The Most Outrageously Honest Resignation Letters That Will Leave You Speechless.

That “Help Wanted” Sign Isn’t Misplaced

a resignation letter taped to a store window

This employee’s anger at their boss was only a means to an end. When his boss didn’t show up to the shift, he left, but not before plastering this sign on the store window. What a way to humiliate both your boss and store.

The ending states, “Fire me if you must, but realize I walked due to YOUR negligence.” No one knows if the employee returned to the store, but the sign indicates that he did not.

Want another resignation letter placed on a public sign? You’ll get one.

This Place Blows

Here’s another worker in charge of the sign, disgruntled. This time, a worker at Polo Food Center announced their resignation through a large, public sign rather than a letter or email. Imagine the boss driving into work and seeing this beauty.

These companies should learn to treat their sign workers well so that employees won’t abuse their power. Then again, wouldn’t you take advantage of the opportunity? It’s more work than a typed letter, but also more satisfying.

They Still Care

This employee hates their boss but still cares about the customers. Even after a terrible day at work, and deciding to quit, they still had the decency to leave a note for the customers, which is nice.

They couldn’t help but explain their side of the story, though. Now everyone knows.

Everyone Loves Office Space

Who doesn’t love the movie Office Space? When this employee decided to quit, he went ahead and threw in a reference to the movie. He drafted the letter to sound like the boss Bill Lumbergh.

It’s not the classiest way to quit but it is funny. Well, probably not for the boss on the receiving end.

I Can’t Work Anymore, I’m Too Fat

resignation letter explaining that employee will get too fat

There are many reasons for employees to complain about receiving little pay: barely affording rent, gas money, etc. But this employee claims that their unhappiness with their salary causes them to eat more and makes them fat. They’re afraid that their fatness will ruin the company’s reputation.

The resignation letter comes with a daunting warning that when “you become Unhappy, you will eat a lot, I’m afraid you will become fat, like me.” Watch your diet, employer.

“I Quit,” A Haiku

This Resignation letter is in the form of a haiku

A former employee on Instagram gets to tell his “forebearers” that he “quit a job utilizing the power of the haiku.” The haiku contains two more verses, which go as follows:

“So here we go then / I should start by saying that / I liked working here / At the very least / I had a laugh with you guys.” Now, that’s a poetic resignation letter to hang in the staff room.

“Let’s Quit With Cakes”

We wish that we could be in the room to hear the conversation that these two coworkers and friends had when deciding to quit their jobs with cakes.

Not one but two employees decided to quit their job on the same day at this workplace. They were nice enough to leave some cake behind for their former coworkers! Now that’s classy.

Love The Customers, Not The Owner

Working at a place that’s chronically understaffed is no fun. The pay is the same, but the stress can be through the roof, as there’s never enough time to get the work done.

This resignation sign makes us sad, as the crew at this location expressed how much they love the customers, but can’t deal with the owner’s leadership anymore.

Quit With An Apologetic Card

This employee decided to quit using a “sorry for your loss” card. Alex gets extra points for creativity and originality on this one. This also shows that they think pretty highly of themselves!

Alex knows that once they leave, there will be a void at their workplace that will be difficult to fill.

Read Carefully

It’s amazing that this price tag made it all the way to the store floor! An employee was fed up with his “prick” boss and decided to include their thoughts in their work.

Here, if you read the product description, they cleverly included “MY BOSS IS A PRICK,” and “IM QUITTING TODAY”.

I’m Quitting Today, But First…

working at a grocery store doesn’t sound very fun. Imagine being around a bunch of food all day that you can’t eat! This employee was fed up with their grocery store gig and decided they were quitting.

But before they quit, they stocked the cereal aisle with all of the boxes upside down. This might confuse the kids.

No Remorse

This employee decided to use Homer Simpson to help them quit their job. Showing no remorse for leaving, the printed out a cheering Homer and hastily wrote “2 Week Notice!!” on it for their boss.
