Resignation Letter

07. Dec, 2007

My chacha is a banker. A while ago, he asked me to write a resignation letter for him. I decided it had been too long since I’d gotten my clock cleaned by him. So I sent him the following and lay low for a few days. I vaguely remember a ticked off voicemail from him the next morning….

Dear …,

You may not remember me – I’m the guy who works his rear end off in the mall road branch of x Bank. I’ve been here for so many years that I think I’ve entered my agla janam, so to speak. I’ve been reincarnated as a banker yet again, and definitely at the wrong damn bank.

To cut a long story short, sir, you stink as a manager. I’ve seen corruption in my day, and at times, I’ve been mighty corrupt myself, but you are so corrupt that I hear Zardari has a poster of you up on his wall. In fact, you are so corrupt that the angel on your right shoulder has fallen asleep from sheer boredom. Anyhow, this letter is not meant to prove what a jackass you are. That’s something that’s been proven already. This letter is basically a letter of resignation.

So I’m leaving you and this excuse-for-a-bank. I know without me, this bank will plummet like a plane out of fuel. I think I might even end your misery, and just ask some of my partners-in-crime to bomb the hell out of your mall road branch (after I’ve cleared my stuff out…heheh).

If you want, you can remove my name from the payroll.

Sincerely,

…..

P.S., him and I are good friends, so it’s all good :)

    Haha!!! This was good. You are good with humor. Explore it seriously.

    Also, you better comment on Daydream of a Wanderer tomorrow (as well as Crevices).

    People seem to have a very dry reception attitude toward Crevices so I am curious about what you have to say.

    Lol! your humour really is nice. I’m suposing your chacha didn’t give in this resignation. Waisay it would’ve been such a slap in the “it-is-respectfully-stated” kinda writing’s face. So completely out of the box.

    Thanks! He definitely did not send this version – I had to make him a formal one after this, but I kinda wish he’d sent it. What is the worse that could’ve happened? Him getting fired? That’s what he wanted anyway!

    Ooty: I beg to differ man – from what I remember from a couple of years ago in isloo, you had a special thing for banks :P . Didn’t u want to be a banker?
