Trashing Your Boss's Office While Popping Champagne Bottles And Posting It All On Instagram Is A Hell Of A Way To Quit Your Job
NY Post- An irate sell-side analyst appears to have chosen a memorable way to resign — by uncorking a champagne bottle and spraying it around his boss’s office and then pouring the bubbly on the floor around the rest of the office. A video of the after-hours rampage was posted to an Instagram account belonging to Francesco Pellegrino, formerly of Sidoti & Co.
Anybody that has ever worked even one day in a job they hated has dreamed of this scenario. Not only sticking it to The Man, but putting your thumb in his eye on your way out the door with a fire soundtrack. Jeezy, Yeezy and A$AP Rocky got us hyped, Marky Mark and Whitney took us wayyyy back, and no quitting video full of spite and scorn would be complete without some Ether sprinkled on top. Hopefully this playlist has been uploaded to Spotify for anyone else looking to quit their job and destroy any chance they have of getting another job in the same industry.
I’ll admit that this video briefly went to another level in my eyes when I thought Frenchy was pissing on name plates.
Instead it turned out to be champagne and we found out that he was wearing sandals during this meltdown. Sad!
And in case the sandals weren’t bad enough, this outright triggered me.
Yes, I know I share an office with a couple of guys that have killed their fair share of aquatic animals. But those deaths occurred because of occasional negligence and/or stupidity, not because they threw cans of booze in the tank (okay, maybe the poured some beer and spit some chaw and did a bunch of other shit to Larry, but that only made him grittier and a better gambler). But still, don’t take it out on the innocent fish while also leaving behind your mark like the Wet Bandits and taking away any chance that you can say this wasn’t you and your Insta was hacked.
In one vignette, a can of White Claw spiked seltzer is seen at the bottom of an office fish tank. Pellegrino calls himself the “White Claw King of NYC” on his Instagram profile.
A guy that works in finance calling himself the White Claw King of NYC unironically? *douche chills run through body*
Oh wow, destroying computers? This guy really wants to watch the world burn!
Peter Sidoti? More like Peter Sidiot, amirite?!?
Then again, if you drop a line like “May the bridges I burn light the way” while uploading everything onto your personal Instagram, you probably don’t care all that much. Or maybe you care at least a little bit.
Attempts to reach the analyst on Monday were not successful. His Instagram account on Monday was deactivated.
So what could possibly cause this type of anger and frustration?
It was not clear what sparked Pellegrino’s rampaging anger. A source close to the firm said Pellegrino felt he was underpaid.
Wait. The guy that was popping bottles of champagne in his boss’s office feels like he wasn’t being compensated enough?
No matter how long this video will have Frenchy Pellegrino working fast food jobs at restaurants that didn’t Google his name before hiring him, this response by Peter Sidoti hopefully makes it all worth it.
When asked by The Post about the trashing of the office, Sidoti said, “I don’t even know how to respond,” before hanging up the phone.
Trashing your ex-boss’s office for a great Instagram Story: Your salary, your bonus, and 4 bottles of champagne
Leaving your ex-boss speechless when asked for comment by the New York Post about said Instagram Story: Priceless
And a word to the wise in case there are any jaded Barstool employees out there. If you pull a move like this on Portnoy, I’m pretty sure he will go Terry Benedict on your ass. He’ll come for you and then bankrupt your brother-in-law’s tractor dealership while also putting multiple bottles of champagne on ice so he can pop them every time a lowlight happens in your life.
