I'm about to tell my boss I'm quitting my job ...
 
... in 4 minutes exactly.

Keep your fingers crossed so that he does not eat me.

floatingslowly 01.28.2008 12:58 PM

are you smothered in a rich west country sauce?

!@#$%! 01.28.2008 12:58 PM

hooya baby...

maybe he'll double your salary.

gmku 01.28.2008 01:01 PM

Oh, this is a delicious moment. I remember when I told my boss I was leaving last year. There are few moments in life that feel so liberating, especially if your boss isn't expecting it.

nicfit 01.28.2008 01:03 PM

what? I thought you started liking your job better recently... oh, maybe you're trying the modeling carreer after that magazine cover :D :P!
jokes aside, fingers crossed.

Just actually do it and don't pansy out.

Not saying that you would, but I've been known to.

!@#$%! 01.28.2008 03:23 PM

i *think* he did, because this was a while ago, and he hasn't posted back, so he might have been eaten after all.

This thread has gone in quite an interesting direction since I logged out as I see.

Nevertheless, I'm still alive, I've told my boss what I was about to tell him (that I have a much better offer by the competition) and that he should do something about it. He told me he would make a counter-offer by Wednesday. I'll wait and see.

I got things moving though. Which is a great thing.

Ad nicfit (see, no capital letters here! I'm learning stuff, man!) - yes, I like my job, but I no way like my client (that takes up about 95 percent of my time), and, what is even worse, I don't like my boss and the ways he gets things done.

did your request for a counter offer include the company firing your client and your boss quitting his job???

Savage Clone 01.28.2008 04:43 PM

One of my wife's former co-workers once quit by bringing in a cake with "I QUIT" spelled out in the icing.

"Hey, everybody! I brought cake!"

✌➬ 01.28.2008 04:48 PM

That's what I am going to do.

I guess by fringing that client we could also bury the whole company along with its 45 employees :D

hot damn. there's no possible counter offer he could make you then... make sure he doesn't realize you're toying with his feelings. good idea to leave in good terms anyway, and best wishes with your new job.

_slavo_ 01.28.2008 04:55 PM

Yes, that sounds reasonable. Thank you.

awesome. but you're waiting for another offer? if your job sucks, no amount of money is going to make it better, you'll be happier somewhere else!

but good luck!!

pokkeherrie 01.28.2008 07:00 PM

If you don't like the new offer, don't tell him you're quitting right away... make him go on his knees first, it will be more fun.

afterthefact 01.28.2008 07:55 PM

Do what I did when I worked at CitiGroup, just go in after your boss has left for the day, type up a resignation letter and leave it on their desk. Or you can do what my mom did at H&R Block and just leave a post-it on your monitor that says "I QUIT!"

girlgun 01.28.2008 11:08 PM

I WANT TO QUIT SO BAD. I HATE MY FUCKING BOSS SO MUCH. SHE SLAMS DOORS IN MY FACE OR! SHE'LL GIVE ME THE SILENT TREATMENT.

nice. what line? copywriting? i love your prose.

girlgun 01.28.2008 11:22 PM

i sell home health (and reluctantly hospice)

i just applied for drug rep position to sell respiratory drugs ... which to say the least.... i have extensive knowledge about. i grew up with a pulmonologist, have worked in a pulmonologist's office in some form or another for 25 fucking years, including doing 10 years of medical transcription for this pulmonologist all while having sales jobs in some form or another (mostly retail up until selling home health).

please sweet baby jesus.... call me in tomorrow for an interview which i will fucking ACE because i'm great at interviews. i will quit that fucking cunt's job in a FLASH. oh and a 20K raise would be pretty awesome too.

I've never understood why bosses can't treat you like they would anyone. My father is a boss of a company, and he's stern as you have to be to get the job done, but he treats his workers with respect.

My boss isn't too bad, he's pretty good actually. Although I don't see him much, but he's willing to help you with non-work related issues if need be too.

girlgun 01.28.2008 11:24 PM

oh and prose?

here's some poetry:

rita, suck my dick.
you're fucking sick.
you behave as a kid
i can't wait until they shut that coffin lid!

oh yeah i know about your pulmones family connection. sweet.

i still love your prose. the way you string together the profanities is peerless.

yeah! my dad is like that too. he's always sooo good to his employees.. and not only that... he always paid 100% of the entire family's insurance.

my boss just acts so inappropriately. she's fucking 72 years old for fuck's sake!

HAHA.

I'm sick of going to work
taking orders from a fucking bitch
I'm in the chair
now go ahead and hit the switch

The Bronx. I've always liked that verse.

no i mean what does she do

--

besides the silent treatment i mean (maybe she's deaf)

girlgun 01.28.2008 11:36 PM

she asks me questions and when i reply...she says i'm being argumentative.
she slams doors in my face or she'll slam a drawer to her desk and storm out. .. out of the fucking blue!
some days she completely gives me the silent treatment
she is old and forgets conversations... and then i get in trouble because she forgot.
she yells at me everytime i step foot in the office about something. anything.
she wrote a job description a year into my job which was a passive aggressive jab. including things like length of skirts (my to the knee skirts are apparently too short... errmmm i'm not 70) and that sensible flat shoes need to be worn. i don't wear fucking sensible shoes.. if i can walk in them.. that's my business. i like heels. plus.. they're professional.
last but not least... she credited god with my work.

sex sells

each pump is worth $100K

quit & watch her crumble


MHUAAAAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA

!@#$%! 01.28.2008 11:38 PM

wait-- why dont you talk w/ her boss and stage a coup? sweet revenge...

girlgun 01.28.2008 11:40 PM

i accidentally wrote too long at first.

she constantly pulls my shirt up because she can see cleavage. it's not trashy cleavage either. just a lil. and i told her that. i said "cleavage is good for biz" and she said "you have to be careful" . err okay.

the guy (another boss of a sister company) who runs the hospice didn't like the side of my leg when i sat and crossed my legs. it made him "feel uncomfortable".

i asked my dad if my clothes were inappropriate.. and he said... "that man is obviously a fag".
