dear mr.
please accept my resignation as associate chemist at the gert institute. i plan to leave my job here on september 30, 19-, taking a few days of annual leave just prior to that effective date.
as you know, my primary interest has been in the oil and gas industry. therefore, ive accepted a position with fury

refining, inc., that should put me back in touch with my first love.
although im eager to accept the challenges in this new position, i regret leaving the institute. you and the organization as a whole have treated me very well over the past three years. i wont forget the friendship and professional growth ive experienced as an employee here.

best wishes to all of you for years of expansion here.

sincerely,
