resignation letter language - translated

We want a bitch-o-meter.

We're thinking it's the best way to find out what the executive weather is like around you without risking life or limb in the process. Oh, come on. You know what we're talking about: the days of closed office doors, three cups of coffee before 9am and the telltale smoke that drifts out of your ears. You've had those days.

The only thing that helps us survive your bitch days is thinking about the various ways we can tell you off in a resignation letter. We're more subtle than you, so you might not pick up on some of the nuances. We'll translate, just to be sure you're following along.


We'd like to take this opportunity to thank you for helping us realize we can adapt to any situation.
Your mood swings can generate more g-force than a stealth jet.

We realize not everyone gets the chance to work with someone like you. Thank you for the unique and interesting experience.
There's a good chance your leadership style will take you the way of the dinosaur: extinction.

Thank you for the direction and guidance you have provided.
We've learned how not to be an executive / manager / person by watching you completely f*ck it up.

It's been an incredible learning opportunity.
We couldn't make this shit up if we tried.


Our post today is short, sweet and to the point. Kind of like how we envision our resignation letter would be on those days.

Want to avoid reading one of these lines in a resignation letter from your soon-to-be ex-employee? Easy: don't be a bitch.
