short and sweet.

Good.

 

[JSt0rm]

On Second thought I would change the Sincerely to a "Best Regards"

I always get a fuck you from "Best Regards" in the right situation.

 

[DaveSimmons]

Seems fine. Keep in mind they may escort you out the door as soon as you hand it in, and remember not to say anything negative if they ask for an exit interview.

 

[Ichinisan]

:thumbsup:

Good luck with the new opportunity.

...but lose the double-space there.

 

[zinfamous]

There is only one space between your first and second sentences. For shame, alkemyst.

 

[zinfamous]

...but lose the double-space there.

wait, I see one space?

:hmm:

Oh, he changed it in the OP.

View page source. There are two, but HTML eliminates unnecessary whitespace.

No...thanks for employing me?

Good.

real input: this.

don't forget to poop on the boss's desk before you leave, though.

 

[Gigantopithecus]

Why use three sentences when you can use one?

Dear XXXX,
Please consider this letter your formal notification that my last day of employment at XXXX will be March 11th, 2011.
Thank you,
Alkemyst

No matter how shitty a job was, you should thank them when you leave. It's classy, and doesn't burn bridges.

Oh, haha. Had no idea.

 

[OVerLoRDI]

Will your new job prevent you from neffing?

 

[alkemyst]

Seems fine. Keep in mind they may escort you out the door as soon as you hand it in, and remember not to say anything negative if they ask for an exit interview.

I know this may be my last day. I am not going to agree to any signing papers or exit interview unless they compensate me.

All they need is this.

View page source. There are two, but HTML eliminates unnecessary whitespace.

It also eliminates essential white space such as one of the two appropriate spaces between sentences. Hopefully the next standards update will address this poor behavior.

I put a reason in to prevent talking more about it.

1) don't want to explain it.

2) it's not a happy leave. I don't want to thank them for anything.

3) I have given them every opportunity to correct this, and could not stop taking better offers to jump ship. I should have done this 3+ years ago.

It's my last possible day. I could work up to it or not.

Much more level headed that mine will be. Then again the last 3 or 4 VP's the have left dropped the F-bomb on the owner on their way out.

verbal is not equal to what you put in writing.
