Hi whomever,
Please consider this my notice of resignation effective insert date here.
Thank you,
Name
It’s not rude to be brief, it’s just a formality. If you want to be polite, do it face to face with your manager and then send that email right after.
Screenshot this for my resignation. I have not figured out when but hopefully by end of this year. Looking forward to that day 😊

Dearest Supervisor,
Over the last X Time Period, I have had the honor of my life to work at Dewey, Cheatem, and Howe, LLP. I will never forget the best of times we’ve had together, and the infinite wisdom you’ve provided me. You are easily the best boss I’ve ever had.
Unfortunately, all good things must end— in the words of Boris Johnson, “thems the breaks.” Also like Boris, my time in this job is numbered. My last day will be X.
I wish you the best in all of your life’s endeavors,

/s just do two sentences like suggested above.
I asked for a physical paper copy that was signed, I had some accommodations made due to a previous surgery.
Fully agree with this, never give a “reason” or any justification in writing. That is for an exit interview or an in person conversation if you choose to do that. The email or letter of resignation is simply just for hr to put in their file and so they notify to end payroll.
Thank you!
This is my first professional job, and it helped me get my foot in the door. But damn I hate the way I’ve been treated.
Hi (direct supervisor)
I wanted to let you know that I will be resigning from my position, effective (your last day). Please let me know if any questions come up as I transition my duties to the rest of team. It has been a pleasure working with you these past x year as and I wish you all the best”
Just something off the top of my head, you can customize as is relevant to your job but short and sweet is best.
Thank you very much.
“Bye Felicia”

Supervisor,
Please accept this letter as my formal resignation. My final day with ABC firm will be XX/XX/XXXX, two weeks from today.
I’d like to thank you for the opportunities I received during my time with ABC firm. During my last two weeks I will be readily available to assist with the transition of my work to my replacement or another team member.
Regards,
Employee
Just be sure it is professional, short, to the point, include your actual last day, and make it clear that you intend to work those last two weeks. No need to give out any reason, be emotional, include where you’re going, and certainly don’t do something stupid that would make you go viral.
Thank you very much! It’s my first professional job and I get so worried over the little things like this
