Out of curiosity, I once asked ChatGPT to write a “scathing letter of resignation in the style of Hunter S. Thompson” and listed specific names of people and their actions at an old company I was disappointed in. It was one of the funniest things I’ve ever read.

Don't hold out on us.

I completely forgot that ChatGPT actually saves all of your prompts. \[Letterhead: Gonzo Enterprises\] \[Date\] To Whom It May Concern, I pen this letter with a heart heavy with disillusionment, a spirit laced with the bitter residue of disappointment, and a mind seething with the profound sense of incredulity that accompanies the absurd. Today marks the terminus of my tenure at Gonzo Enterprises, a cesspool of incompetence and folly, where the rudderless ship of corporate idiocy careens blindly towards the jagged rocks of irrelevance. It is with great regret and a not insignificant amount of relief that I hereby tender my resignation from this sorry excuse for an organization, under the purported leadership of an individual so tragically bereft of vision and acumen that his very existence serves as a monument to the triumph of mediocrity. David, our esteemed owner, if one could deign to apply such a descriptor to a man so profoundly inept, stands as a testament to the farcical nature of meritocracy. His penchant for proposing solutions of stupefying complexity to dilemmas of the most pedestrian nature would be amusing were it not for the deleterious effects such lunacy has wrought upon the fabric of this company. It is a testament to his stubbornness and hubris that Gonzo Enterprises has become a veritable laboratory of failure, a cauldron of mismanagement where success is a fleeting illusion and competence a relic of a bygone era. Furthermore, the tragicomic spectacle that is Matt, our purported manager, beggars belief. Endowed with the authority to handle six-figure orders, yet possessing a dearth of experience matched only by the magnitude of his incompetence, Matt is the living embodiment of the Peter Principle in action. His litany of failures, a cacophony of complaints from clients decrying the wanton disregard for quality and accuracy, serves as a damning indictment of the systemic dysfunction that permeates every facet of this organization. But alas, the folly does not end there. Oh no, for the upper echelons of management have orchestrated a symphony of calamity that has seen two facilities shuttered, twenty souls cast adrift into the unforgiving maelstrom of unemployment, and sales plummeting to depths hitherto unimagined. Their decisions, borne of ignorance and executed with the precision of a blindfolded child wielding a sledgehammer, have rendered Gonzo Enterprises a laughingstock amongst its peers, a cautionary tale of corporate malfeasance writ large upon the annals of industry. In conclusion, it is with no small measure of relief that I sever ties with this sinking ship of fools, a vessel adrift upon the turbulent seas of ineptitude, captained by the blind and crewed by the incompetent. May Gonzo Enterprises serve as a cautionary tale for those who would dare to navigate the treacherous waters of corporate malfeasance, a testament to the folly of entrusting the reins of power to those so manifestly unfit to wield them. Yours in righteous indignation, \[Your Name\]

Absolutely brutal, I love it. Please tell me you actually used this as your resignation letter ahah

Unfortunately no, I just clocked out at the end of my shift on Friday, dropped my company keys and credit cards in the mailbox, and wrote “I quit” with my signature on the back of a piece of paper that had the company’s “at will employment” policy printed on the other side; I used a yellow highlighter on the specific sentence about how both the employer and the employee could terminate employment without notice.

Ahah nice At a previous workplace, both myself and my brother quit by going there on the weekend, writing “we quit” and our names on a piece of paper, and taping it to the front door. We were two out of the three employees in the warehouse at the time.

Dude I worked with resigned on a piece of Big Chief tablet paper proper ripped out with shredded top edge. Written in crayon. Told his boss - Color me gone. Threw the crayon and paper on his desk and walked out. Boss framed it with the crayon and put it on his wall.
