Dear Madam,

I am resigning from position effective today. This is an irrevocable


resignation.

Then reason that I am resigning is because you are unfair and


have favoritism. Apparently, you been picking on me for the past
one year and I cannot tolerate it anymore. Although the
company is good to in general, I cannot stand a boss like you,
your poor management style and decision making skills.

Goodbye and I hope you change for the better.

Yours respectfully,

Robin D. Vera
