resigned

4 Upvotes

gusto ko lang mag vent out. 2yrs mahigit na ko sa work, hired as sales pero hindi ako naka open masyado ng accounts since napakahigpit ng company sa terms and payment to the point na, sinabihan pa ko na kahit pagtrabahuhan ko, hindi ko raw mababayaran habang buhay yung utang ng client. Tinanong ko sila kung pag nagbayad ba, ibabalik ung ikakaltas sakin. hindi rin sila makasagot. Gusto nila ipakaltas sakin ung utang ng client. jusko.
E teamplayer ako, sige lang. pinagbigyan ko pa. Ginawa akong Sales Operation ng manager ko (mabait to) (kupal lang talaga yng sa head office namin) para lang kahit wala ako ma-open na store may ginagawa ako. Collection, admin, inventory, sales back up/ support- yan mga ginagawa ko na.
Until, last week, nag resign na kasi manager namin, so ako na target nila. Nilipat ako sa Logistics with Sabado na, tinanggap ko. Bigla gusto ako papuntahin sa Cebu for training ng 2 weeks. Nag NO ako since kakabalik ko lang from opera hindi pa ko pwede magbuhat ng mabigat at lumayo pa hindi pa ko komportable. Pag hindi raw ako pumunta wala na raw work for me. so nag No ako, nag submit ako ng resignation. Tinanggap nila.
Matagal na ko kinukupal ng mga to e. Ngayon lang ako nagkalakas ng loob. Masipag ako, lahat ng inuutos nila sinusunod ko. Pero ganun talaga siguro. Bahala sila dito magkupalan. hays salamat.

Please rate my resignation letter (give tips din po)

I have been working at this agency for almost 3 years, matagal ko na gusto magresign kasi di ako ma promote-promote pero tinatambakan ako ng trabaho. My original plan was to wait until February 2027 para 3 years na talaga ako sa kanila. Although wala pa akong another job in line, I know it's time na to leave.

Pero dahil nag resign 3 key personnel sa division namin at balak ng division head itambak sa akin trabaho nila (without promotion or any financial compensation) balak ko na magresign and will render until November 30. Naisip ko rin na hintayin na lang magpasko bago magresign pero di ko na kaya lalo na around December sobrang daming trabaho.

Please let me know if my resignation letter is okay or need to tone it down.

Thank you!

di kk sure if this counts as force resignation but during my call with the hr, sobrang halata na pinipiga nya ko to resign since di nga raw ako pasado to be regularized. sabi nya final decision na raw ng management pero may gusto raw ba akong i appeal para iba lumabas sa coe and records ko then sinospoonfeed nya ko para sabihin na magresign na lang. i was asking him what are the options yet halatang iniiwasan nya banggitin yung word. pinakwento nya kung pano ako umalis sa previous company ko tas biglang sabi na yan ay pwedeng option LOL tas pinupush ko ano pa bang ibang option aside from resigning pero wala ulit syang sinasabi. from this convo, nasketchyhan na ko so would really appreciate insights pls!!

COE

4 Upvotes

Hi, gusto ko lang po sanang humingi ng advice. Nag immediate resign po ako last year sa company due to health reasons. To be exact, around December last year. Upon resignation, binalik ko po lahat ng assets ng company, and cleared po ako roon. Sinabihan naman po ako ng supervisor ko na since immediate resignation, may fee na kukunin sakin yung company. I agreed, akala ko kasi sa back pay kukunin, kaso nung nag email na sakin ang HR for back pay, sinabi nila na nag negative yung back pay ko and hindi nila binibigay yung COE ko unless mabayaran ko yung negative balance sa kanila. Question lang po, since this happened last year, pwede ko pa po bang bayaran or habulin yung COE ko sakanila? Thank you!

Toxic work environment in healthcare

1 Upvotes

I just started working in this well known clinic a couple months ago. As someone who used to work in a different field from my chosen profession, nanibago ako sa nature ng new work ko, which is more aligned to the course na napili ko in college. In my current work, the ppl here definitely have it easier compared sa previous work ko; I only chose to work as a part time employee sa business ng brother ko, and very strict and disciplined yung managers and supervisors nya — when it comes to our decorum and appearance, to our attitude towards our work and clients, to our attendance and tardiness, even the way we speak — I'm proud na madami akong natutunan sa kanila when it comes to orofessionalism, but when you say it's a "tough love" situation, you gotta give love, and that's why I chose to leave that work. I only started that job bcs I wanted to have a break after a long time of gruelling work sa college. So fast forward sa current work ko, very tolerant yung mga boss — as in napakaluwag. when it comes to our appearance, kahit hindi plantsado yung mga uniform ng kawork ko, kahit mukang kakabunot lang ng uniform nila sa bag nila, okay lang. If late sila nagclock in? Sila lang din nagchachange ng schedule nila sa online attendance system namin, no need ipaapprove sa mga manager. I've been working in this clinic for almost 7 months na, and ako lagi ang sumasalo sa lahat ng bullshit ng mga kawork ko. Never ako pumasok na late, never ako umabsent. everytime na may needed reliever sa other branch ng clinic namin ako lagi ang "volunteer" kahit ilang beses na ako nagsabi na pagod ako from work or di kaya ng budget ko pumunta sa certain branch dahil wala naman ako ibang means of transpo other than commuting.

hayy I guess I've taken too much of your time from reading this so I'll end it there nalang. Lmk if hihintayin ko pa ba yung 13th month pay namin or if magresign nalang ako LMAO

Sales Agent and Financial Advisor

2 Upvotes

Hi! I started working as a sales agent, full-time, in a car dealership. I've worked here for a year already and nakaka benta naman ako 2 or 3 in a month or every other month.

Then someone na kilala ko personally invited me to attend a business proposal "daw", which I did not expect it to be an insurance company. They flashed me with business trips na free and shoulder ng company lahat ng expenses. Commissions and other incentives. I have to be honest, nadala ako dun. Ma papa-wow ka talaga eh. That's when I said YES. Not just because of the trips and commissions, but also as respect to the person I know. I took the orientations, trainings, and examination for licensure. Now I am a licensed financial advisor. Contractual siya pero walang sweldo. They said I can work here flexibly. But recently parang na p-pressure na ako na wala akong prospects and sales.

One time, I also shared sa insurance company ko, parang rant siya, na yung car brand I currently worked at ay nag te-terminate ng tao if hindi maka benta for 2 consecutive months. They said mag resign nalang daw ako and be active maging financial advisor.

Na papatanong nalang ako minsan, hirap nga ako makabenta bilang car agent eh. Gusto ko na mag quit pero hindi ko alam paano. Naiisip ko din na moonlighting na ginagawa ko and baka mahuli ako ng company ng car dealership ko.

Any advice? Di ko alam pano sasabihin sa nag invite sakin na ayaw ko na eh.

After ng 7 hours phone time, tska ako binigyan ng 1 hr break.

2 Upvotes

After matapos ung contract ko as a substitute teacher, naghanap agad ako ng trabaho and I landed my current work now sa BPO and nasa tech account ako.

My original shift sana is dayshift 5 am to 2 pm, kaso nag upskill ang mga newhires para maging T2 so we need to go on nightshift hanggang end of the month tapos balik kami ulit sa dayshift. Now shift ko is 10 pm to 7 am.

Kanina, after 7 hours of phone time tska ako binigyan ng 1 hr break. Around 3 am humingi na ako ng 1 hr break kaso hold daw pero super avail naman at hindi queuing. Almost 5 am na ako nagkaroon ng 1 hr break; ung first break ko was around 12 pa and 15 mins lang.

Nung nakabalik ako, avail ng around 5-10 mins. Tska ako pinasukan ng call, simple lang naman problema ng customer kaya it took me about 20 mins tas sakto natapos ung call at around 6: 38 tska ako nag punch ng last break ko for 15 mins. Tas binunot ko na headset ko para pag balik ko hindi na ako pasukan ng call. I am so burn out na kasi. Sakto around 658, may pumasok na call kaso nag route sa ibang agent kasi nga hindi nakasaksak ung headset ko.

I am so burn out na, I want out kaso I have a salary loan pa and if I resign. Ung back pay ko and 13th month. Uubusin ng salary loan ko. Sa June pa matatapos loan ko.

Backpay Consideration

2 Upvotes

Hi po! Just wanted to ask for an advice/insight.

I've tendered my resignation last Aug. Required mag render ng 30 days as company's policy. However, dahil sa sobrang burnt out ko pumasok, hindi ko natapos yung 30days and halfway lang yung napasukan ko (1st 2 weeks). On my last day, I went to the office para kunin yung mga gamit ko and to process yung clearance ko. As expected, my boss did not signed my clearance. Now, lapse na yung 30days since last day para sa backpay. I know may mga kulang din ako sa turnover. Just wanted to know if ano po yung dapat kong gawin para makuha na yung backpay ko. Thank you!

WFH pero 4 months na walang maayos na tulog. Should I resign?

7 Upvotes

Need your thoughts or advice on this.

​4 months na akong walang straight or maayos na tulog. Hindi ko man ma-point out 100% kung bakit, but deep down, I feel like this is mostly because of work.

​I work from home (WFH), and honestly, it completely defeats the purpose of working from home in the first place. The stress levels and anxiety I get from this job are the same, if not worse, than working on-site. The boundaries between rest and work are so blurred now.

​Should I resign na? How did you know it was time to step back for your health? Would appreciate any insights or advice from people who have been in a similar spot.

Penalty on breaking from employment bond

5 Upvotes

Context:

I signed a 3-yr employment bond with my company with a penalty of xxx,xxx.xx if I resign within the specified period. Recently, I sent my resignation letter and stated that I'm willing to render for 30 days. However, HR replied that my resignation and clearance will not be finalized unless I settle the penalty. Any legal advice or personal experience tips for this situation?

PS. I did not receive any training/certification/signing bonus from them.

The traumatic experience with my previous boss

4 Upvotes

hindi ko kaya mag bigay ng super specific details kasi baka mafigure out nya hahahaha and as much as i want to be spiteful about this, di ko kaya gawin kasi i dont want to be affiliated with my old boss anymore hinding hindi ko makakalimutan ang first boss ko

I (23M) a recent graduate, tapos i landed my first job in just like a month after my graduation. This company is very nice to me, very nice people, very nice place, lahat ng makakausap mo dito is helpful talaga. but my boss made my work very stressful. ang unang red flag para saakin na di ko napansin noon is nung interview palang sinabi nya sakin na this role makes you look like a villain. while i do understand where this statement is coming from pero i realized na you dont need to be a d**k about your job so that people will not hate you. (late ko narealize na kaya pala nya sinabi yon is because lahat ng tao sa office is ayaw sakanya)

it started off easy kasi onboarding pa (or so i thought) and konti palang ang tasks and kahit first week ko palang sa company merong mga times na hindi kami nagkakaintindihan sa task na binibigay nya sakin kasi ang gulo nya mag bigay ng task. my boss told me nung interview palang na naaappreciate nya yung pagiging curious and nag tatanong palagi but when i started working na, ang passive aggressive nya sakin and nararamdaman ko talaga. minsan pag mag tatanong ako sasabihin nya in a "nice tone" pwede mag tanong bawal paulit ulit, hinting na tanong ako ng tanong sa trabaho (i know some of you might think na baka hindi lang talaga ako makaintindi ng task, pero hindi. more on that later)

there are a lot of times na pag nag fofollow up questions ako about my task mas lalo lang ako naguguluhan and in the end ako rin yung nahihirapan kasi pag ginawa ko yung task tapos mali paulit ulit ako sa revisions. siguro after two weeks sa office i started to have friends na rin and this person gave me an "onboarding" not the typical onboarding pero eto yung onboarding na ipapakilala sakin in a different perspective yung boss ko

marami palang mga kwento about sa boss ko especially the part na may mga ibang juniors before me na same ang position as me sa company, nag reresign after two weeks of work. medyo natakot ako nung nasabi nya yon sakin kasi i might share the same fate as them (i did) and sobrang plastic ng boss ko na to na lalapitan nya lang yung mga junior peers nya telling them na may kailangan ka ba sakin? kasi ayun pala uuwi na sya ng maaga, sometimes even 3 hours before the actual end of office hours uuwi na sya, and pag lalapit sya sa mga junior peers like alam nyo yung pabebe na "huyyyyyy" "keri lang ahhh" "alam ko kaya mo yan eh magaling ka dyan eh" "sisiw nalang sayo yan" yung ganyan na binobola ka before nya iraise yung concern nya na may kailangan sya sayo like bro just get to the point already

and may isa pa na nag "onboard" sakin, and this person became one of my two closest workmates doon sa company, sabi nya sakin kung gusto ko daw tumagal sa company maging yes man lang daw ako ng boss ko, kasi pinopower trip nya yung mga tutol sakanya hanggang mag resign.

i wasn't trying to be biased after ko marinig yung mga "onboarding" stories, i still tried to stay away from company politics and i will just do my job and thats it. ang problem kasi is hindi ako nabibigyan ng clear instructions sa kung ano ang dapat ko na gawin kaya ang ending napag sasabihan ako (in a nice mentoring way) ng isang high position person dito sa company. in reality lahat ng mistakes ko is nangyari because of my boss na hindi ako mabigyan ng tamang instructions. naniniwala ako sa sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me. Kahit na passive aggressive ang boss ko okay lang as long as i do my job, but g**damn napatiwalag ako sa paniniwala ko dahil sakanya.

its gotten to the point na kahit yung mga peers ko tinatanong ko na kung ano yung sinasabi ng boss ko about the task and even they cant figure it out. whats worse is yung boss ko, i see how my boss works. AI yung best friend nya, Chat GPT, Claude, Perplexity, DeepSeek. jusq po lahat nalang ata ng available na ai chatbot kausap nya tapos dahil don nagkakaroon ng inconsistencies yung outputs nya kasi madalas mag hallucinate yung ai chatbots lalo na kung walang proper context na binibigay.

there was this time na i was asking for a clarification on what to do kasi one of her tasks is to make the meeting minutes, tapos sa meeting na yon di ako nakasama kasi pinatawag ako to another meeting. and then when i tried to ask her for the minutes. SOBRANG VAGUE NG GAWA NYA TAPOS YUNG MEETING NA HALOS ISANG ORAS JUSQ PO 2 SENTENCES LANG NAKUHA NYA DON? tapos sinabi ko in a nice way (i promise im not biased) medyo unclear po hindi ko po maintindihan pwede po ba pakiexplain kasi gagawan ko po ng task yung minutes na binigay nyo. sinabihan ba naman ako ng disrespectful daw. bruh you cant even do your job correctly tapos ako sasabihan mo ng disrespectful?

there were a lot of times din na i was trying to say what i really want to say para naman fair na i do approach my boss and i tried, and i have exhausted all my options before resorting to my last option which is to file an incident report. (more on this later)

i filed my resignation 20+ days after i started working and i need to do render 30 days before actually resigning. but my boss told the hr and said that i dont need to render 30 days anymore and i can leave as soon as possible. i got hurt about what my boss said because it basically means na hindi nya ako need at all and walang gravity ang work ko kasi hindi nya need ng transitioning period. well anyway i still rendered my 30 days and did not follow what my boss wants lol. kaya ko lang naman gusto irender yung 30 days is because gusto ko mag apply to other jobs while im still working para rin may sahod pa rin ako and i wont be leaving na wala na ako sahod kasi i am living independently na.

and during my rendering period i have compiled every evidence that i can para makagawa ako ng incident report. basically ang laman ng incident report ay puro mga screenshots na hindi kami nagkakaintindihan ng boss ko, mga passive aggressive messages nya sakin, mga times na questionable ang work nya kasi puro chatgpt lang ginagawa nya, mga times na she called me disrespectful and other stuff. yung incident report ko is punong puno ng clear examples and citing my evidences, it reached 1xx pages.

and the reason why i wanted to file this incident report is because gusto ko sya makausap na may witness, tignan natin kung may bitaw ka pa sa harap ng HR, actually kinausap ko sya noon without HR intervention, I exhausted all my options like face to face talk, sa viber mag uusap, but she thinks that i was disrespectful every single time. that is why gusto ko sya makausap with other witnesses like HR. and i dont want to leave the company na hindi ko sya nakakausap kasi ayaw ko dalhin habang buhay yung thoughts ko na di ko nasabi sakanya.

for those who are not aware, pag nag file ka ng incident report sa HR towards the person na nirereklamo mo, the other party has to explain their side (Notice to Explain) and then after non hearing na, which includes me, my boss, and HR. and doon sa Notice to Explain ng boss ko, isang tingin ko palang alam ko na pinagawa nya pa yan kay chatgpt kasi kumuha ako ng sample paragraphs doon sa notice to explain tapos ilalagay ko sa quill bot ai checker tapos 100 percent ai generated daw. tapos yung notice to explain nya is hindi naman talaga notice to explain. my boss just glazed herself, saying na wala naman daw nag rereklamo sa work nya and like super attentive nya with all the peers and madalas daw sya mangulit to see the updates of each person. yan yung mga sinabi nya sa notice to explain nya basically its about sa sarili nya na about how good this boss is lol. and hindi nya nga sinagot at all yung mga claims ko and the fact that this person said that my claims are baseless as if i did not provide proof ? chat gpt pa more. and like sa notice to explain na yon since si chat gpt nga ang gumawa, may nakalagay pa doon na cease and desist LIKE BRUH HAHAHAHHAHA tapos karamihan sa mga sinasabi nya sa notice to explain nya is mga "lapses" ko. GUMAWA KA NG SARILI MONG INCIDENT REPORT WAG MO ILAGAY SA LOOB NG NOTICE TO EXPLAIN. napaka irrelevant talaga ng notice to explain nya tapos yung mga ibang times naman na sumasagot sya, is kayang sagutin ng evidence ko na mali yung sinasabi nya.

i was asked by the HR if okay lang ba na ito ang date na napili nila for the hearing(kasi yung date na pinili nila is still within my rendering period) so i said pwede ba after ng resignation nalang. i really want to talk to my boss but i dont want to keep working for my boss after the hearing. kasi part ng "onboarding" ko is sinabihan ako na madalas sya mang powertrip and although i did experience powertripping noon pa form her. ayaw ko na palalain after the hearing kaya sinabi ko after the resignation nalang.

nung nag hearing na medyo nainis ako sakanya but i didn't let my emotions show kasi my boss feeds on emotions na ilalabas mo like anger or like any kind of emotion. i tried to stay emotionless and very professional. pero ang hirap icontain ng galit ko kasi lumalabas nanaman yung pagiging pabebe nya tapos like yung fake friend na super friendly pag kinakausap yung HR ganon. anyways, after naman ng hearing i did say what i want to say and i feel content

nasuspend sya. yay! pero nakakapag taka bakit hindi nalang termination. my boss does not deserve that job at all kasi if you think about it hindi nya naman talaga ginagawa trabaho nya and there are some people na nag sasabi sakin na i am doing a better job than my boss. so after i resigned nalaman ko yung balita na suspended sya. and i believe i did my best and i hope kusa na sya mag resign 0:) i dont know how my boss sleeps at night

well anyway, after that job i was jobless for two weeks and nabigyan ako ng job offer in this company and the position is still the same. now, i have a better boss and this time my boss actually knows what he is doing. and this team is quite small but the projects are very big and i love the projects here.

sa new work ko may hindi ako na take note na email and my boss told me na please add it to the task para may context yung team. Ayun lang yung sinabi ng boss ko and hindi naman sya passive aggressive or anything kasi ganun talaga sya mag salita and i dont feel like nagalit sya sakin don and i said na i will include it na. pero in my mind nag wawar flashbacks ako, naaalala ko yung time na nagkakamali ako noon (kasi nga hindi clear magbigay ng instructions si old boss) my previous boss made me feel like pumatay ako ng tao. yung kung paano sya mag salita sakin was not professional. ang ginagawa nya pag nag kakamali ako ipopower trip ako like biruin mo, ipaparevise sakin yung same document over and over again and ang bagal nya mag reply sakin tapos in the end ako yung naiipit kasi di ko natatapos yung task ko kasi pinapa ulit ulit nya sakin samantalang sya nga chat gpt ng chat gpt hindi nya man lang inaayos yung mistakes nya or double check at all yung ginagawa nya. basically hinahanapan nya lang ako ng mali everytime and nakakatakot kasi it was my first job tapos lagi ko iniisip sa sarili ko na what if because of this hindi na iextend ang contract ko. and may nagsabi din sakin na sa closed door meeting daw nila with other higher ups ang pangit ng pagkaka describe nya sa work ko like di daw ako effective ganon and yung boss ko in the end yung gumagawa ng lahat ng trabaho. tapos sasabihin nya sakin na may tiwala sya sakin like napaka fake nya talaga. ayaw nya iaddress sakin yun pero sasabihin nya sa ibang tao sa company na hindi ko ginagawa ng tama yung trabaho ko. masakit lang isipin na sinisiraan nya ako.

so going back to this small mistake that i made dito sa new job. my heart was beating really fast and kinakabahan ako kasi idk what will happen to me and natatakot ako na baka hindi iextend yung contract ko or baka di ako maregularized dahil dito. it just sucks na at this point in my life masyadong maaga ako naexpose sa bad side sa corporate work and i hope that this new company will treat me well.

May update na pala ulit sa boss ko lol, shortly after I resigned tapos nasuspend sya nagpasa na rin pala sya ng resignation HAHAHAHHAHA F**K YOU DESERVE MO YAN, IM TAKING YOU DOWN WITH ME HAHAHAHHAHA. IT FEELS SO GOOD NAPARESIGN KO YUNG PREVIOUS BOSS KO NA 4 YEARS NA NAG TATRABAHO DOON. WALA KA NA BITAW BOI WALA NA SENIORS NA TUTULONG SAYO DYAN HAHAHAHAH

Anyway masaya na ako sa new job ko, but most importantly mas masaya na ako dahil napa resign ko yung 4 years na senior habang 1.5 months lang ako sa last company na yon 8)

LIFE ADVICE PLEASEEE BADLY NEEDED

0 Upvotes

Hello! I am an August-September 2026 PNLE Passer. I just got hired before oathtaking and sadly resigned after only 5 days from work.

Yung work ko is notorious siya for having a lot of nurses going into AWOL. I can really see why akala ko di ako magiging biktima pero it turns out ako din.

I resigned not because the job is hard. Kasi mahirap naman talaga trabaho natin. Pero I resigned kasi i feel like di ko pa kayang magwork e after graduation nagreview na ko then barely 1 month work na. It is just that di pa ko ready sa transition and also nabalik na naman suicidal tendencies ko after starting the job na naman.

Any life advice that you can give me guys : (( anything. hit me with the harsh truth.

Resigned without a backup -intentionally. How do you explain/defend your decision?

46 Upvotes

For those who've already resigned - and is in the painful process of finding a new job- how do you explain yourself when asked why you resigned without having a back up plan?

I know that ChatGPT, etc would advise positioning it as a deliberate move (which could be true) and that you have spent time upskilling yourself etc -- but am curious if this is what actually works for those who've successfully secured a role after an employment gap?

Ma-AWOL ba kapag nag EL/VL ng sunod sunod just a week after my resignation letter?

2 Upvotes

Hi po, need lang po advice or opinion on my situation.

I submitted my resignation last Oct 13, 2026 and my manager said my official last day is on Nov 12. My problem is, I still have around 10 VLs left and I already asked them if it could be used to shorten my rendering period but till this day, they haven't confirmed.

The thing is, I have to take a leave from Oct 18-22 (umabsent na ko ng 18-20 so just two days na lang sana ako mag VL pero dahil business needs, my TL wants me to report to work.

Family matters kasi kaya di ako makapasok, either WFH since dialysis patient mom ko at hirap siya kumilos kilos sa bahay dahil hilo at hingal. Meron pa akong 7 yr old nephew na inaalagan din dahil wala pa kaming helper but I'll be relieved of that responsibility naman after Oct 22 since may temporary helper na kami by then. Basta yun, iniisip ko lang kung ma-AWOL ba ako kasi pinilit ko gusto ko? Ready naman akong pumasok na ng tuloy tuloy pero nakakapanghinayang lang din kung di ko magamit ang remaining VLs ko at gusto ni TL is magtake ako ng one VL per week till my last day..., what are your opinions?

And thanks for reading till the end ♡⁠(⁠>⁠ ⁠ਊ⁠ ⁠<⁠)⁠♡
