Taking the slide

Exiting a job in a grand fashion, in a manner that conveys contempt for the industry one has left. Based on the flight attendant who told a plane of passengers where to go before opening the plane door, deploying the slide and jumping.

I'm not going to resign quietly. I'm totally taking the slide! I'm telling the whole boardroom off, then leaving with my middle finger in the air!

Take the slide

To abruptly and publicly end your association with something, usually a job or relationship. Derives from former JetBlue airline attendant Stephen Slater's flamboyant exit from the industry, when he cursed out a passenger, grabbed two beers from the galley, activated the emergency slide and exited the plane.

If that a-hole Hanrahan makes me redo that report again, I swear to God I'm going to trash this place and take the slide.

Jenny threw a fit and said I had to go with her to that lame-ass Hummel figurines convention in Tulsa again, so I just grabbed my jacket and my toaster oven and took the slide.
