Are you scared of your boss? Do you lack the sack to quit your job in person? Well then, this app is for you! :D

Thinking about quitting your job? A humorous new app aims to relieve the stress and anxiety of confronting the boss with the news by sending a text message instead. Although the new iPhone app is meant to be funny, its creators are hoping it will take off and people will use it to leave jobs.

Have people really become this spineless now ... even as a joke it isn't very good and if workers actually needed to use such a thing they deserve to be unemployed or underemployed :(
 
Oh this is an absolutely awesome app for getting people in big time trouble if they leave their phone sitting around unattended :D
 
One of the funniest things I ever heard about quitting your job:

"If you won the lottery, would you quit your job?"
"Hell no...I'd just stop going."
 
Doesn't this already exist? Doesn't social media have this covered?
 
If you really lack the spine to put in your notice, I don't really know what to say. I can't see you going far in this life. How do you break up with your lover if you are that spineless, or even get a lover in the first place if you are male wanting a female?

Some employers don't even want a two week notice anymore. They escort you off the property the moment you put your notice in.

They do generally pay the two weeks pay though (even though they walk you early) ... I am always ready with all my ducks in a row (office stuff removed and files backed up) before I give my notice (just in case) :cool:
 
Don't let you pride hurt you.
Leaving a job on bad terms is a very STUPID thing to do. Even if they treat you bad, leave on good terms.
When you apply for another job I can guarantee you they will call your former boss and ask what kind of employee you were. Is he going to tell them you cussed him and walked out?
Good luck getting that job.

I got fired once because I was accused of stealing. I didn't even get a chance to prove my innocence, I was just fired. I was very hurt because I had worked there for several years. But I was gracious and said I was very sorry things had to end this way; but you will find out the truth.
Well it turned out cash drawer would still come up short from time to time. They installed a hidden video camera and caught the thief. The guy that made the accusation against me was the one dipping into the cash register. After they fired him they called me and begged me to come back to work for them and offered me a raise if I would. I already got a better job so I turned them down.
Would the have been so repentant if I cussed them and stormed out? Unlikely.

Seems like it would have been the same for you, either way. You were unjustly fired for an incident, you got a new job. So them being repentent had nothing to do with much of anything, cept maybe making your feel better after the fact.
I got written up recently, for something that was blatantly false. I talked to my manager, and a lot of good that did. All he said was, it wasn't enough or whatever. Nothing about the fact that the things I was written up for had a huge skew on it's truthfulness.
I almost want somethign like this, not because I am too "shy" or spineless to tell them i quit, but it'd would probably the rudest way to do so, without punching them in the face or similar.
