Haha! I would hate a "crappy" job that has anything to do with elephant poop. In all seriousness, great tips! These are very necessary and so many people don't really think much through it before they start talking to their boss about quitting. The advices about quitting are much better than the advices about blowing an interview. I think we all know how to blow an interview, but we definitely don't know how to quit gracefully.

I have quit very few jobs but always on bad terms as I always wait until its so bad I can't hold my tongue. This is a good video. I think it will help me in the future. Good ideas!! By the way, "Office Space" is one of my all-time favorite movies!

I have to say the tips are pretty useful if you actually want to quit with a smile and no added enemies in the process. You can quit with dignity and with a recommendation for the next job.
