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!

"I think you're trying to run me on the slide WELL THATS NOT GONNA HAPPEN"

Activated the Slide 

Idiom. The act of quitting your job in a fit of reckless fury, perhaps justified, but still hasty in nature. Origin: JetBlue Flight attendant Steven Slater, early 21st c., August 9-10, 2010. cf. "jumping the shark"; 20th c. "postal".
USA Today: "As the plane was landing, Slater got on the public-address system and cussed at the passenger, the Port Authority said. He then grabbed at least one beer, activated the slide, slid down and went to his car, it said."
