My resignation

notes

I was going through my documents and I found this one. This is my resignation letter when I left Royal Mail and now that I have a new blog, I thought about publishing again… and again :-) … I can say I am a bit proud of it and it has been an example for future references when I work in a new place or I leave it.

Dear Manager,

My name is Jonay Pelluz, my pay number is XXX/XXXXX and I have been in Royal Mail working, or what it’s really true, trying to look busy when the manager is around, for more than 3 years and when I think about this I am surprised I didn’t leave before.

I am writing this letter because I want to resign of my job the date 8th September of 2006.

I suppose at this point of the letter you are thinking why?

I resign because the job is affecting my health, I am going back to Spain, it’s deeply boring and I am sick of it.

Although, to be honest, I resign because I miss:

The Spanish Tapas,

The Spanish Tortilla,

The Galician Octopus,

The Spanish Ham(onsito),

The Spanish Sun,

My girlfriend,

To have a night out until 8 o’clock in the morning,

And more things that I don’t write because I don’t think you are interested about them.

In the other hand I have to say, I will miss:

The English beer,

The English barbecues,

The English breakfast,

The English humour,

All my friends in the Post Office,

And my flatmates.

So, take care.

Signed,

Jonay Pelluz,

29th August 2006
