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

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 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
Today, I tried to quit my job. My boss pulled me into his office and gave me a write-up for quitting, told me that he knows where I live, and that I'd better be at work tomorrow or he's going to come and drag me into work. FML
Today, after working at my job for months, I quit. Why? My boss tried to convince me that we are in a secret relationship, after he told me he loved me. FML
Today, I came in to work to hand in my resignation. The minute I walked in, my manager took me aside and said he wanted to talk to me in private. He then cancelled my position and fired me. FML
Today, I finally worked up the nerve to quit my job after being tortured by my boss for months. My boss responded by throwing a hardcover textbook at me and hitting me in the face. FML
Today, I quit my job, mainly because I didn't work enough hours and thus, earn enough money. In the past, they said there isn't any other paid work they could provide. They've now added different tasks, more money, and more hours to the position. I'm helping to find a replacement for a job I would otherwise apply to. FML
Today, I finally built up the courage to quit my job. I waited an hour to speak to the boss; I finally sat down with her, and she told me I had to be let go because I'm not "reliable enough." The only time I missed work was when I had the stomach flu. I was fired before I could even quit. FML
Today, my boss sent me a link on how to write a good resignation letter. FML
Today, I was told by my boss if I was late one more time he fired me. I replied, "Can I quit then if that's the case." He then said no, and gave me more shifts. FML
Today, after working for over a decade at the same place, I was formally written up with two days of leave without pay for refusing to work extra overtime. I've been working over 80 hours a week for four months now and even cancelled some very important plans so I could work every day. FML

Just don't do them if you are going to quit than why bother.

If you're going to quit, write the letter and quit. If you do the work it'll be for no reason.

If you've been given more projects why are you complaining? Do them and prove you can do better work, this in turn will get you better work. Essentially it made your boss pull the finger out and treat you as you wanted in the first place.

This is the reason my dad is retiring next month. At his job, his boss has fired 4 other people and gave those jobs to my dad with only .25 cents extra pay. He overheard the boss talking about firing another employee to save even more money, and prob going to assign that job to my dad too. He finally had enough. The people fired were making about $90-120k each.

Am I the only one thinking that a resignation letter should be written at home? I've always thought that you write it up at home and hand it to them when you give them the verbal resignation.

if you were quitting, why did you feel you had to do the paperwork?

don't do the projects and write your resignation letter, you are a strong independent black woman!

If you are going to quit, quit. Stop allowing others to take advantage of you. Your time should be worth more to you than that.
