Take this job and shove it! Best "I quit" story I've heard.

Meet Steven Slater, JetBlue flight attendant.

After being told that he cannot remove items from the overhead bin until the plane is at the gate, a passenger called Steven a "mother fucker" and ignored him... possibly even hitting him.

Steven had enough today. He got on the intercom, told the guy to fuck off, grabbed some beer, deployed the inflatable slide to quickly exit, and went home.

A guy can only take so much!!!

Heard about this today. This is funny.
 
I like how he deployed the inflatable ramp to get out of the plane. That was a nice touch.
 
Amen to that... work is such a waste of time & life. The more you work, the more you make, the more stupid shit you get, the more you come to rely on that stupid shit in order to be comfortable, the more you work, the more you try to earn, to get more stupid shit, so you can pamper yourself even more. How many more years am I supposed to "happily" do this? Seriously??? Fucksake. Why not chill someplace cheap and fucking relax and enjoy just being? That's why work is a waste to me.

Not sure if your'e being sarcastic or not, but seriously, you don't own your possessions, your possessions own you......cheap, quiet and relaxing sounds good to me....a small beach town on the west coast perhaps....

my dream, I am going to get that! enough of this rat race...

I wasn't being sarcastic.

Apparently he has a history.....least that's what they said on the radio and wouldn't go into detail other than to say google him.

a history of being boned in da ass mos like...gay dudes are crazy
 
Well thats a no brainer.

I haven't done the due diligence but go investigate and see what you come up with.

he had a breakdown. pretty clear, glad to know he had a history and these are the sort of guys we depend on for our safety. Its one thing to pass out cokes and peanuts, its another when an engine blows up and you have to make a crash landing... remind me not to fly this airline again
 
How about something interesting?

Well, she didn't specify interesting, but so what? The dude got fed up and quit basically. Who cares about his background? What in his history would be relevant to that? His family has a long tradition of getting fed up with jobs and quitting them?

You don't have a lot of friends, do you?

he wasn't fed up, he had a breakdown, something I'm sure you're familar with....:rolleyes:
 
So what is this guy's history? I am on a train, can't easily look it up now.

I'll answer your question, since John Doe is a fuckwit: he's very well-liked by his co-workers, supposedly a super nice guy, defused a situation with an irate passenger a few weeks before this incident, and was being considered for an award from JetBlue.

When asked about passengers by the media upon his release from jail, the first thing he had to say was to compliment the vast majority of passengers for being cordial.
