Word on the Street: What’s the first thing you do when you QUIT?

from Afternoons with Zweli on 947 · host 947

When a former UK Prime Minister made headlines for heading straight to the pub after resigning, it struck a massive chord worldwide! After all, who hasn't quit a job and immediately needed to blow off some serious steam? On this episode of Word on the Street, Zweli opens up the airwaves to ask the 947 family: What is the absolute first thing you did after quitting a job? The responses from Joburg listeners are an incredible mix of hilarious, inspiring, and downright outrageous! We hear from a former engineer who walked away from a toxic workplace to pursue acting, a woman who dumped her corporate ladder to open a bakery, and a listener who threw caution to the wind with a spontaneous bungee jump. But the ultimate shocker? One caller reveals how he kept driving a Mercedes-Benz dealership car for a full month after handing in his resignation! Whether you're planning your own dramatic exit, reminiscing about a past resignation, or just looking for a good laugh at the sheer madness of workplace exits, this episode is a must-listen.
