“In this video, she once again wears a sash that unmistakably reads, ‘It’s my final day.’ This sash plays a pivotal role in an impressive collection of events during her time at her workplace in Bryan, Texas.

The video begins and ends with her expressing her sorrow about leaving her job and mentioning her upcoming move. She specifically says,

‘We’ll see how much money I can earn during my 14-hour shift today to cover the expenses of moving, as it’s quite costly.’

In the video, she acknowledges Darrell, a devoted Twin Peaks customer who has become a recurring figure in Linhart’s videos. Darrell stayed with her throughout her full 14-hour shift, which commenced at 10 a.m. and concluded at midnight.

Over the course of the shift, one customer brought her flowers, another gifted her a scratch-off lottery ticket, and two others purchased chicken sandwiches for her, knowing her strong preference for them.

Linhart also revealed that she exceeded the $2,000 mark in tips for the night, thanks to a generous $500 tip from one customer.

“Between sobs, she exclaims, ‘I received $1,264 in cash and $812 on my card, making it a total of $2,076.’

She concludes the video by expressing her gratitude to her loyal patrons, coworkers, and TikTok supporters. ‘I am incredibly, incredibly thankful for this job, and I will deeply miss it,’ she states.”

Throughout her shift, Avery was showered with gestures of appreciation and support from customers and co-workers alike.

“Darrell’s commitment to staying for your entire shift,” someone noted.

Linhart responded,

“He’s amazing, but I may have persuaded him a bit lol.”

Another commenter, in reference to Darrell’s dedication to Linhart, humorously remarked,

“It seems like Darrell is relocating too.”

Other viewers commented on the substantial earnings Linhart received.

“I don’t even make that much in a month as a teacher,” one person marveled.

Another individual said, “I never even earned half of that while working at Twin Peaks,” accompanied by a crying emoji and an expression of support, “Good for you, girl.”

A few others shared their enthusiasm for Linhart’s content, including one who remarked,

“I adore your channel so much. You’re like a real-life Disney princess.”

Embracing the Decision to Resign

Avery’s farewell video not only highlights the financial aspect of her last shift but also brings to light the emotional and relational dynamics inherent in the service industry.

The year 2020 redefined “work-life balance” with 42% of the U.S. labor force working from home full-time, according to the Stanford Institute for Economic Policy Research.

Particularly for working parents, the new normal has imposed the additional role of an educator into their routine. A survey by TopResume, conducted from August 28 to September 10, 2020, revealed that one in five working parents considered quitting their jobs to accommodate their children’s education amidst other reasons like health concerns, ineffective safety protocols, and a lack of empathy from employers.

If the contemplation of quitting your job intensifies, having a structured plan is essential to avoid financial and professional stress. It’s pivotal to ensure that your resume is updated and that you have considered all aspects of the decision, such as the impact on your daily life and financial stability.

When deciding to resign, communicating clearly and leaving gracefully is crucial to maintaining professional relationships. This involves providing a notice period, ideally two weeks, and ensuring that your departure does not create a void that hampers the workflow of your existing team.

It’s also vital to consider the implications of your departure on your lifestyle, financial stability, and professional growth, ensuring that the decision to quit aligns with your career and personal aspirations.
