we know the best way to quit a job and how to sleep at your job before you quit it let’s talk about that good mythical morning there are lots of questions out there existential questions questions about the meaning of life we’re not gonna get in any of those we’re just going to get into your questions that you asked us on Facebook for advice yes Aaron wynorski asks on the Facebook what is the best way to tell your boss that you quit now I quit well you could do that you could walk in and yell that just short and simple now it has become a thing a bit of a thing to quit via music video on the Internet not there is the the really popular one from you know late last year where the girl did the Kanye West song and then she quit her job to the tune of seventeen million views on this video now well yeah because I think it tapped into this satisfaction of I’m sticking it to the man on my way out I’ve been I’ve been having all that this bottled up resentment all of these years she catalogs it in the video and now it’s it’s sweet release and I think the follow-up to that story is as you can expect this girl ended up getting another job a pretty sweet job because it worked for her and I think my theory is that a lot of people have followed suit and tried to create their own I quit videos and let me just say that I don’t think that this is the best way to quit your job because it probably hasn’t worked for like 95% of people because when you quit your job it’s not about getting you know getting all your resentment out there and getting the last word with your boss it’s about the next job you got to be thinking about about your career not just your short-term satisfaction that’s what you’re saying right and so honestly I think the best thing to do is you sit down you have a face-to-face talk where you out you basically lay out all the reasons that you’re quitting with with the boss rid the boss face to face with the boss because what you’re trying to walk out of there with is an obligation that your boss will give you a recommendation for your next job you think I’m crazy it can happen and I guarantee you you increase your chances when you sit down to have a face-to-face rather than make an Internet using video now if you do make internet music video you’re probably gonna get more popular if you don’t like your boss chances are they don’t like you either so they’re gonna be happy when you come in there that way it’ll be happy to send you on your way what every everybody wins type of thing and then you can also say and I’m going to help you hire my replacement and then you can bring in a replacement from your pool of enemies it’s good to always keep a pool of enemies around that you can get to backfill the job that you hate that sounds a little spiteful it’s a different type of revenge Matt doofy oh says how can i and we know Matt thanks for asking the question Matt we go long time watcher along with Robin hello to the kids very early mythical beast how can I take a nap in my office but not let it look like I’m napping ah good question Matt I know you’re a you’re a smart guy who likes to work at a desk and like all humans likes to nap the answer is get a lay down desk that way you’ll always look like you’re napping even when you’re not – when you are people just assume all these working and you think I’m joking I’m serious get a lay down desk these things exist but you got to convince your boss that you have a reason for needing it because you can’t be like you know what I’ll take a light relax I think Billy I’ve got a psychologically I do better while laying down or something I got a back we got back problem I don’t want you to say you got back problems if you don’t I do I got back problems I might get a lay down that now back problems means you get a stand up desk I think what you do is you just you show your boss a picture of a lay down desk and then it’s pretty obvious that everyone in the office should have print out a picture of a lady on desk go into your boss’s office look him or her in the eye and just do this slide it across yeah and then they look at it say what you think about me getting one of these now ironically if you don’t fall asleep at your lay down desk your arms and hands will fall asleep so there’s a catch-22 there and word of warning when you do fall asleep when your boss walks in and wakes you up you have to be very practiced not to be alarmed and like to sit up really quick because you’re busy right into your computer right yeah I recommend sleeping on a top bunk that’s close to a ceiling and that’s good training for not popping up uninteresting a laid out den Broek Paul says I’m a security guard and have a simple problem I get so bored when we aren’t given anything to occupy us so we get my numbing Li board it’s to boards so board you wrote it twice okay the first question is how important is the thing that you’re securing if you’re securing like a nuclear reactor or like a newborn panda you know something that matters you should probably focus on securing that thing right yeah now if you’re like securing a country-club have at it your options are open and I think this is another what are they gonna do this goes steal the golf carts and drive them around till the batteries run out put a new hole in one of the greens or something who cares about that this is your opportunity to become an expert in something and I feel strongly about this you should read like crazy and I honestly think that you have the opportunity to change the perception of security guards everywhere so that when people see security guard on your resume they will give it equal weight to an Ivy League degree do you see what I’m saying here it’s like whoa look at this guy he was a security guard I bet you he’s an expert in something it sounds like you’re about to form like a security guard Union which may not be a bad I just having security guards advice become an expert on whatever it is that your heart desires that’s besides being a security guard but if you’re into that that’s great – it’s refreshing to have someone who loves what they do you know what day it is it’s Thursday and Thursday me me all right rhett and Link my lessee from Duluth Minnesota the male Boulder now actually talks to us yeah it makes some noise on it that spoke I think when it
