Resignations Not Accepted	comment	So you've been working as a secret agent, or for The Mafia/The Syndicate, or as an assassin, or for an Evil Overlord and their Evil Empire, or for a Nebulous Evil Organisation/The Conspiracy, or as a health inspector, when you decide it's time for you to retire, defect, or just that they've gone one step too far and you need to Resign in Protest. Ha! Good luck with that, because once you join a shadowy organization of this sort, you can never leave. If your bosses don't force you to keep working, they'll soon start saying, "He Knows Too Much" and making plans for you to be "permanently retired" with some concrete shoes. This normally only happens in villainous organizations, so the victim is either a villain or an antihero. Expect Hunting the Rogue or a Contract on the Hitman to follow. If it doesn't, then the author may drop a bridge on you just to prove that crime doesn't pay. Depending on the genre, one solution is to become a One-Man Army and simply destroy the former organization. One would think that after having half (or even a third or a tenth) of their forces destroyed they'd get the point and just leave him alone, but they never do. The typical route taken is that you fight your way out, but other solutions include killing off your bosses to put the organization in disarray, or faking your own death. This is different from Unprocessed Resignation, in which the agent would be allowed to retire if the superior would process the necessary paperwork. A subtrope of In It for Life. See also Mandatory Unretirement, The Perils of Being the Best, and Thrown from the Zeppelin.

Resignations Not Accepted / int_16712475	comment	In one episode of The Jetsons, Mr. Spacely hires George to be the judge of a dog show, but tells him his wife's dog has to win or he'll be fired. Then he's coerced by a gangster that his dog better win or George will sleep with the fishes. Even moreso, his family enters Astro in the dog show and expect him to play favoritism. George tries to get out of the mess by resigning as judge, but Spacely orders him to be judge under threat of losing his job otherwise.

Having been chosen to lead them for her defiance of an incompetent predecessor that came within one battle of wrecking the company a decade ago, she tries to call another vote on whether she steps down in expiation for getting them into this mess... and is immediately shouted down.

Resignations Not Accepted / int_1aacbbc9	comment	Dragon Age: If an Antivan Crow like Zevran fails an assassination he/she is considered dead to the Crows. Some Crows like Ignatio are willing to merely pretend the errant Crow is dead. Others want to make absolutely sure that is the case one way or another. If the Warden lives, Zevran will tell him/her that he knows the Crows will keep coming after him and that he will keep on fighting them for his freedom which is canon in Dragon Age II. If the Warden dies, Zevran will return to Antiva and take over the organization. It is both a victory and a defeat. Zevran has his life and a position of power and influence — but he never truly escapes the Crows. The Grey Wardens themselves aren't big on people walking away from them, and even if you try, you still have the Taint in your blood and a sharply reduced lifespan before the "last walk".

Soul Reapers that leave active service officially take "extended leave" and could theoretically be recalled to service at a moment's notice. Soul Reapers officially recorded as "retired" have either died in battle, been promoted to the Royal Guard, or been clandestinely shuffled off to a secret prison where people who are considered a potential danger to society — but who have committed no actual crimes — are locked away forever.

Furthermore, in a somewhat non-fatal version of this Trope, Chuck quits the Buy-More at the end of the same season, but his job hunt at the start of the third is manipulated behind the scenes by the CIA (because he can be surveilled by them more easily at the store), so no other company but the Buy-More will hire him. As of the fourth season, Chuck's attempts to find a job outside the CIA after being given explicit permission to leave are foiled by the CIA, which is apparently willing to go back on its deal with Chuck and blackmail him into working for them again.

Resignations Not Accepted / int_24a18ffe	comment	In The Ship Who..., shellpeople graduate with tremendous debt between the costs of enshellment and of being installed into spaceships and Space Stations. Central Worlds is broadly benign and doesn't like the phrase "Indentured Servitude", so shellpeople are paid salaries with bonuses for various assignments that can go towards repaying that debt. But in many circumstances they have to cover their own repairs, and if paired with incompatible brawns, "divorce" incurs its own fee. Some struggle for centuries to pay their debt. Plenty just give up on it, not seeing indenture as too bad. Shellpeople who owe a lot are pressured into more assignments with less choice than ones who owe less. Helva manages to reach Buy-Out in a mere ten years and notices that her base chief is trying to fudge the numbers. Once those are hammered out he tries to get her on the hook to be refitted in such a way that she's given a new debt. While thinking about freedom, Helva finds herself feeling empty. Between being a ship and her own conditioning driving her to find Courier Service satisfying, she doesn't have a lot of options and finds the idea of working for a company, rather than the higher good she'd been trained for, distasteful. She winds up contracting back into Service and accepts that new debt - though she drives a bargain to become a freelance agent, with more choice in the matter and at a higher rate of pay.

Resignations Not Accepted / int_261c8d3f	comment	The Simpsons: "Don't forget, you're here forever." Of course, despite that, Homer actually did quit and was hired again lots of times since that was said. A combination of Negative Continuity of the series and Mr. Burns' tendency to forget who he is was are likely to blame. Homer's one-time boss Hank Scorpio is a straight-up aversion. The man is not only a James Bond-style supervillain but also the most Benevolent Boss ever. Scorpio takes a time-out during a U.S. Army assault on his headquarters to listen to Homer's concerns about how moving has affected his family and receive his resignation. Scorpio accepts it, gives Homer a short talk about the importance of family, and politely tells him "on your way out, if you wanna kill somebody, it would help a lot."

Nikita turns it down, as she refuses to let the fight end on anyone's terms but her own — after all, she's in it to save the world.

After several of them are crippled/fatally wounded in an attack by an Eldritch Abomination, she orders her people to take them to her (life-force sucking) sisters, who are also wounded. Harry protests, knowing that if the sisters feed on those people, the people will die. Lara calmly states that they know too much about the White Court to allow them to be let go and that with the sheer severity of the injuries sustained, their quality of life is borderline nonexistent. Harry, naturally, finds this to be reprehensible, and Lara retorts that he seems to have forgotten that she's a monster. A neat, habitually polite, incredibly efficient monster.

Justified story-wise due to the fact that you couldn't simply quit if you were drafted into the military and if anything he displayed lighter ways of convincing Don compared to a lot of his counterpart's methods of admonishment. Pete's threatening of Donald is also justified due to the mentality present during World War II — not helping the war effort and doing your patriotic duty was considered tantamount to aiding the Axis.)

Resignations Not Accepted / int_62570927	comment	Marvel Universe: A standard in evil organizations or villains' mooks. No one can leave Hydra alive, or the Red Skull. Even Always Chaotic Evil races are so: Skrulls are said to be euthanized when old. The Hand is especially nasty since they can raise the dead — even death isn't an escape. One that deserves special note is the Scourges of the Underworld, the murderous vigilantes who target supervillains, because this policy is what leads to their undoing. One recruit, Priscilla Lyons, can't bring herself to kill her first mark and wants out, but she knows that they'll be after her; prior to this, every would-be defector (or failure, or even members who were in danger of being caught) has been killed by the others before they can spill any of the group's secrets. But she's smarter than the others — she quickly calls The Avengers' hotline and gets in contact with U.S. Agent, and as a result, they both bring the entire organization down. (A few "lone wolf" Scourges have shown up since then, but the actual organization does not appear to have ever recovered.) Late in The '70s, the Purple Man of Daredevil fame has a Cut Lex Luthor a Check epiphany. He realizes that he doesn't really need to be a supervillain to get what he wants, because he has a Compelling Voice (actually, super-pheromones, but it works the same), so people will just hand him whatever he wants and thank him for the privilege — thus, he tries to quit being a villain and take up a life of hedonistic debauchery. Cue almost a decade of stories in which some Big Bad (like the Kingpin or Doctor Doom) tracks him down and forces him to help with their latest Evil Scheme. Since then, he's apparently become resigned to his fate, and his last several appearances have shown him trying to Take Over the World. Nextwave sees Dirk Anger contemplating/attempting various suicide methods. He eventually succeeds in hanging himself (accidentally), but to his annoyance, Beyond Corporation does not accept the terms of his retirement and brings him back as a zombie. Hobgoblin supplements his supervillain income and acquires henchmen for himself by buying up and "licensing" out lesser villain identities to small-time crooks trying to climb the food chain. He implies that the people who take up these licenses can win or buy their way out of their contracts if they so wish, but when Porcupine tries to do the latter in order to go straight, Hobgoblin feigns that it's fine to lull him into a false Hope Spot before having him beaten to near death and trying to personally murder him.

Luna later essentially gives Celestia an ultimatum, demanding she give up her position as ruler of Equestria (and Lady of Day) and let somepony else take over, not telling Celestia at the time that she already has a new position in mind for her. When they finally get the chance to sit down and talk about it peacefully later on (and Luna does finally tell her about said new position), Celestia admits that she can't do that — after Luna left, the other nobles forced through a law preventing any Prince or Princess from abandoning their duties in such a manner, effectively making abdication illegal, so as to ensure they wouldn't lose their only other alicorn.

The twist ending, however, reveals that his termination from the O.S.I. was a misunderstanding or a manipulation, and they did not hire the assassins. The contracts actually came from the Blackhearts mercenary group who knew all along that Brock would defeat them and just wanted to eliminate the competition. Brock was deceived by his old mentor who infiltrated the Blackhearts as a triple agent (and a transsexual), and ultimately this was all part of a ploy to take down that organization too, and to found the shadowy S.P.H.I.N.X. team out of O.S.I. defectors.

It's just an excuse for Prince Humperdink to murder his bride and go to war with Guilder. As such, Yellin can find absolutely no evidence of any plot and feeling himself incompetent at his job, hands in his resignation. Prince Humperdink refuses to accept his resignation, however, because he needs Yellin to rule Guilder after the war is over. As such, he confesses his true intentions to Yellin, who graciously accepts the Prince's offer to rule Guilder in his name.

The first time is when Louis announces he wants to leave to support Legosi, but Ibuki predicts that and that Louis cares too much about him to kill him, so he gives Free a gun and tells him to kill him when he tries to stop Louis from leaving, letting him leave with a warning. The second time is when they meet again, Free points his gun at Louis, but when Louis's horns break, he says he's no longer the man he promised to kill as a loophole to not have to kill him, and they receive Louis with open arms.

What makes this worse, is that's it's also implied applications are not accepted. Once you're deemed to be a suitable candidate, you're given a brutal Secret Test of Character and then are considered a member, whether you want to be one or not. If you try to resist or go against the wishes of your handler, chances are Section 31 will simply have you killed and replaced with another unwilling agent. In Bashir's case, he was considered useful enough that Section 31 preferred manipulating him into carrying on their missions. Sometimes capitalizing on the fact that he's not going to ignore a threat to the Federation just because it was Section 31 that informed him of it and other times giving him a different mission than what they actually want to be accomplished, so that his attempts to subvert them will play into their hands.

Resignations Not Accepted / int_90e2f673	comment	Any character with the "In For Life" flaw in the BattleTech RPG is a part of some group that will not accept the departure of other members quietly. This includes various types of secret police, assassin clans, organized crime syndicates, and a surprising number of both resistance groups and ultranationalist groups (on account of the idea that one person could undermine the whole operation if allowed to leave and possibly talk). Anyone marked "In For Life" is guaranteed to be hunted by their former comrades if they ever try to abandon their organization, and this can get both persistent and bloody if it's a major government group such as the Draconis Internal Security Force or Capellan Maskirovka.

Mammon becomes infuriated because Fizz is his biggest money-maker, and goes One-Winged Angel as he furiously rants at Fizz for his audacity. Before things can escalate, Asmodeus jumps at Fizzarolli's defence in his own demon form and gets Mammon to back off by publicly admitting he loves Fizz, leaving Mammon with no way to blackmail either of them into forcing Fizz to stay. However, before taking his leave, Mammon warns Asmodeus that he will regret revealing that secret.

Resignations Not Accepted / int_9e2f90f4	comment	One Piece: The Shichibukai are essentially mercenaries, pirates who work for the government to fight and scare off other pirates. So naturally, if one decides to quit, they go back to being pirates, i.e. public enemies #1. It doesn't help that the Shichibukai is made up of pirates with massive former bounties, so as soon as they quit, their bounties are reinstated, leading them to be high-profile targets. With the annulment of the Shichibukai system, every one of them (barring Bartholomew Kuma who is now a mindless cyborg slave to the Celestial Dragons) is being hunted by the World Government. Indeed, the Marines wasted no time, immediately sending out armadas to capture each of the Shichibukai the moment the announcement was made official. The Big Mom Pirates also have this; once you're a part of the crew, you can't leave. Big Mom claims that if someone of strength wants to withdraw, they must turn over one of their limbs, large portions of their lifespan, or even the lives of the person's friends, but according to her daughter Praline, no one has successfully lived to escape Big Mom's control. Only one of her daughters managed to pull this off, and as such Big Mom wants to kill her. During the Onigashima Raid, CP0 places special emphasis in making sure that Who's Who does not survive the night, being a former CP9 agent who failed a crucial assignment, was imprisoned for his failure and escaped before becoming a pirate. While what information he may possess in the present is several years out of date and thus no longer a threat to the World Government, allowing him to escape with his life leaves a bad precedent.

Being a capitalist dystopia, the price you pay for being a colonist is indentured servitude. This somewhat mirrors Real Life colonization of the Americas, but is much worse - the "price" is so high, the servitude lasts for life. You can't even get out by dying - if the death was your fault, you're guilty of the crime of damaging company assets.

Very few of them want to leave in the first place, and those that do have enough clout in the galaxy-spanning government that they could just sneak off to some remote world and take up an "undercover" desk job or something. On the other hand, Inquisitorial Acolytes are going to serve their master until they die, if they're lucky, or until they become Inquisitors themselves. The Tau's Fire Caste (the military). There are only two ways to get out: death, or by opting to take a third "trial by fire" (the first two are given to all Fire Warriors), after which they are allowed to become military advisers instead of continuing to fight. It technically applies to all five castes, though the civilian and government castes are much more chill about letting you retire once you get old. While some Imperial Guard regiments have a fixed length of enlistment, others are more like this; some literally keep fighting until they are too depleted to be useful, then muster out all survivors, while others let enlisted men retire only at periodic reorganisations while taking reinforcements at all times. Depending on when he joins, a soldier in one of these may serve for two years or twenty. Officers have a more defined idea of retirement age, but talented ones may be called back into service when necessary.

But she's smarter than the others — she quickly calls The Avengers' hotline and gets in contact with U.S. Agent, and as a result, they both bring the entire organization down. (A few "lone wolf" Scourges have shown up since then, but the actual organization does not appear to have ever recovered.)

The fact that most of them didn't join willingly was a big part of that, but the Earthbound Immortals were willing to control them like puppets to make sure they didn't actually turn against them. Fortunately, the Dark Signers, except Roman and Rex Goodwin, were revived as normal humans after the Earthbound Immortals were defeated for good.

As the government becomes more tyrannical, his idea spreads and more and more people begin quitting their jobs or working under their means, refusing to be exploited. In response, the government institutes Directive 10-289, in which nobody is allowed to quit their job. If they do, they are branded as an outlaw, and their job is given to somebody else that isn't currently employed, regardless of that person's ability to actually do the job.

If the Warden lives, Zevran will tell him/her that he knows the Crows will keep coming after him and that he will keep on fighting them for his freedom which is canon in Dragon Age II. If the Warden dies, Zevran will return to Antiva and take over the organization. It is both a victory and a defeat.

Resignations Not Accepted / int_e6267766	comment	Star Wars Legends: Uli Divini, introduced in the Medstar Duology, was a genius teen surgeon during the Clone Wars who had enlisted for one tour, after which he would go back to his homeworld and presumably start or join a practice. Instead, since the new Empire was short on doctors, they executed an Imperial Military Stop Loss Order, or IMSLO. As a result of that, Uli served for twenty years, getting rather jaded in the process. He tends to Princess Leia after she is tortured, and since he seems like a pretty decent guy she demands to know why he still works for the Empire; he tells her that he can't leave, he'll be shot. She really rattles his sense of complacent resignment, as does the punishment levied on her homeworld. Working with several others who are similarly horrified, he manages to escape the Death Star's destruction and joins the Rebellion, somewhat to his own surprise. Most of the rest of the cast of Death Star fits this too. Because the Death Star is a secret facility even those who are freely employed on it, like a bartender and her bouncer, are given a multi-year contract that has them agreeing to stay on "the military installation" full time. (In fact there's a strong implication that the bartender and many neighboring business owners had their businesses torched by the Empire to free them up to work on the Death Star.) Others, like a political prisoner with architect experience, have no rights under the Empire at all and are just conscripted.

Meaning that they never live to see retirement, between either their profession as hired monster hunters (or regular mercenaries in a pinch, whatever pays) or the Crapsack World they live in killing them first. Their mutations giving them considerably longer natural lifespans, making them very good at very specific tasks, and being irreversible, pretty much shoehorns them into Witcher work until it kills them. In the third game, Geralt does get to meet a Witcher trying to use funds from Witcher work of dubious ethics to start a "regular" trading business (that is strongly hinted to be less than 100% legal and ethical itself), specifically claiming that he was trying to prove the "never die in their beds" saying wrong. The player can see that this fails.
