Otherwise, you express your departure in terms of having found a better opportunity.
I recently found the original draft of my resignation letter from 13 years ago.

You’re quitting? Well, you’re firing!
Other than pertinent info for your successors (i.e. where the launch codes are) merely state that you will be leaving and on what day. All else is none of their business.

The grass is not always greener on the other side of the fence, but I agree with the statement of if you have a bad boss or one you don’t think has your best interests at heart, it’s best to move on.
I wasted too many years in a bad situation. I should have moved on 5 years earlier.
Great post...
