as Dmulins said, whatever the way things stop (leaving or getting laid of), it's better to be remembered as a nice guy, not a complete childish employee.when I quit my previous job I made a kind of family picture using the simpsons character creator, and sent it to everyone I worked with. They've been very pleased with that, and l when later I asked for a recommandation letter, I was glad I did not fucked up anything (basicaly I quit cause I was fed up, and could bear working at this place anymore...)

everytime i've left a job I write a Last Will and Testament and send it to everyone :) It's clever, witty and everyone remembers you by it. You can leave things to certain people - To Frank, I leave the jammed copier, you take care of it this time. To Julie, I leave my cup of pens, since you're always taking them anyways.
:)
actually, dont do that... it's my thing ;)

be cool in case there is a chance for some severance pay. Also, they may know in the future of other people that need you, so be cool.

it's like this:
Go deep sea fishing before Friday.
Catch a giant [insert local ocean fish at your nearest coast, preferably a giant great white shark]
Keep the huge fish in water and transport it back to the office.
Have a crew of dudes deliver it during your last day, alive, and just toss it into the middle of the office.
It will die soon afterward. This is cruel, yes; but you will walk away knowing you have left them with a much bigger problem than not having you around.

there is this artist in detroit, who makes sculptures and art with garbage from the streets. he bought one of the lots (with the abandoned building, garbage and all) and made this huge series of sculptures and paintings with the trash.
when the city told him that they were knocking down the house that was on his lot because it was in violation of city codes, he said, "if you knock down my house, I will paint polka dots all over this city".
so he did- he painted huge colorful circles all over detroit.
do something like that.

The design world is pretty small. Don't be a child about it. Reputation catches up with you.
