    Would you tell your boss you quit immediately? or would you keep it quiet and quit a few weeks later. I personally would tell my boss to shove it with immediate effect.:D

    I wouldn't have time to tell anyone because i would be busy sorting my flight out to bermuda. I'd be gone from this country in a shot.

    Yup, most people end up regretting winning the lottery. I'd keep it very, very quiet.

    Well, considering I am the boss...

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    I'd wouldn't to tell my boss cause I don't have a job anymore. The place were I worked shut down a few months ago, and due to the state of this country I haven't been able to find another job and I been on the dole since. If I won I'd pack my bags and get the hell out of the country, start a new life someplace else and never look back. :D

    I'd keep it quiet.

    I wouldn't tell my boss to shove it but I would probably quit nicely and go and pursue my dreams or something equally wishy-washy. I'd like to do something Warren Buffett style that would make a real difference in the world, and of course pay my parents back for everything they have done for me!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,641 ✭✭✭Teyla Emmagan


    I will let you all know my decision when I win the euromillions tonight!

    Is there really a way you could keep it a secret though? Surely the media would have you bombarded before you even got in the door to accept the check or whatever it is they give you.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,303 ✭✭✭Temptamperu


    I would get a tee-shirt made with "Fúck you I won the Muthafúcking lottery now suck my balls"
    And sit there all day smiling at him :cool:

    I frequently do! I'm a real rebel when it coms to that kind of thing.

    I might give myself a month or so off and then continue with my career, I'm only 23, too young to retire.
