10 things you should never say when leaving your job Don't bash your employer. Don't apologise. Don't give away too much. Don't make any promises. Don't sign anything. Don't tell them who knew. Don't say that you'll do an exit interview. Don't tell them how long you've been looking.
Resign in Person If it's possible, it's always better to resign in person rather than over the phone, or, worse still, via email. Schedule some time to speak with your manager so you can talk about your decision face-to-face. If you can't meet in person, schedule a video call instead.
Clearly state your intention to resign and your last working day. Express gratitude for the opportunities you had, without delving into the toxic aspects. Choose the Right Time and Place: Schedule a meeting with your manager to discuss your resignation. Ensure it's a private, calm setting.
Don't say (or to be correct: write) anything in a resignation letter that is negative about the company, its management or other employees, even if this is the reason you are leaving; and however temping it may be to momentarily make you feel better or empowered.
Dear Supervisor's Name, I am writing to inform you that I have decided to resign from my position as Job Title at Company Name. My last day of work will be Date. I want to take this opportunity to thank you and the entire team for the valuable experience and support provided during my time at Company Name.
State that you are resigning, and provide the effective date. Briefly cite personal reasons as the basis for your resignation, without elaborating further. Express gratitude for the opportunity to have worked there. Convey well-wishes for the company and your colleagues.
"Don't use words like quitting or leaving when you tell your boss you're resigning, because they could make your boss feel like it's their fault you're vacating your position. Similarly, avoid phrases like “I've found a better opportunity” or “I've outgrown my position." Instead, let them down easy."
So if you found yourself feeling apathetic towards showing up to work every day, consider these three red flags. You're not using the skills you were hired for. Your skills aren't being maintained. Your skills are lacking opportunity.
