People of reddit working in extreme situations as offshore oil rigs, miners, seamen etc what was your "f*ck this, I'm out" moment?

Exactly. I had a future boss tell me this in an interview. He said they told me know a manager training course, "they don't quit the company, they quit you."

I actually don't really agree with it, it's probaly what corporate executives tell the managers below them to make them feel bad or something. I 100% quit this job because of rediculous company profit and labor targets. I knew the manager couldn't change anything. They would just fire him and hire someone that would else that would hit the targets.

Fuck it, company was Jack Astor's, I can elaborate more if anyone's really interested. I was a line cook who kept getting sent him early due to slow days even when I had a shitload of prep to do. I would then be reamed out the next mornings by coworkers who were thrown under the bus for the diner shift with no prep done. Or I would be the guy that came in to no prep done and have to cook rice and pasta on the back line whole Manning a two person station alone. Got old after 6 months. Girls that worked in the kitchen cried, I felt like crying.
