Have you ever had a boss/higher up flip out on you when you quit?

1 Answer

Answer :

She demanded an explination and then proceded to say, “So you’re leaving because you will get better training, more support and get more leads?” (I was a Realtor at the time.) She was really snippy at me and furious. I really didn’t get it because that is one buisness where you don’t really want to burn bridges. She went out of business and never even made it to enjoy the recent real estate boom before the burst.
