5 Great Job Quitting Scenes

American Beauty 

As Lester Burnham (Kevin Spacey) boredly stats to his boss "For 22 years, I have been a whore for the advertising industry." But his exit is a masterclass is skillful blackmail and his ever increasing glee at the fantastic upper hand he holds over his smug boss, makes our hearts sing. This should serve as a prime example for anyone who has dreamed of going out will all guns blazing!



Wanted 

We have all had a boss like super bitch Janice, the kind who exploits the limited power she has over you to a level that borders on bullying! So when Wesley (James McAvoy) finally releases his pent up anger, he unleashes a speech that all of us have rehearsed in our minds over and over again! Also, he teaches us how a keyboard is a useful tool when dealing with any asshole 'best friend'




Fight Club 

 The Narrator (Edward Norton) sits down to what he hopes will be an formal job chat/extortion with his boss- but things don't go to plan he decides to get creative! What follows next is both a shocking yet awe-inspiring as his boss can only watch in horror as Ed beats himself to a pulp! Truly 'Jack's Smirking Revenge!'



Reality Bites

Out of all the job exits, Winona Ryder's one has to be the most original! Routinely belittled and insulted by self serving morning TV host Grant Grubler (John Mahoney), she decides to get revenge on him in the coldest way possible. Presenters take note, never mess with the intern who organizes your cards. You never know what they might decide to write down!



Jerry Maguire 

Sports agent Jerry Maguire (Tom Cruise) has recently had a crisis of conscience and it has resulted in him losing his clients and his job that he once held so dear. But as he departs, he makes sure that goes out in a desperate yet utterly rousing fashion (along with a Goldfish in a bag). He may make us squirm, but when that one person reaches out to him, our hearts soar!
