It was four years ago today that I resigned from my job at Visual Data [1] (who had bought the web design company I worked for a year previously) to start working at Eminet Domain [2] (which I worked at until mid-2000). I just found some draft resignation letters. The first one went:
Tuesday, July 28, 1998
To Whom It May Concern:
Due to the continuing product-aligned reorganization with significant third-wave solutions and the promise of integral new downsizing and nondiscriminatory divisional reshuffling I do hereby give notice that I intend to maximize my unrealized extensive expansion into humanistic revenue-oriented reimbursement into seamless middle-management reassessment and offer to Visual Data my voluntary revenue-oriented solution to the continuing unfulfilled financial promises by releaving you of the ongoing support of my employment at this institution within the coming fortnight.
Signed
Sean Conner > July 28, 1998
The other one I liked much better and actually wanted to use:
Tuesday, July 28, 1998
To Whom It May Concern:
Unappreciated and > with a heavy heart, > I hereby resign.
Signed
Sean Conner > July 28, 1998
but I was told to write something more traditional, but without the buzzwords of the first draft.
Ah well …
