'They were expecting about 125 people to relocate with them; they got 3': 20+ Workplaces whose employees quit together all at once

It's rare, but it does happen: sometimes an entire workplace quits at once. When this does happen, it's often a glorious exodus, leaving workers happy with their fresh jobs and higher salaries, while managers scramble to find new hires. It's true what they say: people will run from bad bosses as fast as they can. Having a low salary is irritating, but if you love your job, it isn't always so bad.

'I quit on the spot and went to work for his competition': 20+ Employees who immediately quit to get back at their petty bosses and entitled coworkers

Quitters never win? Yeah, right. In many cases, it's best to quit while you're ahead, as the people who replied to this r/AskReddit question can tell you firsthand.

'I don't want a sandwich, I want a raise': Employee discovers newly-hired 16-year-old makes more money than them, gets offered food instead of a raise

When asked to choose between a single work-sponsored lunch or a permanent raise , why would you ever choose the lunch? It's a long-running joke that companies love to provide pizza Fridays instead of doling out much-needed raises (which could, in turn, let employees buy their own pizza, or you know, more important things in life than that). The company only has to shell out a few hundred dollars for a pizza party, and it does raise employee's spirits for a few hours while their stomachs are ful…

'I wasn't "loyal" to this dealership': Car dealership employee quits on the spot after boss's firing joke goes wrong

This dude's former boss had an interesting idea of what loyalty meant. It's an odd query: should you shop where you work ? If you work at a restaurant, would they expect you to eat their food? Or if you work at a clothing store, would your boss be offended if you showed up wearing clothes from a different store? It depends on the workplace, but it's a bit strange to force requirements like this on your employees. I mean, don't show up to your retail job wearing the competitor's clothing… but wh…
