Employee refuses to answer boss's text after resigning from their job via email, leaving boss in the dark about why they quit: ‘Now the company is calling me’

Some people draft a resignation letter to their boss every week, always on the verge of quitting and never looking back. I even know a few people who keep a physical resignation letter in their office desk drawer just in case they really can't take it anymore and have to get out of the office as soon as possible.

But how many people actually abruptly quit their jobs without so much as an explanation?

Becoming an adult often means owning up to your actions, and yes, even providing an explanation for your decisions from time to time. Sure, you can quit your job and ghost your boss until they leave you alone, but that is not really the "adult" way of handling things. If you want to quit, a conversation with your boss about it is the least you can do, even if you don't tell them exactly the reasoning behind the decision.
