Giving my resignation!

OK, so I'm giving in my resignation in about 20 minutes.

While I am EXTREMELY excited and glad to FINALLY be quitting my suckass job, I'm super nervous, too!

EEEEEEEEEEEEEP!

Advice?

WISH ME LUCK!

Didn't you just become a Manager? Or is this a different job?

^ heheheh if you don't like the job you're quitting you should leave with a bang. Run around screaming and knocking shit over... leave a surprise in the Coffee Machine and stick your tongue out at everyone you can. :)

I actually really like everyone I work with except my supervisor can be super anal bitch of the world at times.

So, great news.
My fucking GM is in a closed-door meeting. WTF!!!

There are certain stores I'm not allowed back into due to the way I resigned. It's fun!

Make a giant resignation sign and erect it in the centre of your work space! I've done it before, it works!

^ Wouldn't that be golden!

I wish I didn't need/want their reference, I would tell them to go fuck themselves for lowballing me in the salary dept!

Way to go Nat. I know... It's scary even when you know you're doing the right thing. Resignations are never fun... Unless you do something crazy like it sounds like Robyn did. Then that'd be fun. But most people need the reference tho. So no sense burning bridges.

I set up a sign at the end of the day that went like this:

"Dear Management,

I hereby tender my resignation, effective imediately. Never bother me again.

ps - This is not some perverse April fools joke. I'm seriously never coming back. Keys are on the floor!"

Then I locked up and never looked back.

it was a good job and the company has been good to me (i've been here around 4 years, promoted 3 times). i wouldn't say it was stressful, but it wasn't exactly comfortable either. you get to know these people and its sad to go sometimes. i've quit jobs before too, but they weren't important ones.
