[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s just so stupid to make a scene at work no matter what. You never know which of your colleagues might be in a position to hire you for a job you want down the road, and anyone who witnesses you losing it in such a self-destructive manner is going to hesitate to work with you again. It doesn’t matter how bad the manager is or how much they “deserved it.” What the manager does or doesn’t do doesn’t reflect on you. Only what YOU do about it reflects on you. And you chose to do something that only hurts you and didn’t hurt the manager at all. [/quote] OP here. I didn't make a scene at work. This was all done via text message. The manager hurt me as well with the abuse I put up with. I presumably hurt her; otherwise, people wouldn't make a big deal about calling someone a fata**. I usually don't resort to name-calling, but I will say it felt good. You have no idea how many weekends I put up with bullying. After I resigned, I emailed HR with proof she messed with my time card and clocked me out for hours I was working. That's illegal and could get her fired, and only after I stopped working there did I feel comfortable reporting that. It goes to show how weak and controlled people feel in these jobs. This happened for several paychecks, and I could and should report it to the labor department in my state. People are going about the right way to quit, but remember, this is an at-will job. I guarantee they would have been even nastier if I had given two weeks. I probably won't do this again because I know the signs of a bad workplace. I am grateful I have help from my parents and an internship I have been doing for two years. It turned into a work-from-home internship. It's paid, and I do that once a week. None of my friends who have done service jobs in college have used those jobs as a reference. [/quote]
