This tongue-in-cheek site introduces a ’10 second resignation letter’ with drop-down fields for each section that needs to be completed. Here is an example of a letter, using some of the more far fetched options on offer!

30 July 2010

Dear Mr. Smith

This is one of the most difficult letters I have ever written, as they don’t make keyboards with rude gesture keys. But I’ve realised that my ambition is no match for your stupidity. This is to inform you that I can no longer work here as the aliens are taking me to their mothership.

I’ll always remember my time here and look out my window to make sure you haven’t found me. You’ve taught me that a monobrow is not a sign of wisdom. Working for you has been a good indication what eternity must feel like. You remind me of Satan’s armpit. I’d like to thank you for the company petrol card.

Please accept my resignation and may it serve as a warning to others who contemplate joining here.

No hard feelings.
