I was talking to some friends recently about our best work quitting stories. I know there have to be some good ones on here.
My best personal experience was when I quit my first job out of college, my boss told me I was making the biggest mistake of my life, ruining my career, and would have no chance to redeem myself. Here I am 6 years later; still gainfully employed and breathing.
A friend of mine had a much better one. He was well thought of at his company, viewed as a rising star and future leader of the organization. When he found a better opportunity, he asked his boss to step into the conference room with him and broke the news that he was leaving. His bosses initial reaction was "F*** you." Let's just say that break-up was less than amicable.
Fellow CFers, what's your best quitting story?
