Resignation Day
Thursday the 12th May 2007.The day dawned that I had been dreading since even before I arrived: The day I was to hand in my official notice of leaving!!!
I had written out my letter in the week, stating my appreciation for the opportunities I had had and what a joy it had been working at such a wonderful establishment, but then stated my regret that I had to leave due to a job offer back in England that I simply couldn't turn down. I feel like a dreadful person lying, but I also know that this is what I always knew I had to do and I could think of no other way out of it. This is a far more valid excuse as to why I am leaving rather than, I am off travelling!!
So I dropped the letter on Mr Kim's desk, and darted into my classroom, so that he could read it at his own leisure and to give him time to think. When my class was over I approached him to talk about the issue. At first he was saying that “it is not possible for me to leave” then after a long talk he eventually said that it was ok and he could understand, but that I had to find a good replacement for me. To which I agreed. Just two days later he decided to employ the “fat” guy that he had refused to employ to replace Dave, so that is a big relief for me!
