You may not agree with Steven Slater‘s dramatic exit (both literally and figuratively) from his position as flight attendant for JetBlue; cursing out a rude passenger, announcing his departure, and then leaving the plane by pulling the emergency chute…but you probably can relate. Who among us hasn’t fantasized about telling a boss or a customer off, quitting our job, and making a quick getaway? Hollywood knows this and continues to pump out movies that play to this fantasy. Think of all the movies with memorable “I quit” scenes. Here is my favorite. But don’t try this at home kids; keep the fantasy a fantasy and try to find a less dramatic way to quit…in the real world, the short-term satisfaction is rarely worth the potential for long-term career damage.
