Mr. Juan Santos
Director of Purchasing
Kauswagan Appliances
Cebu City

Dear Mr. Santos:

My three years at Kauswagan Appliances has been an invaluable period of learning and professional development. I arrived as a novice and I believe that today I am professional-primarily as a result of the personal attention and tutoring I have received from my supervisors and the fine example set both my superiors and my peers.

I believe the time has come for me to move on, however, to a larger professional development. Therefore I have accepted a position with General Electric, where I am scheduled to begin on August 20. thus, my last day at Kauswagan will be on August 18. However, if you need more time to hire and train my replacement. I can make arrangements to work longer.

Many thanks for the experiences I have gained, and best wishes for the future.

Very truly yours,


EDUARDO F. TUICO JR.

MEMO 2 (RESIGNATION LETTER)

To: Mr. Juan Dimagiba
Supervisor
From: Eduardo F. Tuico Jr.
Computer Technician
Subject: Resignation
Date: 8 August 2008

Sir:

I have been working in your company for about three years. I found so much development into myself through the help of your company as well with my co-workers. Your company contributes a lot in the improvement of my skills.

However, I planned to pursue my studies as a fulltime student at University of San Carlos. I want to have a bachelor degree so that I can have a better position that’s what I am now. It is for my own self in order to have more knowledge on the field that I am dealing. I am willing to stay 30 days so that you will have enough time in looking for my replacement.

It is a great opportunity in working at your company and I hope that in doing this resignation I can find myself better in dealing tough jobs.
