4 of The WORST Resignation Stories In History

------------------------
------------------------

It’s a sad fact, but some bosses (for some stupid reason) have a habit of turning on employees who decide to leave their business.

It makes no sense and there is no good reason for doing it. Yet there are those out there who just enjoy making people's lives hell as soon as they hand in their resignation.

In this video, we break down 4 of what I think are the worst, most ridiculous resignation stories you will ever hear.

It is not common I find myself amongst the first comments in a video. Just wanted to say this video reminded me of when I got a call for a job I didn't want, and the recruiter was really cocky and started bragging about what a privilege would be for me to work in their company... Then asked me what were my reasons to apply for a job there and my reply was: “I didn't apply, it was you guys who approached me. Bye”.

[demondogmom]

I never tell my current job where I'm going. It's none of their business. I'll go so far as to tell different people different things.

I had a friend who had a toxic manager. When she moved on, her underlings held a "Yay, she's gone!" party, but held it after her departure and kept it a secret from her.

I put in my notice at my old employer. My boss’s boss called me to tell me that, since I didn’t have permission to interview for a new job, he was going to tell my manager to reject my resignation and demanded I send him a copy of my offer letter along with the contact information for the recruiter at my new job. I reminded him of the U.S. labor laws (he was based in another country) and that the two weeks was a courtesy not a requirement and I would just amend my resignation to make it effective immediately. He said he would make an exception and “allow” me to quit but was going to mark me as a do not rehire. I told him I wasn’t worried, I would sell both kidneys before working there again.

My daughter just got out of one of these jobs. She left the day after her paycheck cleared. She knew if she gave notice he would make the remaining time completely miserable. She saw him do it to someone else.

On the second one, I wonder what the employees who accepted the invitation were thinking. We're they similarly malicious, or did they think they were attending a "best of luck" going-away party? Either way, it doesn't look good for the company.

I once put in my 2 weeks notice. Up until that point, i had no idea how bad my boss really was. Yes. I'd been miserable and looking but i thought she actually did care. 1 week in to serving my notice and she hasn't found a replacement for me. I got a call that weekend from my mom that my grandma had fallen down the stairs and was in the hospital. She appeared to have a brain injury. I called my boss in tears and explained the situation. I apologised and said i needed to go be with my family and i would try to return for as much of my remaining time as i could. Her reply was, "well if you're not going to be here to train your replacement, i don't really need you to return at all." No concern for me and my family at all. Just for what i could provide and the minute i wasn't useful anymore, nothing. Leaving was the best thing i ever did.

The funniest resignation I've ever seen was when I worked for a large UK mobile phone company and one of my colleagues was not having a good day.

He was slowly losing his mind with a massive Karen and whatever she said to him made him snap and he (in the most polite way I've ever heard from him) said, " I have a solution for the you. Can you put the sim card in a glass of water for me, place it in the freezer for 24hrs, and do you have hand cream available and can you cover your handset in it?".

She must have asked why hand cream and if it would fix the handset as his response was "No miss, it won't fix the handset but it will make it easier to shove it up you f'n arse!"
He then got up gently, removed his headset, went up to the ops manager said "fk you and this job, " then walked out.

I fell off my seat. I was laughing so hard, but they wouldn't let us hear the call recording so we don't know what she actually said to him.

The second one, she was absolutely right she was in an AB relationship. I can’t imagine what happens in his personal life. What a prick. A tiny one.

[johnbarnes]

The second one sounds like the boss is in for a surprise if you hire an attorney.

[redshift]

Who TF would go to such a leaving party organised by the bullying boss in story 2? I would start looking for a new job ASAP on receiving such a message.

[C-SD]

😂 omg that last one. I put in my resignation, that's a statement not a question. If you try to force me to keep working you're not getting that 2 weeks, I'm out immediately.

[EikePilt]

Jesus, I felt so bad for that girl. I really wanted to give her a hug. I've had a few arguments with my boss, but it's never gotten this personal. We might have different opinions, but we would never stoop so low as to insult each other.😢

I can’t believe the video came out the exact day I am turning in my resignation letter

[chernobyl]

Just remember - story #1 doesn't always end with "but the inappropriateness was recognized". It often ends with "and it cost them the job".

[debtompkins]

I worked for a couple of years for a NYC lawyer (yes everything bad you think) and to get out of paying what he owed me, he invented a billing for things that had occurred in those years to read that I owed him for the 'privilege' of doing them. He ran it up over $5000, he didn't get any money from me, but I didn't get paid either.

[gethriel]

To be fair, it's completely typical to leave specifically because of the boss(es). The largest part of them are positively AWFUL.

[kisstune]

#2 I'd screenshot and archive it and file a hostile work place lawsuit against the company.

[SuprousOxide]

Ok. Don't accept my notice. Don't have me prepare to handover my duties or knowledge, but come the day i notified, I'm walking out the door and not coming back.

[paulettemoore]

And that’s why you don’t tell your former manager where you are going.
