    I have done this several times:

    • Walked out on a hardware store job. On the walk home, I listened to them plead with me to at least return the headset and radio before tossing it over a bridge.

    • Walked out on a job at the gap. Couldn't be bothered to be told how to fold jeans anymore. Same deal with the headset radio.

    • Walked out on a slick and popular ad agency. Sent them a letter saying that it had been very educational and that I wouldn't be coming back in and to count the two weeks notice towards accrued vacation time. They asked me if I could come in so that they could have a post-mortem learning meeting and I said fuck no I've learned all I need to know.

    • Walked out on a girl I was dating. Couldn't stand to listen to her complain anymore so one day I said "Hup, I'm done" and got off at the next subway stop.

    All cases felt justified. All cases set me home feeling stupendous. Non of it came back to bite me in the ass.

    • Its true about the boss shit. You don't need them to pay bills or be happy about your design practice.cannonball1978
