interoffice memo TO: Roger Wade FROM: John Kenton RE: Resignation

I've been a trifle formal here because this really is a letter of resignation, Roger, memo form or no. I'll be leaving at the end of the day-will, in fact, begin cleaning out my desk as soon as I've finished this. I'd rather not go into my reasonsthey are personal. I realize, of course, that leaving with no prior notice is very bad form. Should you choose to take the matter up with the Apex Corporation, I would be happy to pay a reasonable assessment. I'm sorry about this, Roger. I like and respect you a great deal, but this simply has to be.
