16th Sep 2019: My First Ever Resignation Letter
Not much explanation is needed for the content of this post. After struggling for 9 months, yes, I have submitted the letter.
The letter was first drafted last year, after I got to know of the promotion and pay raise that I did not have. Then subsequently revised a few more times to dampen the angst and steer it towards a more professional tone.
Despite preparing for this moment for months, it was still a tough decision to make even until the point where I hit "Enter" to send it out.
What am I going to do after submitting this letter?
Will I be able to deal with the uncertainties.
Where am I going to head to after my last day of work?
Can I handle what is about to come?
Amidst these myriads of thoughts, I still come to the same conclusion that this wasn't a rash decision and it was a careful choice that I have decided on albeit not the smartest one that I could have made.
Between money and sanity, I chose the latter. Together with my dignity.
