A resignation letter
This is a ‘dream’ resignation letter a friend of mine has written in anticipation of resigning from her company… Makes good reading..:-)
Dear All
Time has moved and so must we!
It is with this pleasant thought that I would like to inform you that I have decided to move out of K-company and move into avenues which would give me more scope to learn and grow. In my brief stint at K-company, I have mentally degenerated till my brain has poured itself out of my ears and fallen to the ground like amoeba and people have walked all over it and squished and squashed it till it disappeared and merely blobs of it were left lying on the road for stray dogs to lick. I have as a result become brain- dead and incapable of thinking or behaving like any prudent person would.
K-company has however given me great things too. It gave me a chance to make great friends and interact with people with similar inclination and talents like mine, who have enriched my life and motivated me at every juncture. A rarity, I must say, cuz ‘Gems’ like me are indeed hard to find in this unscrupulous and lackadaisical world. I would specially like to thank Shamitha and Sid for this. With them I learnt what working hard truly means and how it always reaps results. They taught me the importance of maintaining excellent rapoort with all my colleagues( like Asha,Rajesh and Paddy) and to respect, follow and blossom under the leadership of eminent and prominent personalities like Mr. Murthi, Mr. Himesh and Mr. Sheyas ( fondly remembered as telco MT, hippo and bull dog). For this I shall always be grateful. More than that, I discovered with them every single gigantic, not so gigantic, quaint, shady( sometimes not so shady) hang-out in the city where we could fruitfully pass time brain-storming about our business ventures, discussing politics, the economy and sometimes matters of phenomenal importance. I am sure those places in years to come will be remembered as spots where the greatest inventions and business plans were discussed by the ‘three great Maestros’.
Last but not the least I would like to thank all the staff and managers of Kafeoke, Anokhee, Coffee world, Barista, Amethyst, Pepper and theosophical society for housing us there during all those afternoons where we would sprawl on their couches and hog on their food. Without those guys this year would not have been possible. They are the guys who made the difference and are the real Heroes. A big THANK YOU to them.
I know it must be really tough on K-company to let a star performer like me leave but sometimes you have to let your loved one’s go for their better good. I had come to K-company on a mission and I think I have succeeded in my target of a 30% fall in K-company share prices. I am sure you would understand when I say there are a lot more companies in the country where my valuable contribution is required . Quoting Robert frost “.. I have promises to keep , and miles to go before I can sleep”. I do, however, have one suggestion for the senior management of K-company. If you want K-company to progess as much as it has in the last few months, Gtalk should not be blocked and it would hinder ‘hidden’ Ajays, Shamithas and Sids from realizing their full potential and God would never forgive you for that. So let your conscience rise and help humanity. I thus conclude “ Unblock Gtalk, unblock roads to progress”
I thus bid adieu to all of you. Please take care of Ajay and Mohan for me.
I sincerely hope our association shall stand the tests of time.
Thank you all,
Frustrated soul
Best MT and Star Perfomer.
