Resignation Question

[Phil]

Hey,

My girlfriend is gonna quit her job (works in same place as me but different dept.). She's going to resign tomorrow but she's going to EMAIL her resignation. I personally think it's unacceptable to send a resignation by email, what does everyone think?

;lll

[Martin]

I know some places require written notice etc (and obviously a certain amount of time given as notice), otherwise it could definitely affect her reference etc?


I've not really heard of resigning by email though haha!

[Joe]

Personally I think she should do it via letter (written). I think it's unprofessional.

[lawrawrrr]

I personally wouldn't resign over email, would prefer face to face, but it can be easier for people who don't like confrontation about things!

[Inseriousity.]

Resign over PM duh.

lmao yeah over email seems a bit dodgy, like you're just trying to avoid doing it face-to-face.

[!:random!:!]

normally its letter or face to face and you have to give a months notice

[Alysha]

Yeah, just make the email into a letter and give it in that way, they much prefer the hard copy.

Most places require a written letter of resignation, and not by email. Would be something i'd recommend to be fair.

At least she is informing them, I've seen people leave company before and not even mention it to management. So they wonder for a few days why haven't they come into work.

What the heck, that's so dumb of them lmao.

Tell her to write a letter then hand it to her dept manager.
