We've had several people quit this year. In fact, our turnover rate is on track to be the highest it's been in years. Here's one of my favorite ones thus far.
"Mike" started last November as a temporary. It's been back and forth for months if we were going to hire him, mostly because he wanted more money than what we typically pay someone in that job. Finally in August an agreement was reached, and he started as our employee. He went through new employee orientation in September, then quit with no notice the next week. He said he got a six figure job offer (WAY more than we were paying him, as in multiple times), and they wanted him to start immediately. His former supervisor was of course not pleased. I talked to one of his former coworkers who said "well, that's why he missed all those days. He was interviewing." I hadn't heard he'd missed several days, but since he was a temp, I likely wouldn't. I found the situation quite funny personally.
