Tyler Lau
Director, Human Resources
CLL Records
123 Business Rd.
Business City, NY 54321
Dear Mr. Lau,
Please accept this letter as my formal resignation from CLL Records. Over the last few months, I have realized that I am just not a good fit for my position here. My final day of work will be April 29, 2022.
I feel that the company culture is not as I had expected, and the environment has been a difficult adjustment for me. I am so sorry for the inconvenience, and I thank you for your understanding. You have been very patient with me in this transitional time, but unfortunately I no longer think either of us are benefiting from my presence at CLL.
I am happy to help in any way necessary to alleviate this rocky time. Please let me know if you need anything; I am more than willing to assist with the transition. I wish you all the best and lots of success for CLL Records.
Sincerely,
Your Signature (hard copy letter)
William Lee”

“August 4th, 2019
Jennifer Cordoba
Director of Sales
SalidaCorp
Ferguson, New Mexico
Dear Ms. Cordoba,
Please accept this notice of my resignation from the position of sales representative at SalidaCorp. My last day with the company will be September 4th, 2019, in order to give our team time to transition.
While I am grateful for the opportunity to work with the SalidaCorp sales team, I have come to the conclusion that I do not share the same work style and long-term goals as other members of the team. I now think that it will be beneficial for me to find a position that better suits my methods and pace. I would like to thank you and the team for training me and for helping me through my first couple of months. Please do not hesitate to reach out to me if there is anything that I can do to make the transition period less challenging for you all. Thank you again.
Regards,
Jacques Daniels”

Janet Yan
Director of Design
Shuttershock Films
Palo Bajo, California
Dear Ms. Yan,
I have taken the decision to resign from my position at Shuttershock Films, effective immediately.
Recent circumstances have convinced me that I do not share the same vision and work habits as the rest of the staff. Because of this, I believe it would be best for me to pursue work at a different studio. I would like to express my gratitude for allowing me to work with such a well-known design team, and I hope that my resignation does not negatively impact your work. If there are any final steps I can take to make this process easier, please contact me by phone or email and I will be happy to help. I wish you and your team success in your current and future projects.
