40 Brutal “I’m Done” Moments That Made People Nope Out Immediately

When I was 14 I worked in a grocery store stocking shelves, bagging groceries, and cleaning. I worked there for the whole summer and it was just a pretty normal dehumanizing awful minimum wage job that I hated. Rude costumers and other employees that liked to yell at me. Anyway one day at the end of the summer they called me to the bathrooms on the intercom. I show up to the bathroom to find that someone literally took a number two the wall. Like I don't even understand how this was physically possible but there was straight up mess on the wall. That was the last straw for me so I went to the bosses office and told him I quit and got the h**l out of there. I was literally like the h**l with this, I'm out.

Left for a last minute camping trip after dark. Deep in the woods camping on a river, no other places to camp that were closer than half a mile (we camp the area frequently and know it well). We were just going to sleep in the back of the SUV for the first night. Went to bed around 11 pm. I heard whispering and pushed my friend, who immediately said did you hear whispering too. Oh dang. Yes. He reaches up and turns on the headlights, grabs a flashlight, gets out looks around. Nothing. Turn everything off, lay down. Hear it again. He honks the horn, looks around. Nothing. No noise, no footprints that weren't ours. Obviously we were both freaked by then and sat up watching. Heard it again and said we're out of here. Still get goosebumps thinking about it. We both know sounds travel on water. This was different from anything either of us have experienced. Told this to a friend who is Native American and she said it was stick match men.

Update-- native friend said they are Stick Indians and you are supposed to throw stick matches so they leave you alone. You are not supposed to whistle at night or follow them, as they will drag you further into the forest. There is a lot more to it, but that is the basic idea. It definitely does not make us feel better about what we heard.

Worked at a factory during summer break in college. Manual labor, greasing machines, changing furnace filters, driving around town picking up parts from machine shops, etc. I actually loved it and had a great time hanging out with the electricians and welders.

Then one day the parts guy pulled me into his room and told me to sort and clean up a huge mess of tiny parts (washers, nuts, bolts, and other assorted tiny metal parts). I lasted about a day before I started going crazy. It was so infuriating trying to tell the minute differences between two screws or bushings, and there were thousands of them. The summer was just about over anyway, so I just quit and enjoyed a week off before school started.

Someone asked me to help them move and they had nothing boxed up.

When I worked my tushy off at a physically laborious type of job in the middle of winter to the point where I was sweating so I could be so far ahead of schedule I could take a break, and a 300 pound Karen of a manager comes waddling out from the back room to tell me she was watching me on the cameras and she saw my break was 20 minutes instead of 15 so she is writing me up for being lazy.

Monitoring your subordinates on cameras is unjust and I won’t be a part of that.

After retirement this hit me like a brick. I figured I could do vocational certification and make a go of it. After 4 years of seeing low paychecks and nothing but jerks and elbows, back to school I went. Should have my BS next semester!

When I worked for the Postal Service, we had a collective meeting with management due to low staff morale and high sick leave because of mismanagement and refusal to listen to the reasons behind it. We were told that if you didn't like it, there's the door. Previously we had also discovered that nationally management were getting productivity bonuses based on worker output, and workers injured on the job were obliged to attend company affiliated doctors who were also getting bonuses to send workers back to work, regardless of if they were fit to return yet or not. Do you think the workers got any bonuses? I don't need to answer that, you know the answer already.

It was coming up to a busy period, so I planned my exit, waited until the start of the busy period, gave management immediate notice and left. Asswipes.

5 years later and in a much better place.

I was on the phone with a very angry client (biggest Karen in the world). She wasn’t even mad at me, she was furious about something my boss had done and I was asked to deal with it. Within the first five seconds of the call I was told by a colleague to hang up, but I didn’t. I tried to explain the problem to the lady and offer a solution. But she wouldn’t listen. I let her yell at me for about 20 minutes and once she had nothing else to say I said “okay, this conversation has come to an end. I hope you have a good afternoon.” and hung up the phone. I know it’s such a silly ‘story’ to tell but After that I feel like I can have a conversation with anyone on the phone (mind, I’m an introvert and that says A LOT) haha.

Towards the end of a 14 hour my VP went crazy on me because another guy lied. I retired 2 weeks later. I was 56.

Job deliberating keeping us short staffed on the notion that we will just do the work of 2 to 3 people. They blamed me for something out of my control while I was already too busy with other things and I just said the hell with this and quit the next day.

My Ring camera captured a homeless man taking a number 2 outside my doorstep.

Santa Ana doesn't need to go to H**l, it already is H**l.

I was walking in the woods with my sister and we walked in into some couple being intimate in the woods I was 12 and she was 7 so I immediately covered her eyes an walked away, fast.

Company rewarding one set of employees and simultaneously degrading another set, all based on what leadership could get away with.

Girl I had feelings for turned me down and immediately told me that she slept with her coworker, then told me what it was like.

Mind you I'd known her for 5 years before that so she knew that would destroy me. So I immediately was like

"I'm never speaking to you again" and I meant it. It's been since 2012 lmao. She's doing horrible now I hear.

Started a job for someone in Australia when I was traveling, all going well and I was really enjoying it. One morning we had to start early so met at around 5am in the warehouse, I needed a coffee and asked if anyone wanted one too, they all said no. Went off and got my self a cup of Joe, came back and they were smoking illegal stuff.

Gotta love those bogans.

I was at someone's apartment that I didn't really know during college smoking and probably the highest I've ever been. All of a sudden there's several cop cars right outside with the sirens and lights going along with fire and ambulance doing the same. My brain convinced me they were there for me so I ran out of the apartment and home as fast as I could. They were really there for a dude that freaked out then had a medical emergency .

I don't know about brutal but I was about 16 and a guy in his 20s wanted to "date" me and I was too naïve to realise that's completely inappropriate and creepy and gross. So I said yes to a date. We went to the movies and he kept kissing and touching me. I got super uncomfortable and finally decided I shouldn't be putting up with this, so I made an excuse about needing to be at my sister's dance recital and fled the cinema. Later when I told my mother I expected to be scolded for rudeness. Instead, she said I was very brave and did the right thing. I blocked the guy and never saw him again. Years later I looked back and realised holy heck, how did I have no idea I was being groomed?

10 hour shift with two breaks and a lunch. (Mandatory Overtime).

My mom started doing intimate things alone loudly and here's the kicker, she didn't even thing about closing her door, she would only close her door when my grandma (her mom) was home.

I couldn't leave cus It was 1:30AM when she did it (I would normally be up at this time watching video's in bed) and I could not go downstairs because my dad was still awake.

she was doing this for a month strait starting at 1:30 - 3:00 AM, sometimes my dad would try to go to sleep early and ketch me watching video's on my tablet, and we would complain about her activities.

I think she still does this to this day and thank god I cant hear her now.
