Walked out of work today because I could take working with a coworker anymore

Did your old boss quit because he had enough of the dancing employees too?

This guy plays music loud and today started singing a couple times loudly a couple feet from where I was working. And he randomly marks my time card without permission.

This is a temp job I took to make a bit of extra money in my down season, as I am self employed and didn't want to do nothing when I had a lot of down time.

This guy runs to his phone every 15 mins to set up new songs to play, dances and just does various nonsense things I don't want to go one to list.

I walked out early today, marked may card, took my things, messaged the employment agency about their if there is a policy on coworkers marking other employees time cards without permission and if there were any other jobs they could send me to.

I just haven't given the final, "I quit" notice. Just wondering what I should say about this jack ass I work with. I'm not desperate for a job, so can't put up with this kind of environment. But I don't want to burn bridges with the employer or agency, not that that matters to me all that much.

I'm afraid that you need to develop a thicker skin. If getting the job done was the whole job, working would be easy. The rest of the job is putting up with the BS of those around you.

Ya, I agree to a point. But I weigh that with how I value the job and the likelihood of another job having the same issue. I've had several jobs and all others didn't have someone like that working there and without supervision to deal with it.

All said and done, I'm glad I left that job. I've found other opportunities.

I ended up getting a second interview early last week and they said that they like what they hear and see and think I'm a good fit, but the business doesn't open for a month. Same day, I had a first interview at another business. I got hired on the spot. These are just jobs. I have a business I'm working on also, which is my long term goal. I just want some guaranteed income as I work on the business.
