Have you ever quit a job out of spite?

Have you ever quit a job out of spite?

Here’s a more natural and fluent version of your text:

We’ve all fantasized about the pettiest way to quit a job—and more people are actually doing it. “Revenge quitting,” where you leave your workplace in the most dramatic or unprofessional way possible, is becoming more common. A recent Reed Group survey found that 15% of UK workers have revenge quit, with some handing in their notice at 4:55 PM on a Friday or walking out during the busiest (and most inconvenient) times.

Have you ever quit a job just to spite a terrible boss? Do you have any funny or petty resignation stories? If so, we’d love to hear from you. What made you hate your job? What was the final straw? How did you make your exit as disruptive as possible? Did it affect your chances of getting another job?
