Did you tell them you were leaving or did you just stop coming?

Have you ever quit a job after the first day? |

not quite the same, but my sister and I got jobs at the same place, then she got a different job and left it to me to tell them she was never starting. Not
fun.

No but I worked in a factory last summer and we used to bet on how many of the "new people" would walk into the department and turn around a walk out
A lot of them had trouble with the smell |

I worked at the Gap for one day and called them the next day to tell them it wasn't a job for me.

I haven't, but I would. I wouldn't tell them...I'd probably just leave and never come back.

I've only had two jobs in my life -- first one lasted 3 1/2 years, current one has been 4 1/2 years.

I quit Toys R Us after my second day, I had been offered something better after I had accepted and decided to go there instead. I couldn't be happier now.

No, but we've had people do that where I work.
We had one girl who "left her cell phone in her car" and went out and never returned. |

Yep. I quit Bennigan's after two shifts. On my second day (the first day was just stupid videos) they had me at the hostess stand by myself and it was a
Saturday night. I had no training and no previous experience, it was ridiculous. I need a job that actually wants to help me do well and teach me, thanks!

When I was working for a hospital a long time ago (when I was 16), I quit after the first day. I was suppose to be an administrative assistant for an
out-patient floor, but they had me organizing paper clips in order of size for hours.
I also had to organize 5000 folders in order of color. It was
mind-numbing. During my lunch break, I got on a bus home. I worked for the worse possible hospital, it had the worst reputation, and people quit their
jobs there left and right. I was their 16th administrative assistant in two months.

Yep, I was a knives salesman I couldn't convince myself that I wanted to sell their bullshit product to others. I gave back their merchandise, made up an
excuse and left.

Yep. I worked at a dog kennel and witnessed the owner beating several of the dogs, causing one to bleed and part of his insides to fall out of a wound under
his stomach (a basset hound). I walked out and told him I was never coming back, and would tell everyone I knew about what he did.
