In Reply To: I hate my job more than anything that i have ever been through.I'm in my thirties and since i started this job two and a half years ago,i've developed high blood presure and other stress related problems.My doctor has advised me to find another job.However,even though i hate my job, i do like and respect the people that i work for.In addition to this,four people have left since January(out of a total of ten employees).The owner is very temperamental and i dread informing him that i am leaving the company.I'll admit that i feel like a coward because of this.This hasn't slowed my job search,but i would like to know the most painless way to handle this when the time comes.
Message: This is to inform you of my resignation two weeks from today. I enjoyed working here, and had a wonderful time, but the time has come to move on to bigger opportunities. Best of luck to you. Bye!
