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

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my boss at my new job yelled at me for being 15 minutes early to work. Last week he yelled at me for being late for my shift when I arrived 5 minutes early. He's considering this my final warning before I'm fired. FML
Today, I got fired for being late. Apparently you're supposed to be on time after your boss specifically tells you that the office will open an hour late. FML
Today, my boss called me and asked why I haven't been showing up to work. I didn't show up because he fired me last week over the phone. Then he fired me again for not showing up to work. FML
Today, I was yelled at and almost fired for showing up "late" to work. I was the first one here. 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, I won employee of the month. I was then fired for being late. FML
Today, my boss yelled at me for leaving on time. After months of management hounding us about our overtime, I get in trouble for doing what I was supposed to do. FML
Today, I was fired for job abandonment. Yesterday, my boss told me to go home early because we were so slow. After I reminded him, he laughed and said, "Oh yeah... You're still fired." FML
Today, my boss made sure to do one last thing before he retired. Fire me. FML
Today, my boss found out I had applied for a much better paying job. He told me I'd do a better job and make more money there. Then he fired me. FML

You don’t need permission to quit, that’s not how jobs work

I heard about a time where there were certain workers who couldn't quit. They were called slaves. In many places, it's much more beneficial to be fired than to quit voluntarily.

Everyone’s right. You don’t need permission to quit. Employers always expect you to be loyal to them. As if they’re really doing you a favor letting you work for them. They’d expect you to give them a 2 week notice before quitting. But they can fire you on the spot. I say **** most employers. Why is it a lot of people learn all the lessons of working for other people AFTER they retire or can no longer work? All we can do is to pass the lessons learned to the younger workers.

So he won't let you quit, but he gave you a tip on how to get fired. Sounds like he wants you to collect unemployment? Be a week or two late to your next shift.

Do you not realize you don't need his permission to quit?
