Take This Job and Shove It: Difference between revisions

Maybe it's a [[Dangerous Workplace]] they're employed to. Maybe they're working for [[Incompetence, Inc.]]., Veryand very possibly, there's [[No Such Thing as HR]]. Perhaps they have perpetual [[George Jetson Job Security|insecurity about how safe their job is,]], and it's not helped by the [[Bad Boss|overbearing supervisor or office manager they've got.]] Maybe they just recently got [[Promoted to Scapegoat]] or have to put up with an [[Stupid Boss|incompetent boss.]]. It could be that they're the [[Beleaguered Assistant]], or the [[Only Sane Employee]] in an office populated by those who should rightly be certified insane. Or, chances are good they've been subjected to the [[Delegation Relay]] one time too many. Or perhaps the boss is a [[Corrupt Corporate Executive]] and the character's morals can't allow them to stick around that kind of environment.

The reasons vary, but the result is the same. [[The Resenter|Resentment]] builds...TranquilFury [[Tranquil Fury]] is fostered... and then [[Beware the Nice Ones|the character's patience goes]] [[Wafer-Thin Mint|flying out the window.]].

Depending on the situation and the person who delivers the line or its equivalents, it can be a [[Crowning Moment of Awesome]], even more so if [[Jerkass|the recipient]] [[Asshole Victim|thoroughly deserved it.]]. Bonus points if the employer/supervisor is [["Well Done, Son" Guy|a parent or relative]] or [[What the Hell, Hero?|somebody who's SUPPOSED to be a good guy.]]
