Today, I told my boss that I quit, and handed in my two week's notice. A couple of hours later, I found my letter of resignation had been photocopied and copies hung all around the office with "Best day ever" written on the bottom. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I told my boss I'm going to quit, after months of being abused, doing meaningless work, and working late every day. I was soon given so many new projects that I didn't even have time to write my resignation letter. FML
Today, I gave my two weeks notice at work. My boss sighed with relief and muttered, "Thank God." FML
Today, my boss sent me a link on how to write a good resignation letter. FML

Today, I put in my two-week notice. My boss responded by saying, "Okie dokie" and hanging up. Guess they were glad to be rid of me. FML
Today, my boss left a lovely invitation to her wedding on my desk. I plan on resigning during our meeting later today. FML
Today, my coworker was examining my office area because I plan on submitting my resignation on Monday and she's in charge of office space. Another coworker was eavesdropping and emailed my boss to tell him I'm resigning and she would like to use my office space for other reasons. He didn't know I was leaving yet. FML
Today, I handed in my 2 weeks notice, since I have to leave for college soon. My boss told me it was fine, then cut all my remaining shifts. FML
Today, I quit my job as a barista for one of our competitors with a couple of bucks more an hour. Two hours after I'd handed in my resignation, my boss approached me just to let me know that if I hadn't resigned, I would've been offered my own café. FML
Today, I saw my boss, so I mentioned to him, "Oh, I quit." He then interrupted, saying, "Great, I was going to fire you this week anyway." I wanted to tell him I quit smoking. FML

That's pretty immature of your boss. If they really didn't like you, they easily could have fired you. Your boss sounds like a sore loser.

Every time I read a story like this, I sympathise with OP at first (what your boss did was really mean and immature), but then think that if someone is so happy to see you go, you must have done something wrong,too. But since OP quit, he/she knew that it wasn't working out, so hopefully things will now get better for everyone...

Well, look at it this way: Not only will you not have to put up with this bullshit much longer, but you're leaving your job on good terms. :)

Good terms? Every one there hates her, maybe it was good for her to leave but she left on good terms with no one.

It was a joke. The boss is clearly happy to see OP go, so in a way OP is leaving on good terms, since the boss is not angry but delighted with OP's departure.

Time to make the next two weeks completely miserable for your boss.

On your last day you should take a picture of him and write 'Biggest Asshole Ever' underneath it.

Post his picture up with "Biggest asshole ever" around the office.

It's not like you to post without reading previous comments first. Hmm.

You must have been a real joy to work with, but either way, that was HIGHLY unprofessional and immature of your boss.

You should report this person to HR. that's unprofessional. Try and get the bastard into as much trouble as possible before leaving. As long as you have found another job and don't need them as a reference.

Something tells me he can already forget about them giving a good reference.

59 - If OP really was such a problem that the boss felt justified in what he did and OP applied with competitors it would be an extremely intelligent move to give them a glowing recommendation. Pawn the problem off on the enemy!
