Letter of Resignation

To whom it may concern–

Please accept this letter as my formal notice of resignation from my position as paralegal at [company name redacted for privacy]. During my four years at this company, I’ve come to appreciate the gravity of my position, how we touch the lives of every client we assist, and learned the importance of attention to detail, reliability, responsibility, and integrity, all of which I will carry with me throughout my professional life. During my last two weeks, I will do everything I can to wrap up my duties and ease the transition of my departure. Please notify me of any way I can help. I wish continued success for [company] as I embark on the next step of my career.

Thank you, [name redacted for privacy]

Grievance letter

Excerpt of grievance letter concerning HR decisions from a career elementary school teacher.

There are many solutions to the shortage of teachers in classrooms within our district, none of which [HR representative, name redacted for privacy], offered to me or even attempted to discuss with me after I declined the transfer, which would have greatly reduced my capacity to care for my own family. Instead, due to her actions and lack of compassion, [school district] is left without one more certified and qualified teacher. With this unfortunate sequence of events, I have endured much emotional anxiety and stress, having to rearrange my care and travel schedule for my mother during a time I had off, consider lifestyle changes, and half-heartedly seek out new employment while I know my students need me. It was with deep sadness that I felt I was forced to resign my position with [school name], where I earned a reputation as a kind, compassionate, and diligent educator. Had your HR department, represented to me by [HR representative], acted in any capacity with empathy, understanding, or at bare minimum, a sliver of care for the teachers that educate the students of this district, perhaps there would be less of a shortage issue."
