Jenny looks like a dirty hpoa.
I see what you did there.

Related, watch how this broker's assistant quit her job:

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/0..._n_677089.html

We've heard of some pretty crazy ways to quit your job , but one woman's use of a tell-all dry erase board takes the cake.

"Jenny the Assistant" quit her job yesterday by sending a company-wide email with photos of her resignation letter written in a series of hilarious dry erase board posts, which are chronicled in full at the Chive. (Hat tip to Dealbreaker)

In the photo essay, she goes on to disclose Spencer's use of his time, which she discovered by tapping into a loathed monitoring system he had set up: four hours a week of Scottrade, and 19.7 hours a week of Farmville.

Seems a bit too contrived to be true - at the end of it she is stripped down to her cut-offs.

I feel like I've seen a similar story somewhere, if only I could locate it...

I find the timing of Jenny's quitting highly suspect, almost perfectly timed to steal the thunder from the flight attendant. I await confirmation from a place like Snope's as to its authenticity.

Flight attendant:



Jenny:




Which story would you rather read about?

Yeah Jenny has the pics, but Steven had the best exit if you ask me. Let's forget that we are men for a second and realize that he grabbed some brews and busted out the emergency slide, I just don't see how some pictures with whiteboard commentary can beat that.

Steven:
  • Argues with a passenger
  • Grabs the intercom and calls said passenger ahole/mfer
  • Grabs two beers
  • Deploys emergency exit slides
  • Grabs his carry on items, and exits plane on emergency slide
  • Dives home and bones his boyfriend
  • Gets arrested mid penetration
Jenny:
  • Is hot

I would plow her, I would applaud his style.

Agreed. Jenny's way is pretty awesome. But Steven is just badass. The only way his exit would be more bad ass is if the plane was mid flight and he busted out a parachute and jumped.

If he would have lit up a cigar, shotgunned a beer and then deployed the slide it would have approached epic awesomeness.

He's stupid for not grabbing more than 2 beers.
And she's... well... just stupid.

Jenny has to get points for quitting in a way that won't cause her to end up in jail.

If you're not feeling particularly gung-ho in your quitting approach, you can always make off with as much stationery as you can on your last day. Nothing wrong with being fully stocked and ready to work on your resume.
