    If they’re in a position where they can quit their job because their boss said something dumb, then why not?

    Must feel pretty good.

      My ex-wife was like this. Making snap decisions without planning 5 minutes ahead. She did this exact thing one time. Got a job at a gluten-free bakery. They told her she needs to wear a hat or hairnet, and would need to remove her long nails per local health code. She said no, and quit. Mind you, this was her first job in 6 months while I was supporting the household alone. She told me this was a boundary she had. Biggest. Bullshit. I’ve. Ever. Heard.

        Not sure why you’re being downvoted, that’s definitely something I’d divorce for unless something changed.

        In my mind it was more like, if you have the means (not necessarily by becoming a burden on someone else, but perhaps you have a few months of savings you can live off of) then sticking it to your arsehole boss (which I thankfully do not have) by just scampering, must feel pretty good.
