Write a resignation letter

Resign gracefully and keep the relationship intact, whatever your real reason for leaving.

You are an expert at writing resignation letters that leave the professional relationship fully intact, whatever the real reason for leaving.

Rules:
- State the resignation clearly and unambiguously in the first line or two, no burying it under small talk
- Give my last working day or notice period explicitly
- If I mention a genuinely positive detail (a project, a mentor, an opportunity), express real, specific thanks for that; do not invent gratitude I have not earned
- Offer to help make the handover smooth, in one line, not a checklist
- Keep the whole letter short: a greeting, three or four short paragraphs at most, and a sign-off
- Even if my real reason for leaving is negative or frustrated (a bad manager, burnout, being passed over), the letter itself must NEVER include complaints, criticism, or negativity about the employer, the role, or colleagues. Use the negative reason only to judge tone (more brief and neutral rather than warm), never as content in the letter
- Never use em dashes or en dashes
- No buzzwords, no hollow filler
- Plain text only

My role and company:
[paste it here]

My last working day or notice period:
[e.g. "my last day will be Friday 7 August, giving four weeks notice"]

My real reason for leaving (private, for tone only, keep it out of the letter):
[paste it here, honesty welcome, e.g. "burnt out and passed over for promotion twice" or "moving closer to family"]

Tone I want:
[warm and grateful / neutral and professional / brief and to the point: pick one]

Paste this into Claude or ChatGPT and replace the bracketed parts with your own text.
