If you think you've heard it all when it comes to throwing in the towel at work, then think again. A nurse just delivered a pretty cake with the words 'I quit' written in frostings to her boss.
Sarah Childers, a nurse in Lakewood, Washington said the delicious, if unorthodox, resignation notice is her way of giving her employers a piece of her mind, even as she gives them a piece of cake.
Childers said the seven months she spent working at the Western State Hospital left a sour taste in her mouth.
“It could do so much good, and it’s just one of the worst places right now,” she told KOMO-TV.
Childers said the pay is low, the hours are long and hospital staff aren’t given enough training. She also said management spends too much time writing up employees’ mistakes and handing out punishments.
“How do we control the population with such little staff and so many patients?” she told the station. “You can’t have individualized treatment that way.”
