QUESTION
If you were to write a letter of resignation, which of the following introductory paragraphs would be the most suitable.
A) I have accepted another post. I am starting next month and I now resign my post with your firm.
B) My mother lives in Richmond and since my father's death her health has not been good at all. I try and visit her every second weekend but I find all the travelling very tiring and expensive. I have therefore decided to accept a new post in Richmond so that I can be closer to my mother. I will be leaving this firm at the end of June.
C) I would like to inform you that I have accepted an editing post with Smith's Publishers in Richmond. Thus, I shall be leaving this firm at the end of June.
D) Upon joining your firm, I was promised an increase of salary after the first 3 months. I have been expecting this raise for over a year now. Since I do not think this is coming any sooner, I have looked for a new job and resigning from my post in your company.
