A 30-year-old Singaporean woman has reached out to fellow locals online for guidance on how to tell her boss that she wants to resign from her job. After one and a half years with the company, she has become "extremely burnt out and mentally stressed" and feels that the workload is unbearable. The woman, who is a DINK (dual-income-no-kids) couple with no major financial commitments, has enough savings to last at least two years.
She is scared of her boss, who has a history of being mean and back-stabbing colleagues. Despite her desire to quit without a job, she cannot bring herself to resign due to fear of her boss. Users on the r/askSingapore subreddit have offered advice, encouraging her to write a simple resignation letter stating her last day and email it to her manager, cc'ing HR.
They also reminded her that her boss cannot stop her from resigning and that she is not a slave who will face any consequences for quitting.
