quit

This person asked if they were right to walk out after their boss tried some weird manipulative BS by "not accepting" their two wees notice. It seems like they were well within their right, and are better off to have that garbage behind them. For another interesting quitting story, here's an employee who walked out and got a promotion out of it.

This boss wanted a manager that he didn't have to pay extra. Instead of going along with the BS, this employee decided enough was enough and let the boss get exactly the amount of work he was paying for. Incompetent managers have a way of biting themselves in the ass, like this incompetent manager who forbid overtime. Here are more people's "screw this, I'm out" stories.

In one fell swoop of anger, this boss managed to lose his entire digital marketing department, and had no way to dig himself out. Sometimes bosses forget that their employees are human beings, who actually have the capacity to ruin their day, like this boss who tried to play an employee, or this boss who tried to play Alpha.

Some acts of defiance are more trivial than others. This employee's power tripping manager decided to revoke his vacation, so he quit and before he left decided to give him a real confusing send off. Sometimes small revenge is all you need, like this guy who battled his work tie policy by buying the ugliest ties possible.

After demanding everyone do painstaking logs, not reading them himself, and chastising his staff during a meeting, this manager was made to look like the jackass he really was. Frustrated employees sometimes give incompetent managers a taste of their own medicine, like this guy who was instructed to guard a spill, so he did it for hours.

A bad boss can make or break a whole company. Sometimes they can even make everyone quit at once. Here's a good reminder that even if you feel stuck at a crappy job, you can evaluate your skills and may realize that you totally don't have to put up with the BS that a bad boss sticks you with daily.

There are a lot of reasons to leave a job. Maybe you get a better offer at a different place for more money. Hell, maybe the job just sucks. These people just happened to leave because they were violent, dumb, selfish, creepy and just plain stupid. For more like this, here are some dumbstruck employees sharing stories of their dumbest coworkers.

It being International Workers' Day, Talia Lavin asked people share stories of their most horrible, unfair, incompetent and downright nasty bosses. If you've ever been yelled at for having to take off work for an emergency, or been fired for actually doing your job correctly, these might resonate with you.

Sometimes bosses are truly unreasonable. Sometimes a business is a total scam that takes advantage of its employees. Here's hoping that these people were able to find better jobs.
