"I worked at a small Save-a-Lot in high school. I needed to take the SAT across state at 8 a.m. and, as you know, it's a long test. In advance I requested it off. The day the schedule was released I was scheduled.

"I brought it up to my boss and he said, 'Why do you need the day off?' I told him and he said, 'Why should I let you have time off for that?'

"I was also denied a nickel raise (big deal) when I worked every weekend and everyone's shift.... but someone's nephew got a quarter raise and literally only worked 3 months out of the year.

"I threw my till at him and said, 'I quit!' He asked me, 'When?' I said, 'Now.'

He was enormously flabbergasted and I stormed out. Best feeling ever." --LeslieKnopeNo2

"Worked at a GNC store for a month ten years ago. The lady who owned/ran the franchise was a mega b*tch and would always find ways to casually insult her employees.

"Anyway, one day I was opening the store with her, when she turned to me and asked 'Did you eat breakfast today?'

"'Uh... yes, I did,' 'Oh. Well then do you have a mental disability of some sort...? You don’t seem to understand what I tell you, dear.' But she said it in a sweet, fake way, as though she was legitimately concerned that I was possibly mentally handicapped (I’m not). This was one of many, many fun insults, and I was done.

I said 'Excuse me,' walked to the back room, grabbed my stuff, and started walking out. She asked where I was going, and I just said, 'See ya, b*tch.' She yelled after me but I don’t recall what she said. All in all, pretty satisfying." -- Sharkattackr

Worse Than No Raise

"When my raise was $75. Not $75 more per check, $75 more peryear.

"You know how it's more insulting to leave a sh*itty tip than to leave no tip at all? That's how getting a raise of about .2% felt, especially since I'd just put in 3 straight months of ~60 hour weeks. The boss is lucky I didn't burn the place to the ground." --SevenSixOne

"I was managing a cafe for nearly 4 years single handedly. Massive one too. We had won awards like you wouldn't believe, I had managed to push revenue up a little over 300% during my time there. I bled for that place. Never took breaks or holidays, always went above and beyond, poured my heart and soul into it. The owners were very hands off. Went on overseas holidays 4 or 5 times a year. Would actively be in the business about 8 hours a week between them.

"Last year in June I gave them the heads up that I was going to take a week off over Christmas. It was the first holiday I had booked, I was traveling to see my dad who was extremely ill. Like, not sure if he'd make it sick. That's fine, they understood, I had an excellent team in place who would survive without me.

"2 weeks before my scheduled holiday I get a text from the owner. 'So we have decided to go to Australia for Christmas! We just booked the flights. Obviously as manager we expect you to be in the cafe while we are gone so we will have to cancel your time off.'

"No apologies, nothing. So I quit.

1 year later I heard through the grapevine they've had to file for bankruptcy." --BreeCC

So satisfying, isn't it!?
