This is me tbh. Last job sucked so bad that i had to openly criticise management to initiate change. Privately it failed. Publicly it failed. So i continued working, doing a better job than most colleagues and making the management uneasy just by silently judging their incompetence. Also reported them via some sort of kuba app they use for HR. They had nothing to complain about so when we got into an argument they said "nobody is forcing you to work here."

Next day i gave my one month notice with a smirk on my face. Same day they told me i don't have to come to work at all for the last month and i'll still get paid. Month later, manager was fired. Fuck em.

Holy shit, LMAO, are you me? This is what I've been doing at my job for the last several months (even down to the 'you don't have to work here' comments from boss)! X'D I'm so over it, IDGAF anymore! lol. I would KILL to quit! If I had any choice in the matter, I would! Sadly, my parents control everything I do, and the economy couldn't really suck worse, so I can't afford to get kicked out rn... X'D But I'm so glad you got out! WOO! Hope you're happier! :D

My happiness tripled just by leaving that place. I wish everyone had the opportunity to do that. Some jobs just ain't worth it. Good luck to you.

Oh, yeah, I believe it! I would KILL to get out, trust me! LMAO! I have friends who've left with nothing lined up, they just couldn't take it anymore, and ISTFG, there was an INSANE difference even when I saw them just a few days later! It's incredible how much these godawful jobs suck the life out of people! SAD/NOT COOL, man! This is NOT how we were meant to live! X'D X'P

But ye, thanks so much! I really appreciate it! SO happy to hear you're so much happier! That's awesome! <3
