A character is in a job that's making them more and more miserable by the day. Never mind that it's their (probably only) source of income; the plain and simple of it is, the job sucks and is draining them of their energy and patience. Maybe it's a Dangerous Workplace they're employed to. Maybe they're working for Incompetence, Inc. Very possibly, there's No Such Thing as H.R.; or there is, but they sure wish there wasn't. Perhaps they have perpetual insecurity about how safe their job is, and it's not helped by the overbearing supervisor or office manager they've got. Maybe they just recently got Promoted to Scapegoat or have to put up with an incompetent boss. It could be that they're the Beleaguered Assistant, or the Only Sane Employee in an office populated by those who should rightly be certified insane. Or, chances are good they've been subjected to the Delegation Relay one time too many. Or perhaps the boss is a Corrupt Corporate Executive and the character's morals can't allow them to stick around that kind of environment. The reasons vary, but the result is the same. Resentment builds... Tranquil Fury is fostered... and then the character's patience goes flying out the window. "You know what? TAKE THIS JOB AND SHOVE IT!" The recipient may be a jerkass who thoroughly deserved it. The employer/supervisor may also be a parent or relative or somebody who's SUPPOSED to be a good guy. Note that it doesn't have to be the word-for-word line of this trope's title that is said; the manner of Rage Quit displayed against the supervisor/boss is essentially the heart of the trope. Be careful, though; if done too often, it may lead others to query why you always leave one job after another (in which case, it might be you who has the real problem). If the person goes on a violent rampage instead of simply quitting, that's Going Postal. If they have to return humbly, that's Crossing the Burnt Bridge. Compare Screw This, I'm Outta Here (for a range of situations that may or may not involve one's job), Rage Quit (for angrily quitting a game rather than a job) and Insignia Rip-Off Ritual (for examples of quitting or being fired that are symbolized by destroying an icon related to the job). May involve a "Reason You Suck" Speech. A subtrope is Resign in Protest, where a specific action or decision by their organization leaves someone feeling unable to continue doing the job in good conscience and leaving as a form of protest. If the person is forbidden from leaving or is forced back in not of their own accord, it's Resignations Not Accepted or Mandatory Unretirement. Not related to To Hell with This Infernal Job, though the subject of that trope may very well be feeling this way when they quit their own job. |

It's the central plot of I... Don't Want to Work Anymore I Quit Being An Adventurer. Even if You Treat Me Better Now, I Won't Do It. I Will Never Work Again. The protagonist Aix was horribly exploited by his guild, to the point of being treated like a slave. When his guildmaster outright dares him to quit, Aix happily does so, and utterly refuses to return no matter what kind of offers they try tempting him back with. They've burned every bridge with him, and he won't go back, even if he has no other prospects, at all. | |

RainbowDoubleDash's Lunaverse: In the non-canon story Nightmares Yet to Come, after several months of arguing with Rainbow Dash, Cloud Kicker reaches a breaking point and storms out, after it looks like Rainbow's fired her. Except Rainbow hasn't fired her, she was just suggesting Kicker take the day off in the worst way possible, and in fact the only pony who'd know how to fire Kicker is Kicker herself. When Raindrops goes looking for Kicker, she finds the mare having a sobbing fest, since Kicker actually likes her job. Even Rainbow Dash, not normally an easy pony to work with, seems rattled by how far Cloud goes, and sort-of apologizes. Though Cloud still gets put on stress leave. | |

Chuck. The title character said this to Emmett at the end of the show's second season. At that point, Chuck had realized he didn't need his cover at the Buy More since he was intersect free. He also had a lot more experience so he could easily find another job. Casey also quit too. Though despite this, he always manages to find himself back at the Buy More. Because the CIA manipulated things so no other company but Buy More would hire him. | |

The Simpsons: In "And Maggie Makes Three", Homer gets the chance to work his dream job at the bowling alley and so decides to quit the power plant by...putting a drink on Mr. Burns' desk without a coaster and dumping his trashcan (which contains a single wadded paper ball) on the floor. However, he thoroughly leaves Poke the Poodle territory by putting Burns in a headlock and playing his head like a bongo drum ("Oh, I should be resisting this, but I'm paralyzed with rage...and island rhythms!"). But since this is a Flashback episode, he had to return somehow. When Homer was working at the Kwik-E-Mart to pay for Lisa's pony, after Lisa gives up the pony, he tells Apu, "You can take this job and restaff it!" Referencing the song, but not the exact quote. In "Lisa vs. Malibu Stacy", Grandpa Simpson is working at Krusty Burger. He eventually quits after he starts complaining with his friends about what's not on the breakfast menu, plus the fact that he's supposed to be old. As he puts it: |

On the Dream SMP, Quackity did this in the middle of the Manburg Rebellion arc. When Schlatt ordered that the White House be taken down, a massive argument occurred between him and Quackity, who regarded it as the last straw for him to stay in Manburg. Quackity eventually told Schlatt during the argument that he could "find [him]self another Vice President", and went on to shoot Schlatt, taking his second canon life (out of three total), before fleeing the country and later joining Pogtopia. | |

In Review Forrest is asked to review the experience of quitting a job. His producer arranges for him to get a job which he instantly quits with a grand speech, before concluding it doesn't qualify unless you've worked there first. So he starts working at a coffee stand, overhauls how the stand runs, makes it much more successful and himself indispensable while getting along well with his co-workers, and was clearly happy to keep working there indefinitely until his producer reminds him of the point of the exercise. With obvious discomfort and guilt, he repeats the same speech before walking out. Quitting your job didn't get a very good score. | |

The titular Dilbert attempted this once, working alongside Wally in secret on company time to form their own startup, and once the product was ready, revealed this to the Pointy-Haired Boss and began a mockery dance. Then the Boss pointed out that since they used company resources and time for their startup, the COMPANY owned the product. Another strip had Dilbert meet a guy who was taking this trope to such an extreme that he was trying to turn his resignation letter into an off-Broadway musical. |

Retail had an arc where assistant manager Josh lied about a job offer from a competing store in order to get a raise. Marla later found out about this and told this to district manager Stuart. Eventually, Josh figured out that Marla and Stuart knew, so he started looking for a new job before they had a chance to fire him (it was Christmas season, and there was no time to hire and train a replacement). After he got one, he invoked this trope while giving his 2 weeks notice to Marla, bragging about how, in the end, he succeeded with his ploy anyway. Of course, this pissed Marla off, and she promptly fired him on the spot, not letting him work out his notice. | |

Guardians of the Galaxy: In the aftermath of defeating the Badoon, the Guardians go their separate ways. Charlie-27 takes up a job helping rebuild Earth, but the foreman continuously bullies him (even knowing who Charlie is and what he's done. The guy just doesn't care). After a short while, Charlie gets fed up and uses his Super-Strength to wrap the foreman up in girders, and takes a permanent lunch break. Judging by the expressions on the other workers' faces (unabashed glee), they're not going to make any effort to help the foreman either. | |

In Power of Hope ~PreCure Full Bloom~, after spending the entire series working as a secretary for a manager who overworked and underpaid her, Kurumi, finally finds the strength to tell him she quits. When he mockingly asks what she's going to do, she plainly tells him she's going to be Prime Minister of the Palmer Kingdom, leaving the man completely dumbfounded at her answer. | |

This happens offscreen in Persona 5. After you change the heart of an abusive boss, Mishima, who gave you the request, will text you to inform you that the boss was fired, and while the student working part-time (who'd brought the issue to Mishima's attention) was offered money to stay quiet, he refused and quit his job. | |

In Adventure Comics #424: Crypt Of The Frozen Graves, sick of putting up with a bullying coworker who is being favored by their boss, and feeling her job as a camerawoman is undermining her morals, she hands in her resignation letter and storms out of the premises right away. | |

The Owl House episode "Labyrinth Runners" features a coven scout named Severine who is repetedly belittled by her superiors. Eventually, it proves to be too much and she quits, throwing her mask on the ground and storming off after the mission is a failure. There's also a bit of Biting-the-Hand Humor involved, as she was voiced by series creator Dana Terrace, who was almost certainly using it as an opportunity to air her grievances about the show being Screwed by the Network. | |

In Banjo-Tooie, Klungo stays loyal to Gruntilda Winkybunion for most of the game, despite the beatings he receives from her for failing to defeat Banjo and Kazooie. With each beating he receives, he looks more and more beat up. After he loses to Banjo and Kazooie a third time, he realizes that each beating he receives makes him less and less handsome, to the point where his wife won't find him attractive anymore if he keeps working for Grunty. Also realizing that things will only get worse for him if he continues to work for Grunty (he won't get any chance of a promotion, days off, or pay), Klungo quits, turning to Banjo and Kazooie's side and pursuing a career in making video games (which he actually does in Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts). | |

CM Punk during "The Summer of Punk II" in WWE. Punk, sick and tired of all the crap he had to deal with in the WWE despite being one of the greatest wrestlers in the world (if not THE greatest), decided to walk out the door the moment his contract expired on July 18, 2011. He also decided to take the WWE Championship with him. However this was an in-story example and he came back to the company again to challenge John Cena just as soon as Cena had been reestablished as WWE's new Champion. He would later do it for real after being eliminated from the Royal Rumble in 2014, simply refusing to come back to work because he was sick and tired (literally sick, as it turned out) and just couldn't face doing the job any more, leading to a retirement from the ring that lasted for 7 years until he returned to the business in 2021 to join All Elite Wrestling. | |

moral of the story (Nyame): Laurel admits in her Suicide Note that she'd secretly hated working at the DA's office due to how flagrantly corrupt most of her coworkers were. Thanks to some Paparazzi publishing said note in several tabloids, triggering several investigations to be opened. After Laurel is brought Back from the Dead, they attempt to hire her back in a blatant Publicity Stunt; Laurel naturally rejects the offer. After learning the role Oliver played in driving Laurel to kill herself, Felicity quits both her job at Queen Consolidated and Team Arrow, disgusted by her former boss/friend's actions. |

In one of Seinfeld's most famous stories, "The Revenge", George does one of these, only to gradually realize he's made a big mistake since he has no other prospects or skills. His (ineffective) solution is to go in on Monday and act like nothing happened. This was based on Larry David's having done the same thing when he was a writer for Saturday Night Live. | |

AJ Styles, much in the vein of Punk, did the same thing to TNA in storyline (in fact, it was a rehash of Punk's storyline and really poor one too), and in Real Life at the end of 2013. By that point, even he was sick of all the bullshit the company had put him and his coworkers through — trying to get him to re-sign with a forty percent pay cut was the last straw.note In TNA's defense, the lowball offer wasn't intended to insult Styles, it's just that they were broke. Of course, Styles probably responded with something to the effect of "You wouldn't BE broke if you didn't spend the last 10 years doing the same idiotic garbage that killed WCW with the exact same people!", and he was right. They tried to make amends in 2015 by offering him a huge sum of money to wrestle one last match at Slammiversary along with being inducted in their hall of fame (making him the only inductee to have actually earned his fame in the company rather than somewhere else), but he turned them down flat, citing ROH and NJPW as his main priorities. Everyone else who read between the lines knew what he was really saying (as one writer put it: "Duck Fixie"). | |

Miraculous Ladybug Salt-Shots: Spots of Change follows the fallout of Marinette deciding to give up being Ladybug, as she's tired of everyone taking advantage of her in both her superhero and civilian identities. Downplayed in that she remains the Guardian; however, she transfers to another school in order to get away from her False Friends, and her successor Anatis makes clear to Chat Noir and Alya that she will not tolerate any of their bratty, entitled behavior. | |

In Helluva Boss, Fizz suffered constant abuse under his boss and the Sin of Greed, Mammon. When he's finally had enough, not only does he quit during a national live competition Mammon expected Fizz to win, he does so in the form of a Cluster F-Bomb/"The Villain Sucks" Song aptly called "Two Minutes Notice". | |

One of the episodes of the final season of Family Matters called A Pain In Harassment had Harriot having to deal with an unruly supervisor who constantly belittled his employees and rejected any suggestions they made. No one dared speak out against him for fear of losing their job. However, Harriot eventually gets fed up and tells him off, leading to this exchange. | |

Part of the backstory of Dogma: Loki, the Angel of Death, got very drunk. As a result of this, he let his friend Bartleby talk him into leaving the position — meaning tossing down his flaming sword at God's feet, declaring that he quits, and giving Him the finger. Unsurprisingly, this gets both of them banished from Heaven for all eternity. This also has the side effect of also banning angels from getting drunk, which Metatron laments. | |

This Bites!: The Straw Hats' Roaring Rampage of Rescue during the Enies Lobby arc, which saw them air a metric ton of the World Government and the Marines' dirty laundry, saw several marines defect or quit in disgust. A later chapter reveals that there were more resignations in the twenty-four hours within the incident than there have been in the last two years. The Thriller Bark incident similarly incited several resignations from the Marines — specifically, those Marines that were victims of Moria, and had their shadows returned to them by the Straw Hats. Hell, the first call during Cross' post-victory SBS broadcast was a Marine calling in to do exactly that. The absolute crowner, however, has to be the Sabaody Revolution arc, where Sengoku turns in his resignation after Cross allows Silvers Rayleigh to expose the truth about Gold Roger's capture and execution on the SBS, destroying the Marines' last shred of credibility. After the events of the Marineford Misery arc, he makes good on it and quits his job as Fleet Admiral of the Marines. |

Two Letters starts six months after Marinette resigned as Ladybug, having grown sick of how everybody expected her to solve all their problems for them while taking her for granted. She passed the Earrings over to a Sketchy Successor she deemed to be "the kind of Hero Paris wanted and deserved." Problems naturally arise when she learns people are trying to figure out the original Ladybug's Secret Identity and track her down so they can make her return to service, insisting that she has to help them despite how they treated her because "That's just what heroes do"... | |

One episode of Family Guy has Peter winning it big in the state lottery, and plays it up like he did this. Then subverts it. Then double subverts it. | |

In 2022, WWE Women's Tag Team Champions Sasha Banks and Naomi reached the end of their rope with the booking they were being subjected to. Winning the poorly-regarded tag belts and resolving to establish them as a prize to be taken seriously, both women were very upset when creative, instead of pushing them as a tag team, instead expected them to job as individuals to the Womens' singles champions. This eventually culminated in a backstage argument before an episode of RAW where they were expected to both take part in a Six-Pack Challenge to determine the #1 contender to Bianca Belairnote where according to some reports, one of the WWE officials directed sexist and/or racially charged language at them which ended with both women walking into the office of Head of Talent Relations John Laurinaitis, throwing the Women's Tag Team belts onto his desk, and walking out of the company. WWE uncharacteristically buried both women on commentary as "unprofessional", pretty much solidifying that they didn't think there would be any possibility of smoothing things over, and Sasha and Naomi would go on to rebrand themselves and redebut in other companies, as Mercedes Moné in World Wonder Ring ST★RDOM and as Trinity in Impact Wrestling respectively, where both would win top women's singles championships in short order. | |

Early on in the pilot episode of Breaking Bad, Walter White worked as a cashier at a car wash for additional income where his boss Bogdan constantly has him wipe down cars, which Walt detested. As soon as Walt receives his diagnosis of terminal lung cancer later on in the episode, Walt completely snaps at Bogdan when he tried to make him wipe down cars again, and then storms out the door. | |

High Noon: Even if totally wordless, when Sheriff Will Kane rips off his sheriff's badge and tosses it to the ground before Riding into the Sunset with his wife, sickened that almost everybody in town was a Dirty Coward who refused to stand up to Frank Miller and nearly got him killed, he definitely means this Trope. | |
