One night I rage quit (put in my two weeks notice) at a toxic job via text to my boss. This place was miserable. The owner made everyone's life hell and people regularly cried at work sitting at their desks after having to deal with him. My wife was 9 months pregnant and ready to pop and the owner pulled some stupid shit on me over the course of two days. I just said fuck it.

Came in a bit later the next morning and everyone on my floor stood from their chairs and applauded. It was only about 12 people, but it was exactly what I needed in that moment. They all had my back and I'm still friends with most of them today. Total vindication. One of the best decisions I've ever made.
