Resigning doesn\u2019t mean severing all ties with your employer. You may need him for future reference.
\nIt\u2019s the day<\/strong> you have been waiting for \u2014 the day you quit the job you really hate. If you loathe your boss, or the work, you may be tempted to put into play that resignation fantasy you have been perfecting during your miserable hours on the job:giving your boss a PowerPoint presentation detailing his incompetence, telling coworkers who\u2019s been gossiping about them or emptying the stockroom of post-it notes and computer paper to take home. After all, you\u2019re out of that place, right? Wrong. According to Stephen Viscusi, host of the nationally syndicated On the Job radio show and author of On the Job:How to Make it in the Real World of Work, how you resign will invariably influence your career in future. Don\u2019t get mad. Don\u2019t get even. Just get out with your hard-earned professionalism still intact. Here\u2019s how:<\/p>\n

Tongue-in-check<\/strong><\/p>\n

It\u2019s the oldest saying in the book: don\u2019t burn your bridges. While trashing your boss or coworkers may feel gratifying at the moment, once you speak the incriminating words, you can never take them back \u2014 yet people will always remember them. Remember, not only do you need your former employer as a reference, but it is quite likely you will run into someone connected with your old job in the future \u2014 either a coworker, client or supervisor. One caveat: if you have a formal exit interview, you can share appropriate grievances with HR. \u201cMake sure the interview is truly formal in nature,\u201d Viscusi says. Venting your frustration in a quick conversation with someone before you head out the door is unwise.<\/p>\n

Cool customer<\/strong><\/p>\n

Leaving a job can be an emotional experience for you and your boss. When you tell your supervisor you\u2019re quitting, you are essentially stating that you are firing him as your boss. He may feel shocked, angry or defensive. He may have to answer to a superior about why you decided to leave. Don\u2019t get into an emotional interchange with your boss. Although tensions may rise, keep yourself in check and remain professional. By quitting, you\u2019ve already gotten your revenge. Your boss will have to find someone to fill your position, train the new hire and wait for him to overcome any learning curve before being truly productive. You\u2019ve already got the boss where it hurts.<\/p>\n

Check out<\/strong><\/p>\n

Keep your resignation letter short and to the point and provide the effective date of your resignation. Don\u2019t send it by email. Go to the appropriate staff member in person and hand him the letter while you state you are resigning. Be aware that once you give your resignation, it\u2019s possible you may be immediately asked to clean out your desk before you\u2019re escorted to the door. Be sure you have already collected the things you really need the week before you resign, such as email addresses, business cards of clients, coworkers or supervisors and any information you may need regarding projects you\u2019ve worked on.<\/p>\n

New dawn<\/strong><\/p>\n

If your job was truly a horrifying experience, it can be hard to get over it. But bringing your old baggage to a new job is a surefire way to start building an unflattering reputation. Griping makes you look bad, not your employer. Besides, you\u2019ve got reason to celebrate. You\u2019ve got a new job. Get through your resignation as professionally as possible and move on to the greener pastures awaiting you.<\/p>\n
