He didn't trash company property; he didn't hurt anybody; he gave his former co-workers a good laugh. And he left company property after announcing that he was quitting.

Kudos to that guy!...

I've worked at places where I'd really have enjoyed leaving in a blaze of glory. I hope it all worked out for him and that he was able to get his final check without having to go back to the site.

Walk in, sing a few bars of "Alice's Restaurant" and walk out.

And if he'd done it to his boss, he would have only had an audience of one and a short performance.

In fact, I thought that's what was going to come up when I stumbled across the first video.

But the winner and still champion in the job-quitting competition is still Stephen Slater. Too bad there is no video of that!
