dear sir,
i am offering my resignation as operations manager of the xxx plant, effective may 15. as of now, i’m not quite sure where i’ll be looking for employment and am toying with the idea of turning one of my life-long hobbies into a profit-making enterprise.
frankly, vernon, i was deeply disappointed the vacancy of general manager was filled by someone from outside the company. through years of excellent performance appraisals, i was led to believe i was in line for that position. under the circumstances, i think you’ll understand my decision to resign.
i do appreciate the management training i’ve been given here; it has indeed prepared me well for almost any general business career i decide to pursue. my best wishes for the company’s continued growth.
sincerely,

dear mr,
please accept my resignation as associate chemist at the gert institute. i plan to leave my job here on september 30, 19–, taking a few days of annual leave just prior to that effective date. as you know, my primary interest has been in the oil and gas industry. therefore, i’ve accepted a position with fury refining, inc., that should put me back in touch with my “first love.”although i’m eager to accept the challenges in this new position, i regret leaving the institute. you and the organization as a whole have treated me very well over the past three years. i won’t forget the friendship and professional growth i’ve experienced as an employee here. best wishes to all of you for years of expansion here.
sincerely,
