The Resignation
Last week the day came for which I had been waiting for in the past three months, the day when I would be putting down my papers. I had a lot of things thought out in my mind about what I would be doing before marking my exit from the company. I had thought that I would be super honest and which in this case would have meant to be very rudely informing people about their incompetency and uselessness (as per my opinions, something which is open for debate). I had earlier thought that my notice letter would be plain and simple with few hard facts about the work and how it became the prime mover for the shift and not the other things. I had also thought that I would bring in number of inefficiency generating attributes ,which I had noticed in my past 3-4 months of stay in the company (something which strangely no one working here had noticed in their past 3 years or maybe they were there for a purpose). But when the day came, suddenly I ditched all of my pre-marinated plans and did a complete reversal.
In my letter I apparently thanked the people whose incompetency i was thinking of brining up, I gave the reason for leaving as different personal interests, and above all regarded the most gruelling and troublesome experience as the most thrilling and challenging (It was meant to be euphismistic but it changed whole sense). So why did I do this or in the first place why had I thought of taking the other course of action initially. The planned course of action was simply to satisfy egos. I had also thought that bringing these things into notice would probably help the company as I had isolated the prominent reasons which were affecting the company's operations (again my analysis and interpretations). But then why did I not do what I had planned, well fear of any complications in already smooth appearing transition process, had made me to ditch my plans which I had made for past 3 months, in just 3 minutes. So in the end I didn't ruin my relations with anyone but probably I didn't let the company know what it should be knowing, as it is highly unethical for an employee to do anything which could harm the company and I believe that in the want of an honest feedback, the company is going to loose (Again my opinion). So in the end i mitigated the risk by being politically correct!!
The courage required for honesty is too much.
