit': 15 Employees who happily quit their jobs and never looked back

Think that you'll be at the same job forever? Think again. You can —and should — move from job to job throughout your career. If your current job isn't making you happy, paying you well, giving you benefits and a 401 (k), and allowing you to put your talents to good use, consider looking elsewhere. 

Some of these employees couldn't even be bothered to give their 2 weeks' notice: they just quit on the spot and let the chips fall where they may. One of the great feelings of schadenfreude in life is when you leave a job and then hear through the grapevine that the place is falling apart in your absence. At some places, you really do work so hard that when you're gone, management is scrambling, and the other workers are having to put in twice as much effort. 

A common theme in many of these tales are the bad bosses who ruin the workspace for their employees. It's like that saying goes: people don't quit bad companies, they quit bad bosses. No matter how much you like your work, if your boss is unbearable, you'll probably start searching for employment somewhere else. 

Up next, have a laugh at the crazy things that people actually donated to thrift stores, and somehow wound up on the sales floor, like one shopper who discovered, "My local thrift store is trying to sell old tomato sauce jars for $2."
