What's your "Fuck this, I quit!" story?

I worked at McDonalds (I'm based in Southern Europe). The restaurant is in the center of the city and one of the largest in whole Europe in general. We had so much work all day, everyday. Kids always making fun of you, so many people running around, homeless people begging for food and hot water so they can make instant coffee, loud customers, always blaming you so they can get a free meal... superfrustrating all the time. I worked mainly as a cashier. For 14 months. My salary was around 220$ A MONTH. At the time, I was 21 and I had to pay my bills, just started living with my boyfriend. This was around 5 years ago. I was a smoker back then and I remember not eating anything throughout the day just so I can buy cigarettes. So fucked up. One day I just came to work and realized I can take it no more. Told the manager that I quit. They were shocked. They even tried to keep me. After all this time, I am grateful for this experience. It shaped me and I learned to keep on moving forward and to keep on pushing myself, day after day.
