dear mr. wong,

re: resignation from the post of settlement clerk

i would like to let you know how much i have enjoyed my last three years at the hero
company. hero company is an invaluable place for enriching my knowledge about
financial field, i enjoyed working with my colleagues and i have learned so much things
here.

because i would like to take a new challenge and i want to meet people from all walks
of life, i have accepted an offer from an insurance firm as a personal financial consultant.
i would therefore appreciate it if you would accept my resignation effective from 8 march,
XX.

i would be very much obliged if you would kindly give me a reference letter before i leave.
thank you for all that you have done to make my work here both interesting and
enjoyable.

yours sincerely,
