Delhi Employee's Resignation Email Goes Viral for 'One of the Finest Reasons'

A resignation email sent by an employee to the Human Resources (HR) Department of a Delhi-based company has gone viral for what many are calling “one of the finest reasons.” Rishabh Singh, co-founder of EngineerHub, an online platform for engineering students, shared a screenshot of the resignation letter in a post on X. The email, titled "Resignation Letter," humorously yet poignantly outlines the employee's frustrations.

Email Reads:

Dear HR, After two wonderful years of dedication and hard work, it seems my salary has remained as frozen as my hopes for an increment. I really wanted to Pre-book iQ00 13 at just 51,999 on 5th December but with this salary it's not possible. I'm worried how will my career move fast, if I don't have enough salary to buy fastest phone in India? Therefore, I've decided it's time to seek opportunities where growth isn't just a buzzword. My last working day will be 04 December 2024, and I'll ensure a smooth handover. Thank you for the experience and all the memories.
