Between the suppressed appetite and the anxiety-diarrhea, my recent goal of losing a pound a week has been succeeding beyond expectations!

My last day is scheduled for 1 month out, and I am absolutely willing to exercise my right to walk away on the spot, if the boss can't behave themselves; I'm not taking time to tidy up for *their* benefit.

That sounds like a horrible situation. Usually, in cases of abuse, leaving is sudden and needs to be so. Often, the abuser will try and prevent the victim from leaving.

This person is the living embodiment of "People don't quit jobs, they quit bosses."

Oh, they've tried. I laid down the law and have ignored all of their attempts. Things are quiet for the moment, and if they remain so, I should be fine. I'm still drawing pay, after all. But I will fuck RIGHT OFF if they start acting up again.

There are people who will be harmed if I nope out right away. I've set very clear boundaries, and right now, the boss is doing *okay*, but I will most definitely yank the Loud Handle if that changes.

do they REALIZE this, or are they just playing nice for the moment?

Probably both: I haven't yet threatened it, but they've had so much fucking turnover for so long, they can't NOT know that I'll do it.

Nah just leave. Any business that has a high turnover rate is not a place to work. Take a few people with you if you can.

It's very tempting.
