Hey, so i just fucking quit my new job rn. I got offered something better last minute but didn’t wanna be a dick and cancel on them at the last minute, so I went through with it anyways and then QUIT RIGHT AFTER THEY HIRED ME LMFAO. It felt so good man, total payback for all those times I wasted my time interviewing only to never get the gig.

Yes... Got a job at a for-profit, predatory college. Lasted one week. It was so toxic and depressing. I worked in their computer lab/library area and wasn't anywhere near recruiting, but sat in meetings where they showed no compassion at all for their students, openly talked shit about other staff members not at the meeting, and were just generally awful. I got another job offer and even though it didn't start for 2 more weeks, I quit on the spot. I was really happy when it closed.
