Ever left a job or group and wondered how to say goodbye without making things awkward?
"Burn bridges" means to damage a relationship so badly that you cannot go back.
Use it when someone quits rudely, insults people on the way out, or closes a door they may need later.
Sam says: "I'm leaving, but I'll thank everyone."
Alex says: "Good idea. Don't burn bridges."
Would you say this at work, with friends, or both?
