I doubt if this former employee can count on a good reference from Bed Bath and Beyond
Most everyone has, at some point in their lives, fantasized about quitting their lousy, dead-end job with a profanity-laced farewell speech.But while most of us snap back to reality with a loud, “that’s a stupid idea,” a few actually follow through.
Case in point: This Bed, Bath, & Beyond employee who allegedly decided to announce that they were quitting via a price tag.
From far away, it doesn’t look like much:

But upon a closer inspection:

Yep, as you can clearly see, the tag reads:

THIS IS FOR FAT F___S [the full word has been considerately blurred out by our friends at the Consumerist (http://consumerist.com/2012/12/07/departing-bed-bath-beyond-employee-would-like-bosses-to-read-the-fine-print/)]
• Digital control panel
• MY BOSS IS A PR**K
• Comes with extender ring kit
• IM QUITTING TODAY
• 12.5″H x 15.5″W

Tell us how you really feel.

I have done MUCH worse than that, but still legal.

I don't burn my bridges ... never know when you might want to travel that road again.

Easy fix in a large organization: All you need are a couple of friends to be peer references. The rest can pound sand.
