Worker's resignation letter to their boss sparks discussion online: 'I am taking that vacation starting now..."

One day, you're going to quit your job—and that's a fact… Whether it's over a disagreement, for relocation, for growth—or because you're leaving the workforce for good. When that time comes, it will be up to you (mostly) on what terms you want to leave on. Do you want to leave on good terms, possibly even despite long-held grudges? Or do you want to set the world ablaze—full scorched earth policy—burning every bridge behind you as you go?

This worker shared the resignation they were planning on sending to their boss after landing a new job with better pay and benefits, detailing how they were going to tell their boss that their last day would be today before outlining their grievances and the reason for their departure. 

Their post sparked discussion in this lively online community, and readers shared their thoughts in the comments, see screenshots of this original post and some of the reactions below.
