Andy: You quit your job?! Are you insane?? Roger: Andy, it was my job that was insane! I've been giving old man Pembrook 10 hours of my life for every two or three I give my family! That's nuts! And I told him that, too! I can't wait to hear the kids' reaction when I tell them how much more time we'll have together. Jason, Paige, and Peter: You quit your job?? Are you insane?? Roger: Who's up for a game of freeze tag?!

Everyone’s dream… or at least mine. I also agree that it’s insane to spend so much time at work, but not with the people who really matter to you.

I’d like to win even a small lottery, so I could take a boom box into work, plug in Johnny Paycheck, and blast “Take This Job and Shove It” as I take off my uniform and throw it at my supervisor. I loved the military, but after retiring, I hate civilian jobs.

The kids may not be crazy about the whole idea, but Roger has his priorities straight anyway.

Amen. Now all he has to do is figure out how to monetize them.

Every day I jump out of be and yell ” I WONDER WHAT’S HAPPENING AT WORK TODAY’ Then I skip down the lane with a smile on my face and a song in my heart to see my loving co-workers and understanding supervisors who RECOGNIZE ACKNOWLEDGE and REWARD my every effort..

Lewreader I wish I had your type of supervisior. I work pt and where I’m at if anyone quits no big deal just bring on someone else. If I think I did something great boss just give a small praise. If the Admin Assist does something great high praise. For I know paper work never ends. I came up with a different time saver and how to cut back on paper idea and I didn’t get reconized for it. The Admin started to take credit by reporting it and I told the boss I’m the one who came up with the idea. Passing the middle person. Escan direct to another internet then they have to print up and delete.

Roger I agree with your family and you can’t draw unemployment either. Just becasue Jason got hurt you didn’t need to quit your job.

“The conclusion is inescapable: if productivity means anything at all, a worker [in the year 2000] should be able to earn the same standard of living as a 1950 worker in only 11 hours per week.” –Dr. Erik Rauch

my lottery winner fantasies did not include quitting my job– and i would have had a lot of fun before they fired me.
