or write you up or something similar, usually they want you to sign something too. And you didn't agree with it and you refused to sign or you quit on the spot? Has something like this ever happened to you?

I got wrote up once for not going to a meeting I was never informed about. So I signed it, crossed out the section that said reason: insubordination and wrote "missed meeting because you never told me it was happening."

Lady was a real dbag manager. The director ends up finding out and I get called to hr thinking I made it worse. But hr was like "this is to notify you that the write up was thrown away." About a year later thr manager was demoted and ended up quitting.

oh they found out you wrote that? good for you. Some bad retail management won't even do stuff when it is clearly wrong, won't change it

I did it once when the one manager didn't let me count my drawer before cashing out a customer who came in literally the moment we opened(mind you my in time was literally at opening time)

It ended up being short and I refused to sign the write up.

Ya, at my last job I called into the office for some real grade school shit.
I just sat their and let my manager give his speech, and really said next to nothing.
I had already checkout from there...but ya, it sucked.
Having said that, they lost 5 other people within the month....right before Track Season, and I was at a Wine Spirits store. So....Fuck them.

~So glad I got them through Covid. >___>

I did sign, which is a mistake.
But I was already checked out.
It became a dead end job when everyone got a 2% raise or some shit.
((Meanwhile 'Wine specialists' were spending 4hours having wine parties, as I am busting ass dealing with the people.)) Plus they watched us on camera to a creepy extent. I was done with the place.
So, I didn't argue anything, and they just took me off the schedule.

I did refuse to sign a paper when I was let go at The Casino.
I literally laughed at the PR Bro, and said, "I'm not signing that..."

Procedural stuff.
Most of these HR people and managers, don't know what they are doing, but feel landed.
So they just continue doing, what they think they are supposed to be doing, but not thinking for themselves at all.

It did feel nice laughing in the face of HR bro.
I took a huge pay cut, but that job was fucking up my life.

In the casino incident, yes, and the wine store, I think it was a mutual parting of ways.

I've had situations where I didn't agree, but I don't recall quitting a job on the spot or objecting. I usually just stick it out until they eventually fire me

I told you I laughed him.
I already knew my goose was cooked, and I had enough of that place.
The money was good, but the bullshit, and life-breaking overnights were killing me.
Also the Security Manager was there in the other room, and offered to let me get my stuff from my locker, but I opted out. I got along really well with security and service there. I was cold as shit and he's bald so, we broke up the conversation on the loading dock quickly. And then I drove off, and wondered wtf were those eight years about.

Almost. The boss couldn't find a pen with ink in it in his office and gave up rather than walk 20 seconds down the hallway to the office supplies room so I never signed it lmao

It wasn't that big of a deal. He probably didn't even want to do it. Order probably came from the CTO. Haven't had any problems at the company since.
