Saying Good-bye

How do you say goodbye to your employer in a gracious manner, aside from the usual letter of resignation? Do you just leave the letter in your boss' documents tray and hope that he will call you to his room.

Or do you find the right moment to meet your boss in person and tell him straight to his face that you are leaving? How do you prepare yourself in telling your boss?

The problem for me is that I had been wanting to tell him myself and submit the letter afterwards. But he's been very busy and had even asked me to do so many things the past couple of days. I want to find the right timing to sit down with him and break the news.

But that moment has been rather elusive at the moment.

How would you do it?

Salam,

In my case, I had to mengadap the big boss to ask him to fill in the performance evaluation form in order to complete my application at another workplace.. so I got an earful before I've even tendered in my resignation hehehe

To me, mengadap is beradab.

Alhamdulillah, I managed to do that unscathed...

We should remember that when we wanted the job, we were willing to meet the person and be interviewed.

So, it is only fair and gracious for us to meet them again, face to face when we want to leave.

Whatever they say, take the positives, forget the negatives.

Remember, what goes around, comes around.
