Brad Klausen "Doc On LSD" Print Give Away

So this week I was laid off from my job (I didn't create this thread for sympathy, I'm confident I'll find a new one shortly) but on my way out I brought something with me 
A few years back I was responsible for set dressing a show I was working on. It was a sports show and I had reached out to a few artists for garbage/damaged prints to see if they would donate anything instead of throwing it in the trash. Brad was extremely kind and sent me one of his Doc prints. He said it was damaged...I say t's fine. Other than a slight ink mark, the thing is a beaut.
The print hung in the office for two years, made its way into a few videos we shot but on Tuesday when I was told to gather my belongings, I took it with me...not because I wanted it for my house but just out of spite.
Anyways, if you want this print, it's yours. All you have to tell me is how you'd quit your job if you had the chance.
I'll let this go until next Friday Afternoon. (March 23rd 6pm ET)
Make me laugh/cringe/whatever. Best one wins. Good luck.

but that would be if I only hit the lottery
I'd probably go to a board meeting...Which I have been told I am not allowed at. And I would tell them about all the money my boss wastes on shit he shouldn't be buying to begin with. Then I'd tell them that they should start investing in their employees instead of their comfort! Good luck on the job hunt! Thanks for the shot!
If I were to quit my job, I would drop some heat in my bosses toilet tank. A nice upper decker..That shit would get all churned up for a week before he realized its on the freshwater side! Oh, wait...that's why I got fired! I don't quit anything!

When I left his office, i walked through the dining room and all the customers looked mortified. I was never sure if it was what we screamed at each other or the thought that they might be eating recycled salad dressing
not really a shining example for others, but the guy had it out for me from the very first day we met. in his 3 years of running this business, he has yet to fire another individual, whilst i was gone in his first 9 months on the job...
being laid off sucks for sure Dead Man, and i don't mean to belittle your situation. i laugh at myself to this day about what happened to me. thanks for the opportunity, cool idea! and good luck to all!!

picture this type of desk:
when i quit i am going to take the metal cover off of the tower on his desktop computer. im going to take a shit in it and than screw the cover back on. the tower is located under his desk, so that little cooler fan in the back of the computer will blow the shit smell all over his lap for days/weeks. since the front of the desk is covered, the smell can only go out towards him
had a job i hated and got a new job lined up. went into the bosses office and told him i quit. he asked when my last day was i said right now. the vain in his neck would flair up when he got mad and it was already bulging lol. he told me i just can't quit like this so i had to remind him that he was the reason i was quitting like this. yes it was HIS fault...... for some reason he didn't like that one.
that was a good day! good luck with the job search
Anyway, I would tell him " no matter how much of the ladder he climbs, he will always be the short kid in school that never got picked in gym, never had a date for prom, had zero friends... And it's not because of your size, it's because your an asshole!!!!!!! ".

Then I would unroll this poster I just won and show it to the police and as the song Out Of My Mind is blasting in the back round I would say to the officer " Can you believe this poster is about a professional ball player who pitched a No Hitter while on LSD :P "
I'd make it known that it was as much their fault and loss in my departure, as it was mine in losing the job.
Sorry to hear about your job, I hope everything works out for you. Good luck!

And we're drowning.'
Will prob bring in a Boom Box and once I get to my desk just start playing some Dirty Frank to get the mood set for everyone that this is how it is about to go down.
Once the mood is set, I will settle in and wait for HR to ask to meet with me, during my meeting with HR I will start letting out all of my bosses little white lies he spreads to keep other team members and co-workers happy, these will also get sent out in a mass e-mail from my cell phone - Pre-Drafted. After I am told I am being let go, I am sure I will be asked to pack my belongings.
On my way back to my desk, I will fire up the Boom Box again and start playing Once, 2 reasons for this, Once apon a time, I could control myself... :twisted: And the second reason, give my old co-workers a story for them to tell new employees by saying, Once there was this employee here and how he left...
After the desk is packed up, call myself a cab, then play my final going away song, Rearview Mirror... Fire up a cig in the office... then tell the taxi drive to take me to a bar...
Nothing to over the top... but I will not be forgotten for my departure.
Good Luck to All, and thanks for the chance.
Wally.
Boom. Winner. PM me your deets. Thanks everyone for participating. Interview number 3 coming up tomorrow. Fingers crossed.
