resignation letter

It has been quite the stressful week. But to make a long story short I had two job offers and I have accepted one. I will give my notice tomorrow and when I get back from my European vacation I will have a new job! I start May 15^th. I am very excited. I can hardly believe I actually got a job. And they actually sounded excited to have me work there. I don’t know if I can really trust an organization that would put me in charge of anything. I figure even if the job ends up being completely terrible I wont have that figured out for at least another three months. I wonder what I will do with all the extra hours in the day I spent sending out resumes. I guess I can spend that time reading, paying bills, playing on the internet, and writing my friends emails…ya know all the stuff I do while I am at work. I can’t wait to give my resignation letter.

How about this:

To Whom It May Concern:

Please accept this letter as my formal notice of resignation. Effective 5/12/06. The associations I've made during my employment here will truly be memorable for years to come. I cannot imagine working at another place that would make me feel so worthless, expendable, and humiliated. I don’t think I will ever be able to forget the experience of getting yelled at by strangers and by people that I don’t even work for.

This firm will surely stand out in my mind in the years to come. I hope this notice is sufficient for you to find a replacement for me. Although it shouldn’t be too hard for you to find someone to sit and stare all day. I can’t imagine how I would be needed to train a replacement or tie up any loose ends so I think you should be good to go. In fact if you would prefer today can be my last day so let me know if that makes it easier for you. I’m outta here fuckers,

The only bad thing about working for a non-profit is I will feel guilty stealing office supplies. I suppose in the next week I should fill up on pens and notepads, not to mention those awesome mechanical pencils.

But I am happy to be starting a new chapter. Oh yeah thanks to everyone for listening to me bitch and moan all the time.
