Sounds fine. Why are you doubting it?

I'm not doubting it, just checking as I've never resigned before.

I wrote something similar. Seems fine to me.

Oh I see :) It's absolutely fine

Thank you both.

Perfect. So good I'm going to plagiarise.

Be my guest.

I have a fantasy alternative, I promise you

Ha ha, I love that kind of fantasy.

Jean, I have been reading your other threads and as someone else who has handed in their own notice with no job to go to, my own letter was very similar. Wishing you and ninah well

Oh thanks for that. How did it all work out for you?

yeah, thanks also
Jean you can't wait, now, can you?

God no, will be gutted if my boss cancels his visit or is ill!

It looks fine to me, too.

I've written my "honest" resignation letter before, but I don't think I could actually use it! It was very cathartic, though.

Ha ha, please feel free to give us the highlights!

How did it all work out for you?

I'll let you know Currently working my notice, thankfully only six weeks (four remaining)
I still wake up in the night wondering what on earth I've done but I truly believe this will be the right decision for me.

Good for you.

Be good to see you on my other thread, there's lots of support and inspiration on there.

They had a stress survey at work recently. Some of it did feature (in slightly less sweary language) in the "additional comments" section at the end.

Oh so you're still there then, sorry to hear that, I assumed you were referring to a previous role.

No, current position. I feel very split about it. I really want to work for the company, because I believe in what they're trying to do at the moment, but the management in the department is frankly shit. I did go for an interview last year, but didn't get it. But it helps my sanity to write my fantasy resignation from time to time.

How frustrating for you. Keep an eye out for other jobs and pray for a change in management!
