Quitting on youtube
In 2013, Marina Shifrin, a young woman, made headlines by uploading a video of herself dancing alone in her vacant office in the early hours of 4 a.m. She used the video as a creative means to resign from her job, a move she didn’t anticipate would go viral, ultimately amassing more than 19 million views. Although the video was both comical and garnered substantial attention, Shifrin later expressed regrets about her decision.
On her LinkedIn profile, she advised against quitting in a dramatic fashion and instead encouraged individuals to resign from their positions in a respectful manner in order to secure new employment more swiftly.
