We told ourselves that it was just a temporary situation and that things would get better. But they never did. And then one day, we just said “f*ck it” and quit. Here are 22 people who did just that and are now much happier for it.

Whether it is because of bad management, toxic co-workers, or an uninspiring work environment in general, people decide to leave their jobs with little notice.
We hope these stories inspire those who feel like they can’t do anything about the situation they’re currently in at work.
