Notice how he didn't tell them to take the job and shove it until he had at least two other jobs already lined up

Enjoy your drinks!

last year I quit when I had nothing lined up. I took too months off. . Then the money started running low, so I figured I'd better get a job.

Mess a bunch of stuff up, before you leave.

Good example of why "the man" walks people out the door upon receipt of their resignation.

It´s been so much crap and backstabbing going on the last months so I quit today. I have some vacation days left and I´m not coming back after that. I cleared out my locker and told my boss to take this job and shove it! I have at least two new jobs lined up and an interview next week (with good chances methinks )

Now I´m gonna get drunk!

Oh, doing that sounds so tempting at times...I could just walk out and take the remainder of my holiday days which would be about 3 weeks when pro-rata adjusted and those days which I have rolled over...but I would need another job and I am not keen on jumping from the frying pan into the fire...

Good drinks indeed, thanks for your kind thoughts y´all

And it was really dreadful this last months. It´s always been quite bad, but manageble. But the company obviously rewards ****ing STASI agents running around spying on their co-workers and reporting every little discrepancy to the boss. I mean we work our asses off and we get things done, so what if we leave early occasionally? We get morte done in a week than some get done in a month... And the weasel in question isn´t even a part of our tema anymore, so why the **** is he keeping an eye on us for? He´s been promoted to supervisor, but that´s abviously not enough...

Well, enough of that crap. New jobs are on the horizon and things are looking good

Do you work where I work? The similarity is frightening I am a person sick of doing all of the donkey work and then being f**ked over by management just because they can...and the thing that baffles me is, that if I left, they'd have a serious headache. Actually, make that a full-on brain tumour

It seems the worlds of a laboratory worker and a forestry worker aren´t all that different Managment screws you either way

Absolutely - I've been down that road before where I have walked out (PhD, early 2002) but didn't have a job lined up. That was a pretty damn hard time trying to find another job. This time, I am not making the same mistake...

It's the same thing here. You can find a job much easier when you have a job. Sometimes you even get calls from headhunters.

Didnt finish got an offer i couldnt refuse from the hospital close to town 1500 a week for 7 months. Need to see if i can go back and finish, or travel around the country being a nurse. I found out that i could travel to any city i want and work for 13 weeks at a time with free housing and close to 40 bucks an hour with all expenses paid.

They still haven't let you know what's happening with your contract?

$1500/week?? Sweet! But I guess we´re not talking 8 hour days here...?

I really ought to go to a UK Polymeet sometime, we could knock back a couple of pints and talk about the joy of working
