FAQ
A: Washington's at-will employment doctrine means that employers can fire employees at any time, for any reason, without needing to provide justification. Similarly, employees can leave their jobs at any time without giving notice.

Washington is an at-will employment state, which means that employers can fire employees for any reason or no reason at all, as long as they are not violating any employment laws. This also means that employees can resign from their jobs at any time, for any reason or no reason at all.

You don't need to specify your reasons. Simply stating that you're leaving for personal reasons is enough. If you are still iffy about it, then… Simply write that you're leaving for “personal reasons” after stating your intent to resign and your last day of employment with the company.
You can resign for any reason you like, and you are under no obligation to disclose the reason.
Complete the Heading. Write a Formal Salutation. Make a Statement of Resignation. State Your Last Day of Employment. Mention You're Resigning Due to Personal Reasons. Show Your Gratitude to the Company. Personalize Your Letter. Highlight the Next Steps.
It's acceptable to say you're resigning “for personal reasons.” A few words of thanks — Even the most trying jobs have their bright spots. While gratitude isn't mandatory, this is an excellent time to take the high road and extend a thank-you to the organization.
