Mark Stanton Posted September 28, 2004 Posted September 28, 2004 Fantastic Mr O I once walked out of a place after just 3 weeks - the boss threatened me with leagl action for breach of contract I advised him what he could do with his so called contract that I had neither received nor signed - Next day started at new place That's another bridge I never wish to cross again Quote
Mrs Westy Posted September 28, 2004 Posted September 28, 2004 Was that the cat or you? That was me, the cat regularly vomits (but thankfully doesn't do that) over stuff. A while ago he puked in one of my shoes It was so traumatic I had to buy 5 more pairs to make up for it Back on topic: the good thing about being in Environmental Health is that you have to inspect your district for nuisances. After I handed in my notice, knowing that I never wanted to be an EHO ever again, I spent the best part of 6 weeks going out on district and inspecting my lounge for nuisances Not terribly bad I know, but certainly made my last weeks easy Quote

cidersurfer Posted September 28, 2004 Posted September 28, 2004 I know somebody who curled one off on the bosses desk and stuck his ID card in it before leaving Class A lad in school left one in anothers lunchbox once, the joys of rugby! Quote
Arm Posted September 28, 2004 Posted September 28, 2004 Started a job on a Monday and resigned on Wednesday of the same week. MD called me foolish and immature (was probably right) Same MD called me 10 years later and offered me a job, he'd forgotten I'd already worked there. Reminded him I was still foolish and immature and he was a tw*t. Was worth the wait. Quote

stu999 Posted September 28, 2004 Posted September 28, 2004 I know somebody who curled one off on the bosses desk and stuck his ID card in it before leaving I know a lad who filled a BigMac box with a prime example, walked up to the tills at Maccy's, threw the closed box on the counter and said to the manager "This tastes like s**t!" He had a point though... Quote

Rob Navin Posted September 29, 2004 Author Posted September 29, 2004 Quick Update. I decided to have a very easy last week but apart from that I will not be burning bridges. However I can now beat Ash ( first time I have ever been able to say that ) The job that I should have been starting on Monday is now a thing of the past. I was rung with an offer from another company offering lots more rebuild vouchers and as I had not signed any contracts I have hapilly taken that job. To say I am pleased is an understatment. Quote
Mrs Westy Posted September 29, 2004 Posted September 29, 2004 Nice work Well done you must be dead chuffed. I'm sure Paul@.. will be too Quote
Rob Navin Posted September 29, 2004 Author Posted September 29, 2004 Paul is already planning his extension Quote

markcoopers Posted September 29, 2004 Posted September 29, 2004 Have only been made redundant once, and took it quite badly. Did the usual and extracted quite a lot of silencing cash from the company, but to really make me feel better I Fu++ed up the company motor upon handing it back. Met my now ex-boss at a train station, to give him the car and other company perks back. So I smeared a thin layer of 800+ scobie heat units chilli oil on the steering wheel, filled the tank with water, and propped a very precarious jar of garlic oil in the boot. Apparently he got about 10 miles into a 60ish mile journey before grinding to halt, stinking of garlic and developing a rapidly quickening uncomfortable rash. Oh what a great day. Quote
