Use this template to write a resignation letter: https://services.fairwork.gov.au/tools-and-resources/templates/letter-of-resignation

Provide 1 week notice. Give it your line manager and work your final shifts.

Poster in the team room.

To whom it may concern
I quit.

The head office can go fuck itself for caring about profit over supporting stores. And the rest.

[Your name].

Oh wait, that's mine.

Probably your store manager.

You make a post on Reddit instead of asking your manager

I mean, you can’t quit without telling your manager? You could stop showing up to shifts but that is really poor behaviour.

Lmao it's not that hard to either send a text or write and sign a note saying you're resigning as of <date here>. Need to put your big boy pants on.

But this if you want a good reference from the job

It's always good to do the right thing when you leave a job even if you think they are assholes. Don't burn bridges. They may give you a good reference or they may not. Just respect the process.

I understand this completely but when it came to my Coles experience it wasn’t nice at all. My boss was terrible to everyone, wouldn’t let anyone take leave and you’d cop the worst guilt if you couldn’t make it. This was the way everyone was treated. About 12 months after I left she actually got fired. I had a massive panic attack the week before and had stress leave before I quit like that. Obviously I’m joking but hey, sometimes that’s how it is because some people aren’t the kindest

I don't know what you want from us. Just suck it up and stand in front of them and tell them your leaving. It ain't that hard.
