Message: What you did in that thread took courage against the negative bullshit. I fully support you, that STI is a very very common disease. Most people don't even know they carry it, let alone spreading it. I asked about the STI's to my gyno not too long ago, because I was dumbfounded that condoms don't protect against certain diseases like Genital Warts/HPV, Herpes, and Molloscum. I needed a little lesson, so I asked as much as possible because I practice safe sex and like to stay informed, and informed person is a safe person. I was quite shocked about the skin diseases and the she said  that alot of people who are sexually active are carriers of HPV and the most sure fire way to protect yourself is abstineance. But I was told that unlike Herpes its up to you to tell if you have HPV. Also if my gyno said that the disease affects the cells where the warts are and the medication given may turn that abnormal cell back to normal, there is really no way of knowing, just like there is no way of knowing if your immune system cleared it. I'm confused about that though, that your immune system can clear the diease within two years whether its the warts or cancer strain, or does it go into remission. Unfortunatley the scariest thing is that you can protect your self with condoms because its the safest and the right thing to do but there are still diseases you can catch protecting your self, so what should we stop having sex altogether and live in a perpetual state of fear or should we be like some of these fools thinking that oh, that shit ain't go happen to me anyway? Like I said what you did was great and it opened and a dialouge although I'm still somewhat confused about the disease but in no way should people treat the disease as if it is some big time  stigma if its as common as being reported. STD's and STI's are a part of life and we all need to be informed. How some acted in that thread, you would've thought you announced you HIV/AIDS (I hate the stigma attached to that disease too). But may God be with you, hun. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Old Resignation Letter
I'm helping a friend type up a resignation letter, and we need some advice. Truthfully, this friend is leaving her part-time job because it is BORING. She told me that's the main thing.

How would you professionally and tactfully resign? People should give a reason for resignation. Here's what I came up with so far:

I am writing to inform you of my resignation effective [date]. I am pursuing other opportunities and cannot continue employment as a...


Thank you for the opportunity of employment.


Is that good enough? It's been a while since I wrote a resignation letter. If there are any managers of HR personnel among us, feel free to also comment.

Old Re: Resignation Letter
Because it's boring?! Lol um ok. I hope she at least has another job lined up.

Just keep it brief-don't go into detail. Something along the lines of: "...due to personal circumstances beyond my control I am unable to continue employment..."

Saying that you're "pursuing other opportunities" makes it sound like you're leaving because you found a better job.

I am writing to inform you of my resignation effective [date]. Thank you for the opportunities for professional and personal development that you have provided me. I have enjoyed working for the company and appreciate the support provided me during my tenure with the company.


I personally feel that you do not have to state in your letter why you are resigning. Most employers ask for the reason on your exit interview.

Thank you for the opportunity of employment.


The part in red is unnecessary. A person is not obligated in a resignation letter to explain why they are leaving. Keep it short and sweet.

"I am writing to inform you of my resignation effective (date of letter). My final day of work will be (day and date). [I'm assuming she is giving two weeks notice.] Thank you for the opportunity to work for your company."

She's married and I'm not going to speak about her family's business. In other words, she ain't pressed.

It was a part-time gig after all. She just deposits her pay into her personal money market.

You don't have to go into details as to why you resign. Just state you're resigning and give the date of when it is effective. Thank them for the opportunity of working there. Then sign it and keep it moving

...on to the next "boring" job.

Trust me when I tell you that I have had a boring job. It can be tough unless you have plenty of privacy and personal space to get into other things. She has worked at this organization for over three years and it became painful just to go inside. There's really no more room for growth on her end.

She wants to volunteer to work with homeless women with kids.

The only resignation letter I've written, I threw mad shade. The company made me resign because I hadn't completed the necessary training. Mind you, I was a full-time college student and had missed five whole days of class to do other training for this job. They got the letter, and I guess they felt bad because they begged me to stay
