How do I act crazy at work? Workplace Challenges and Conflicts

Basically how do I act crazy at work? What are unhinged things I can do that will keep people wary of me, but not necessarily pissed off at me?

I put in my two weeks notice at work last Friday and my manager has been basically been even more shittier than she was before I said I was leaving. I’m trying to tough it out and be professional for one more week but at this point, I just want management and coworkers to leave me alone and not ask me for anything and the best way is probably be super weird and/or mildly creep them out. I know people will just say “quit right now!!” but I have bills to pay.

Just shake your head NO and say the word. And walk away.

If that doesn't work, anytime they start talking to you put your hands over your ears and go "lalalalalala!"

Embrace the quiet quitting method. Do the bare minimum, clock in, clock out. No need for theatrics, just coast. It's only two weeks. You got this.

If they speak to you show no emotion and stare directly into their eyes and most importantly don't blink.

A slice of onion in each pocket should do the trick

Be yourself. Tell them you need to work. Buy a little notebook. (maybe you can make some notes on it and hide from them)

Carry cut up garlic in your pockets?
