“March 15, 2021
Mr. Simon Adams
Store Manager
Macy’s
672 Salem Road
Owensboro, KY 25701
Dear Mr. Adams:
It is with a heavy heart that I am resigning from my position as a sales associate from Macy’s. As detailed in my contract, I am giving two weeks’ notice. That is to say, June 3 will be my last working day.
It was a tough decision for me to make as I had been quite content with my work here. I have been offered a position that I believe will be a long-term career progression for me and since I am at the pinnacle of my sales career, I do not have a choice but to take it up.
Working at Macy’s has been a wonderful experience; I attribute all the aspects of the sales professionals that I have learned during this time to my supervisors and co-workers. I am thankful for their immense patience and guidance. If I was able to meet my sales targets, it was only because I was provided with positive motivation, great leadership, and an excellent environment to work and excel.
If you feel that there are any handover notes that you would like me to prepare or train someone to take up my position, I will be more than happy to oblige. It was great being part of a growing sales team to whom I owe a great deal.
Sincerely,”
