5 times people made headlines for their viral resignation letters
In August 2024, a US woman’s email to her boss, wherein she resigned because of her boss’s micro-management made much news. In her email. the employee shared how her manager’s apathy to the poor working conditions, strict rules of not letting the employees talk, and her micro-managing attitude made her feel anxious and dislike her job.
Her email read, “I have never sent an employer such an email, but I am very hurt. This job was one of the best I have had, yet my manager managed to suck the spirit out of me and I grew to hate it with a passion. I was a housekeeper mainly, and often wasn’t provided the supplies to do my job… Multiple employees, myself included, had spoken to her in person, about the cleaning supplies and the bedbug issue and nothing changed. Our best employees quit over a month ago due to her poor management as well. She wants robots, but we are people. I started another job where I won’t have to worry about this anymore.”
