My ex-wife was like this. Making snap decisions without planning 5 minutes ahead. She did this exact thing one time. Got a job at a gluten-free bakery. They told her she needs to wear a hat or hairnet, and would need to remove her long nails per local health code. She said no, and quit. Mind you, this was her first job in 6 months while I was supporting the household alone. She told me this was a boundary she had. Biggest. Bullshit. I've. Ever. Heard.

Ok food safety is a little different than degrading behavior.

I think he's saying her behavior was bs, not the other stuff

Not sure why you're being downvoted, that's definitely something I'd divorce for unless something changed.

In my mind it was more like, if you have the means (not necessarily by becoming a burden on someone else, but perhaps you have a few months of savings you can live off of) then sticking it to your arsehole boss (which I thankfully do not have) by just scampering, must feel pretty good.
