A job resignation is seen as formal and professional.  Rarely are they ill-mannered as many of us don’t want to burn bridges.  A well-written letter to your manager about your leave should be short and sweet. Well, it looks like Neil Berrett literally did just that with his resignation letter.  He baked his employer a resignation cake.

The cake states the following:

“Dear Mr. Bowers – During the past three years, my tenure at the Hunters Point Naval Shipyard has been nothing short of pure excitement, joy and whim.

“However, I have decided to spend more time with my family and attend to health issues that have recently arisen. I am proud to have been part of such an outstanding team and I wish this organization only the
finest in future endeavors.

“Please accept this cake as notification that I am leaving my position with NWT on March 27. Sincerely, W. Neil Berrett”.

Hunters Point Naval Shipyard might have lost a great employee, but at least the employees can drown their sorrows in cake.
