Last day hijinks!

[CrazedClerkthe2nd]

I'll be done at the call center soon (YAY!)

Just wondering if anyone had some good suggestions or stories about fun stuff you've done on your last day at a particular job.

I'd like to come up with a creative yet non-damaging way to have a little fun before I leave that day.

My last night at the gas station where I worked third shift, I brought in a fifth of Soco and we had a party. I even had customers bringing me beers from the bar across the street.

Call center? Oh that's easy. My dream on my last day/day I finally quit, I pray to god I have a customer on the phone at 6 because this is exactly what I'll say:

"Oh, I'm sorry, sir/maam? I just realized that it's 6 o'clock. It's my last day, so that means I'm past the point of giving a shit. Have a nice day! *click*"

I think I'll dance out of the building on that day...or if I win the lottery.

My last day at my old travel call center - last call:

ME - "I'm sorry sir. We're only allowed to book afterhours if it's deemed an emergency by your travel coordinator"

SC - "But it **is** an emergency!!! I'm travelling to Madrid in 4 weeks. I might get a better fare if I book it tonight (Sunday 11pm) instead of Monday (with his company agency). I consider this urgent!!"

Side note - this may very well be true when booking internationally. But each company has rules for what constitutes emergency travel on the weekends, since they pay extra for calling us. His company was one that didn't want us booking unless they were stranded or travelling the next morning.

ME - "Then clearly your idea of an 'emergency' differs from your company's...and MINE, for that matter. Have a nice evening."

And I hung up.

Granted, I didn't want to burn bridges, so I wouldn't have said it if the call recording system hadn't been broken for 3 weeks prior to this. I knew I could get away with it and, although not HORRIBLE, it felt GOOD!

When I quit working at the RAC agency that "tries harder" I finished the shift they left me on, all by myself, with approximately 100+ rentals to do, and when the managers came back in the next morning, I clocked out, handed them my badges and walked out the door.

At that point, I was well beyond caring if I burned any bridges or not.

When I came back to collect my final paycheck, the district manager, a real cocky SOB was sitting lazily in the dispatch office and asked if I would consider coming back, and he handed me my ID card with my check.

I took it, and picked up a pair of scissors from the desk, and proceeded to cut it up in front of him, dropping the pieces on his lap before leaving again. Nobody spoke a word as I did this, and his face was unreadable. I don't think he believed I was serious.

That night was pretty much the last straw in a long line of incidents that was basically them (local management) putting the screws to me, and I wasn't about to give them another chance.

I have many, many fantasies.

[crazylegs]

I have many, many fantasies.

Try to stay on topic please!

In my first job I wished to all possible dieties that I would have a particularly stupid customer return a faulty product so I could put 'Customer too stupid to use product' on the return label.

[Becks]

I know what I'm going to do, and I already have managerial permission for this.

One of the women who works the morning shift is convinced that I don't do anything.

Yeah.

So...my last night, I will do only a few things. Check the salad bar (as needed) and pull product at closing time.

No cutting for the next day.

No wrapping.

I'll show her what me doing (next to) nothing is.

My fantasy would be to flash my entire 3rd shift crew, then turn around and moon them, roundhouse kick Dickhead the room runner right in the face, and then burn the building to the ground.

For now, I'm thinking a simple "Fuck you all" is a good idea. That or just sneaking out early :P

[Misanthropical]

At the first call center I worked at, we had a boss from Hell. She was a nasty bitch who did what she could to make life hell for everyone.

So, one day she is showing a prospective client around and one of the guys working there has hard core porn going on his computer complete with the volume all the way up.

He was fired, but he was laughing at her, since the prospective client walked out and took their business some where else.

He was our hero!

Your managerial people rock. Some people just can't comprehend what other people actually do.

You might consider researching the decency laws for your state, county, and city, and then wearing as little as is legally required when you leave and go back just to pick up your final check. Bonus points if you give them the "kiss my ass" pat on your way out the door.

I'm all for harmless pranks, but please remember that this is the last memory they will have of you and there may come a time when you might have to return. Burning bridges is never a good idea.

Are they hiring for 3rd shift? ;p

Yup, I've seen someone do that..

At the movie theater the lobby had a huge dome in the center that caused a rtather impressive echo. (If you yelled it would go throughout the entire building, even around the corners, and into a couple theaters as well). Well he got fed up, looked at a manager, said "I quit", JUMPED the counter, walked right under the dome, ripped his vest off, yelled "FUCK YOU!" as loud as possible, and walked out.

The entire lobby went silent and everyone stopped for a couple seconds. Even a couple people in the first few theaters came out to see what the commotion was.

Most of us couldn't stop laughing at it... the managers were a little peeved.
