Work through this to-do list:

• [ ] Why am I quitting?

• [ ] Why do I want them to think I'm quitting?

• [ ] Do I want to keep any of these people in my life?

• [ ] This is the appropriate person to contact and their contact information:

• [ ] Is my resignation effective immediately or am I committing to two more weeks here?

• [ ] I understand that these templates are for a true resignation and NOT a bargaining chip. I'm leaving. Today's the day.

Choose the template that best suits your situation:

• I loved working here! On the whole it was a positive experience and I'm very sad to not interact with them professionally anymore.
• Eh. I'll forget about this job. There was good, there was bad. It wasn't important to my professional career, but I'll leave on a high note just in case a bigger position opens up someday.
• The people who work here are incompetent and I want to talk about that. I don't need this job or these people.
• When I'm 100, and anyone asks me what the best day of my life was, I'll tell them about the day that I finally swam out of the cesspool that is this "professional environment." I'd rather choke on an engorged zit than come back here.
