Economy

His discussion of putting in your 2 weeks notice is so funny.

After graduating college while waiting to go into the Navy, I was a clerk in the men's department for the Bon-Ton Department Store. I had already put in my 2 weeks notice. I got called in for a write up about a week into my notice.

I had never been written up before in my life. I was written up because a grouchy customer thought I had not waited on her quickly enough. A final FU from Bon-Ton. I quit on the spot. No 2 weeks notice for you.

I asked why did they write me up when they knew I was quitting anyway. They didn't have an answer that made any sense. They said something about this complaint being so bad, (I hadn't gotten off the ladder quickly enough to suit the angry woman.) and claimed others had complained before. If others had complained before, why hadn't anyone told me? The HRO idiot just said, "I told them you would quit". Well she was right.

I never stepped into a Bon-Ton since then. It's a running joke in my family how stupid Bon-Ton is. My friends and family never visited a Bon-Ton because they knew my story. I like to think I contributed to their bankruptcy in 2018.

The best revenge is surviving your enemies. Don't tell me how to hold a grudge.
