Man's hilarious resignation letter to HR breaks the internet, catch details

It is a resignation like no other !!!

In his email addressed to the HR department, Rahul wrote:

“Dear HR, After two wonderful years of dedication and hard work, it seems my salary has remained as frozen as my hopes for an increment. I really wanted to Pre-book iQOO 13 at just 51,999 on 5th December but with this salary, it’s not possible.”

With a mix of humor and honesty, Rahul announced his last working day would be December 4, 2024, assuring a smooth transition and expressing gratitude for the memories he made during his tenure.

Here’s how the internet reacts with laughter and speculation

The resignation letter resonated with many, sparking a flood of comments on social media. Some users empathized with Rahul’s situation, while others suspected the email might be part of a clever marketing campaign by iQOO, the smartphone brand.

One user humorously suggested, “Better give him that phone and keep him.”

Another quipped, “Looks like iqoo marketing email.”

However, not all responses were lighthearted. One user offered a detailed analysis of why the salary might not have increased:

“It is not clear if your company made a gradual increase in profits when you were in the company. If no hike in salary, it means the company is not in profit or growth is standstill. Or, your ratings may not be as per the company’s expectations. Or, company has too many partners, hence not able to decide. Please take proper feedback from different sources before joining any other company.”
