What do you think about this resignation letter ?

Instead of saying, "I have been presented a rewarding opportunity."\n\nI suggest saying, "I enjoyed my time with XXX and wish you continued success in the future."\n\nThis sounds a lot more positive, and it could lead into a good letter of reference if you need/want one.\n\nYou can also include something along the lines of, "I hope that two weeks will give you sufficient time to find a replacement; please let me know if I can assist with training or orientation for the new employee."

Simply say "I regret to inform you, but I must resign from my current position. My last day will be_____. I will gladly help with the pursuit and training of a replacement until that time. I appreciate the experience this firm has given me." It's usually best if you don't put a reason in writing, as it's your right to quit without cause....and anything you say will only annoy your boss, or get you in some kind of legal trouble. If asked, say you got a better offer, or say you were looking for something that provides more of a challenge. You may find your boss will give you a raise to keep you.

A very bold honest and straightforward letter.\nIt may not be possible to deny a word of it, hence USA will find it very difficult to respond.\nI liked it.

the last place i left, i wrote a letter that stated my real reasons for leaving. my boss cut my hours because i took vacation when it was "inconvienent for her" i had seniority over everyone including my boss. i felt i should have been able to take vacation when i wanted to. you should write the letter with the exact reasons for your leaving. maybe they don't know what's going on or why they can't keep help and maybe they'll realize the error of their ways if you let them know exactly why u are leaving.

When you write your resignation letter remember it may be read by future employers. Since your resignation letter will be the final document in your company's personnel file, it will be the first document seen when a future employer calls for a reference.\nKeep it short and sweet....Maintain a good relationship with your employer and associates, Show enthusiasm and appreciation for the work you have done, Emphasize what you have contributed, and Highlight your skills. By giving a well written resignation with sufficient notice will maintain your dignity and Keep doors open (don't burn bridges) if you decide to go back.....Also you might want to ask you supervisor or colleagues for letters of reference if you are leaving on good terms.....Good Luck with your new job!!!!

Yep.  I got this email today.  Sums it up nicely.\n\n"Recently large demonstrations have taken place across the country protesting the fact that Congress is finally addressing the issue of illegal immigration.  Certain people are angry that the U.S. might protect its own borders, might make it harder to sneak into this country and, once here, to stay indefinitely.  Let me see if I correctly understand the thinking behind these protests.\n \nLet's say I break into your house.  Let's say that when you discover me in your house, you insist that I leave.  But I say, "I've made all the beds and washed the dishes and did the laundry and swept the floors; I've done all the things you don't like to do.  I'm hard-working and honest (except for when I broke into your house)."\n \nAccording to the protesters, not only must you let me stay, you must add me to your family's insurance plan and provide other benefits to me and to my family (my husband will do your yard work because he too is hard-working and honest, except for that breaking in part).  If you try to call the police or force me out, I will call my friends who will picket your house carrying signs that proclaim my right to be there.  It's only fair, after all, because you have a nicer house than I do, and I'm just trying to better \nmyself.  I'm hard-working and honest . um, except for ... well, you know.\n \nAnd what a deal it is for me!!   I live in your house, contributing only a fraction of the cost of my keep, and there is nothing you can do about it without being accused of selfishness, prejudice and being anti-housebreaker.\n \nDid I miss anything?  Does this sound reasonable to you?  If it does, grab a sign and go picket something.    If this sounds insane to you, call your senators and enlighten them because they are stumbling in the darkness right now and really need your help."\n \nLinda Myers\nApril 10, 2006 -  New-Sentinel

Hi Sam, \n\nI understand that your lecturer is quite 'kewl' and stuff, so I suggest you write it in a 'Semi-Formal' way. Did I confuse you? Let me explain...\nStart something like...\n\nDear Mr.XYZ, or Hi Mr.XYZ (Not the usual Respected Mr.XYZ)\n\nWrite the body of your letter in 3 paragraphs - Introduction, Explaination, and Conclusion, and requests, if any. \nBe sure to make him feel you have concern of his time by mentioning the subject. Again, I don't say you have to do it by putting a separate side-heading for it, like in formal letters, but try to include something like...'Well, I have to say you class was amazing today. I write ths letter to explain so and so.'..or something like that. That doesn't sound formal, does it? Ok... and when you finish with the three paragraphs, sign off in a kewl manner...like...\n'I hope I made my point. Will be very happy if you give me your opinions. Bye!!!' (We don't say bye in formal letters, do we?)\nSo, till then, this is Sam for you.\nHave A Nice Day.\n\nYours truly, \nSam    \n(or if you want it more casual, jus sign off saying 'Sam')\n\n\nHope this helps. If not, feel free to ask me to clarify a few more points. Bye Sam!!!\n\nrule wid style n luv@vinny

If you reeeally need this job, I'd go to the Labor Board. It sounds like A$Shole wanted to find a reason to get rid of you.  You might come out on top in this one, but even so, will your employers make your job a living hell by always looking for legal ways to fire you again and again? Just think it over.  "Choose your battles" was some of the best advice I ever got.

I would tell him exactly what you wrote here. It's difficult for both the person leaving and the people left behind. Just remember that sometimes you have to play the politcal game at work and you probably won't be able to say anything to upper mgmt about how you feel.

Man,\n\n\n.•    I am sure glad you are in office, making the decisions.\nI wouldn't want to be in your shoes, trying to please everyone.  It is an impossible job.  And by doing what you think is best for Americans and not bending to the whiners who would point fingers or complain, shows your character, even if some decisions are not the right ones.  At least your heart is in the right place.\n\n.•    I accept that you are also just one person, with a lot on your plate, and that you will NEVER be able to please everyone.  But your job is not a popularity contest, but a serious and difficult one.  Don't feel bad, because most of the people who do complain, are doing NOTHING to make this country better.\n\n.•    If by your actions, you have failed, that is better than doing nothing and failing, which many Americans are good at.

Dear, dear friends, who feel like a real family, I wish to express my deepest and sincerest appreciation for you being here for me during the last two years and making my life a most memorable, comfortable, and happiest time of my life.\n  As a result of your kindnesses, I hope to make someone else, some day,  feel as Special as you have made me feel.\n  As I leave you shortly, remember you'll always have a place in my heart, and I hope that we might stay in contact during the years to follow.  Thus, let us exchange addresses now to prepare for the happiness that we pray will be the content of our letters.

In your next letter add -how he is not (or has) representing you or the people you know. And he will not get your vote again unless he does. And mean it! \n\nOtherwise it is fine. Thanks for writing.

That is an appalling statement to make regardless of whether they were testing your response or not.\nI would definately write a letter of complaint and also be grateful that you didn't get the job. To hear it at an interview is one thing, but imagine getting the position and have to hear bigotted comments like that all the time.

It is always more appropriate to put such a thing in writing.  And don't forget to keep a copy for yourself, in case there is ever a question about you wrote.  I'm not sure if you're leaving happily or not, but remember it can be best to not burn bridges - at worst, keep the letter neutral and to the point (I hereby give my resignation, effective on -date- - sign and date it), and at best use it as an opportunity to let them know what you appreciated most about working there, what good things you'll walk away with.  \n\nYou really never know what doors this might re-open in the future somewhere, somehow.  Even if you don't plan on going back there, supervisors move on, too, and you never know where or how you'll run in to someone.  \n\nHey, good luck in whatever you're doing next.

Tell them if they only accept it after Thanksgiving, it will be a one week notice.  I've never heard of a boss doing that.  When IS a good time?  I mean, you never like to lose people but if they resign, you can't put it off by telling them 'now is not a good time'.  Sheesh.

Here are two great divroce letters. Read both to understand.\n\nDear Husband\n\n\n\nI'm writing you this letter to tell you that I'm leaving you for good.\nI've been a good woman to you for seven years and I have nothing to show\nfor it. These last two weeks have been hell. Your boss called to\ntell me that you had quit your job today and that was the last straw.\nLast week, you came home and didn't notice that I had gotten my hair and\nnails done, cooked your favorite meal and even wore a brand new\nnegligee. You came home and ate in two minutes, and went straight to\nsleep after watching the game. You don't tell me you love me anymore,\nyou don't touch me or anything; Either you're cheating or you don't love\nme anymore, whatever the case is, I'm gone!!\n\n\n\nP.S. If you're trying to find me, don't. Your BROTHER and I are moving\naway to West Virginia together! Have a great life!\n\n\n\nYour Ex-wife\n\n\n\n*************\n\n\n\nDear Ex-Wife\n\n\n\nNothing has made my day more than receiving your letter. It's true\nthat you and I have been married for seven years, although a good woman\nis a far cry from what you've been. I watch sports so much to try to\ndrown out your constant nagging. Too bad that doesn't work. I did\nnotice when you cut off all of your hair last week, the first thing that\ncame to mind was "You look just like a man!" My mother raised me to\nnot say anything if you can't say anything nice. When you cooked my\nfavorite meal, you must have gotten me confused with MY BROTHER, because\nI stopped eating pork seven years ago. I went to sleep on you when you\nhad on that new negligee because the price tag was still on it. I\nprayed that it was a coincidence that my brother had just borrowed fifty\ndollars from me that morning and your negligee was $49.99. After all\nof this, I still loved you and felt that we could work it out. So when\nI discovered that I had hit the lotto for ten million dollars, I quit my\njob and bought us two tickets to Jamaica. But when I got home you were\ngone. Everything happens for a reason I guess. I hope you have the\nfilling life you always wanted. My lawyer said with your letter that\nyou wrote, you won't get a dime from me. So take care.\n\n\n\nP.S. I don't know if I ever told you this but Carl, my brother was born\nCarla. I hope that's not a problem.
