    I did the professional thing and gave notice and played nice but didn’t do any work beyond the bare minimum to ensure a smooth handoff.

    But then, with an hour to go on my last day my boss asked me again to do something that isn’t and shouldn’t be my job.

    I left that shit on read and got drunk.

    I was willing to let things slide for a peaceful exit after winning our first contract, as long as the company played nice with my union and respected my right to organize. Instead the maker of Call of Duty fired me for talking about gun safety, so now it’s time for a fight. Lucky for me Activision doesn’t know how to bust unions, you’re supposed to fire organizers before they win

    Left my last job on bad terms despite doing everything to the letter of my contract. They were hugely offended, betrayed that I hadn’t given them a heads up 3 months before handing in my notice. Even tried to reject my resignation letter.
