From an external point of view it seems the bad egg lost his job and removed himself while giving a "final rant". Knowing years of emu drama I know it won't be his last words as he states.
It's already bad losing a job but seriously, 10 years as a receptionist/waiter? And at 41? Destiny removed from your comfort zone so finally you can grow to something better. Now it's up to you going for the better or being slaved in another so-so job for another 20 years without chance of improving like your last job. Bad news isn't always bad.
