Maximum respect to Neil Berrett in the good old US of A who resigned from his job in the tastiest manner Guru has ever seen.
Berrett presented his 'Cake of Resignation' to sweeten his departure from Hunters Point Naval Shipyard in San Francisco. Announcing his intention to leave the company in icing, he wrote:
Dear Mr. Bowers,
During the past three years, my tenure at the Hunters Point Naval Shipyard has been nothing short of pure excitement, joy and whim.
However, I have decided to spend more time with my family and attend to health issues that have recently arisen. I am proud to have been part of such an outstanding team and I wish this organization only the finest in future endeavors.
Please accept this cake as notification that I am leaving my position with NWT on March 27.
Sincerely,
W. Neil Berrett
Putting aside the horrific shirt and tie colour clash, Guru applauds the effort and would like to know if disciples have received any interesting or innovative resignation letters a la Berrett. Guru only wishes every employee was as thoughtful as our Neil.
Just one question: What type of cake was it?
