A while back I was fired from a major ad agency after I just stopped coming in to work. Some days I would roll in late morning and leave mid afternoon. Other days I wouldn't even show up and never call or email to let them know. It was the worst work environment I've ever been in by far. Horrible management/creative direction and just a general lack of character and culture. So, I basically said fuck it and did whatever I wanted to do. This debauchery lasted a good 6 months before HR began their protocol and my position was finally terminated.
The best thing was the look on the HR woman's face when she explained she had to escort me back to my desk to clean out and then walk me out of the building. I said no need, I'll just leave now, I don't have anything at my desk. Besides their computer/workstation there may have been a single pen left on that desk.
