i finally resigned from my job

I was not doing great mentally and it took me 5 2 week notices printed, 2 being turned in. And now I finally quit without even giving my two weeks. Though it seems a bit unprofessional for me to do, I genuinely just had enough of this place. I love all my coworkers, they were all nice to me but if this job is hindering me from my success, I fear it is not worth it. My boss is still hoping for my return and said I can take a mental break, but I can’t take another shift with nothing but stress. My favorite coworker also quit so I left on his last day of working since we also kinda told each other we’ll quit together. Haha life is so awesome.

Walked off a toxic job that i hated

I didn’t want to give a negative example but this story came to mind first. Let me preface by stating that I live in a “right to work state”, so both parties are not required to explain shit if they decide the employment relationship should be terminated… After yet another crummy team meeting where management blatantly bullied my coworker (my favorite coworker, might I add) in front of the entire 30 person department, I went back to my desk and started crying lolz. At that point, I stepped outside thinking I just needed a break to cool off. By the time I was done wiping my tears, I immediately went back inside and began packing up my desk. The managers were in another meeting so they didn’t notice my departure until I was already halfway home. Panicked calls came through to my phone and I ignored them as I blasted The Front Bottoms. Voicemails came through. Delete. They fucked around and found out that day. And I realized that the feeling of being stuck was an absolute illusion that kept me trapped in a panicked tunnel vision where freedom waited patiently in the periphery. I can do whatever I want, whenever I want, within reason. Hehe

Quitting

I put my two weeks notice in last Wednesday. In four business days, I will be completely, comprehensively unemployed. I’m going to be a bartender next. You might see me around. I look like if a five year old Bob Dylan got HGH injected into his brain stem to make him much bigger than the other five year olds. I’ll pour you a drink. One mooooree cup of coffee ‘fore ya goooooo. My obese boss got laid off last month. My only regret is not being able to invent a shrink ray in time. A shrink ray to shrink him down & ash out a cigarette on his fat little belly & put a burn on him. Seared pork belly. After he got laid off, the top brass at the company got wise to the fact that I hadnt sold a single bottle of alcohol in the entire year I’ve been working at this alcohol sales job. My boss was extremely incompetent & lazy, more than I could have ever dreamed of being. That’s how I got away with it. They didn’t confront me, they didn’t even write me up— they simply asked me to be more on the ball. They wanted me to start working. 🤮🤢🤢🤮. I quit within the week. I’ve had some good moments last couple of weeks. I fell asleep while sitting front row during a presentation at a regional conference. I couldn’t help it. It wasn’t even that I was tired. It wasn’t that the speaker was boring (though he was). It was his self satisfaction. The guy talking was upper middle management at an extremely prestigious household name whiskey company. But he talked & dressed like a puffed up substitute teacher. Checkered oxford shirt, skinny chinos, a watch that said “my wife & I have been in a sexless marriage for 6 years. Not that I care. I have PIED chronic death grip syndrome. I’m addicted to JOI femdom findom from Finland“ . But he was talking as if he was better than me, as if I should aspire to be like him. This, I think, is what offended me so deeply. I did hate his style too though— I’m no marianoleonczik , but even I can tell when a guy is a total fucking loser based off what he’s wearing. So I nodded off. I allowed top eyelid to kiss bottom eyelid one too many times & I awoke to him standing in front of me. “Hey, buddy— you gotta wake up. You can’t be asleep like that.” I was so stunned I didn’t know what to do but laugh. I tried to cover it up with a cough, but it wasn’t any use I don’t think. Everyone at the company saw me doze off and wake up giggling & coughing in this guys face. Like I was one of the drunks whose lives we ruin for money about to get kicked out of the bar. That’s my happiest memory of actually being at work on this job.

I went to a gun range for the first time yesterday

I’ve been meaning to for a while and now that there’s a gun nut who is obsessed with me (long story) I figured it was time. I went with my dad and it was a lot of fun and I just think it would be so coquette to have a gun in a holster that I wear attached to my leg under a pink poofy dress. I want the holster to have a pink bow on it and be sparkly.

Snitch on your boss

Just do it. You may get fired. But at least you did the right thing. (I am now realizing this seems contradictory to my last post but snitching and blabbing are two totally different vibes in this case)

Keeping your mouth shut

Don’t share that thing. It may be funny and juicy and crazy but just don’t share it. Some people lie about stuff, so it’s best to just keep your mouth shut.
