Words of gratitude to colleagues upon dismissal - cool verses

I lived in a team for a long time -
I'm leaving on the positive!
If there are arms, legs -
So there will be something to eat!
Yes, and I saved up money,
I spent a lot of energy here,
So tired that there is no urine
I'm leaving! Hello to all of you!

I'm leaving you guys

And not one corporate party.

I've always been rescued smartly
From claims "on the carpet."
Thank you for everything, colleagues,
You have become dear to me.

Well, colleagues, you still have to work hard,
Work tirelessly here,
For days to hunch back, puff,
Not noticing anything around.
And now I will meet all the winds
I fly into the wild with an arrow fired -
Now I manage myself,
Adventure-ready hero!

Everyone is in a good mood today -
The last day is working for me.
Everyone is waiting with joyful excitement
When will I leave everyone alone.
And I am sad from the general joy.
I hope that later the people will understand
That I was kind to them, after all, I was the boss,
When to replace me - another will come.

Gratitude to colleagues from the quitting employee - comic prose

Glorious representatives of my now former team! I quit tomorrow! Do you think I'm worried? Not at all ... Happy as a new penny! Can you imagine - freedom is waiting for your colleague! And also laziness, sleep and TV! Hooray!

Today I say goodbye to you, my dear colleagues. I want to thank you for your kind jokes, hundreds of cups of coffee drunk together, funny "smoke breaks", useful tips and "compromising evidence" in the form of photos and videos from our joint holidays. I wish you to stay happily, remember me only with a smile, do not hold any grudge and resentment. I love and respect you all and will miss you very much.

Colleagues, it was easy and pleasant to work with you - I am one hundred percent satisfied! But, as you know, a fish is looking for where they feed, and a person - where they pay more, and as a human being you can understand my leaving. It's not easy for me to part with you, but what prevents us from communicating in the vibeer, texting in social networks, and liking each other? In general, the effect of full presence, so that global changes are not planned.

I see, dear colleagues, with what impatience you await my departure. Be patient a little. Yes, I was a thorn in the team that haunted anyone. But I think you will miss me. Who will now tell you jokes, borrow rubles until payday, shoot cigarettes and play pranks on the first of April? In the meantime, goodbye, colleagues, miss you, call. Thank you for everything, do not remember it dashingly.

Each employee of a large or small company over the years of work grows overgrown with connections in the team, becomes a useful and sometimes irreplaceable member in a well-coordinated personnel mechanism. All of this requires compliance with the rules of corporate ethics from the company, promotion or when moving to another branch. One of the rules in such cases is to draw up a corporate farewell letter for the team and management.

The tradition of writing farewell letters is widespread in European countries. V large organizations each employee performs specific functions and employees from many other departments interact with him. In such cases, the letter will allow you to show respect, notify other employees of your departure and transfer business contacts so that there is no downtime.

A corporate farewell letter will be required if an employee leaves the company or department in which he worked for a long time or permanently. An official farewell letter is drawn up in the following cases:

• dismissal from the company
• promotion to a managerial position
• moving to a branch in another city
• retirement

The longer an employee has worked in a team, the more established contacts remain in the old place of work and, of course, it is simply impolite to leave simply and quietly in this case. A farewell letter is the best format for saying goodbye and notifying employees that a particular employee is leaving and a new specialist is taking his place.

Is it necessary to write such a letter at your workplace

A farewell letter to colleagues is a formal method of farewell and is mostly designed for large companies with a large number of employees and various departments, where not all employees have the opportunity for personal acquaintance.

In such cases, the letter is published on a corporate blog, posted on a bulletin board, or read out on general meeting, depending on and the reason for leaving.

For small offices and companies where no more than 10-20 people work, a farewell letter is optional and is used rather as a formality at parting, remaining as a keepsake for employees. In a small team, you can independently say goodbye to each employee or arrange a farewell party.

In general, it all depends on the preferences and wishes of the quitting employee, the traditions of the team, the presence or absence of the practice of writing farewell letters.

Reasons for writing a message

Writing a corporate farewell letter has several main goals:

• Express gratitude to colleagues with whom I had a chance to work for a long time and who have rightfully become friends and acquaintances
• Notify employees of other departments that you are leaving your position and do not officially work in the company or do not deal with the affairs of your department, having gone for a promotion
• Notify the team that after you there is a receiver, which you can contact on work questions
• Leave the coordinates, work phone number and mail of the receiver to simplify communication in the team
• Thank the management for the opportunity to work in the company and for the experience gained in the chosen profession

A farewell corporate letter can be considered a banal act of politeness, in which an employee thanks everyone and expresses gratitude to the team for the time they work together. But it's not just about sentimental feelings. In an era of corporate ethics, letters of recommendation, and reputational checks at previous jobs, it is imperative to leave with a good track record. That is why it is necessary to show politeness and discretion, because companies working in related fields contact one way or another, old connections and good reviews will not interfere with a new place of work.

Rules for writing farewell letters upon dismissal

A goodbye message should be short, succinct, and positive.

If you work for a company with several hundred employees, it makes no sense to write one long message. First, reading it will take people away. employed... Secondly, employees you don't know much won't read a long message without even knowing the person who wrote it. So general letter should contain a number of official theses and gratitude to the team and management.

A longer message can be written for employees in your department or for those with whom you have a warmer relationship. Also in this letter you can show off eloquence, add a little humor, making the message friendly, not formal. A letter for acquaintances can be sent to the personal mail of those employees whom you know.

Parsing a farewell letter point by point

Do I need to send a farewell letter to my boss?

Of course, this largely depends on the personal and professional relationships that have developed with the management. But following the rules of corporate ethics, it is still necessary to send a letter to your boss.

A letter of gratitude will allow you to create a last positive impression, which in the future can be a plus. You may need a letter of recommendation from your manager or your boss HR department the new company will try to contact the boss from your previous job.

Remember that a farewell letter is a tribute to the team and an opportunity to strengthen your reputation in the area where you work.

Every year the rules of corporate ethics are more and more closely included in the life of companies and business organizations of the Russian Federation. The tradition of farewell messages has taken root and has become an integral part of large corporations, midsize and small companies, where they value employees and strive to create.

Write your question in the form below

Termination labor relations- it's not just a design necessary documents... Relationships - they are for that and relationships that provide for a certain connection of a personal nature. When leaving, politely saying "goodbye" is a sign of good form. But how can this be done in big company, especially if the position of the resigning person was related not to one department, but to the enterprise as a whole?

In Western corporations, writing this kind of farewell letter to remaining colleagues by email or internal mail has long been general rule... It is convenient: there is no need to repeat the same thing many times, to listen to the duty answers, but attention and good upbringing are shown, collegial ties are preserved. Why not introduce this way of saying goodbye to colleagues here?

Farewell letter structure

It is not quite business document, and its compilation is optional. But a logical presentation will be another plus to a good memory of you. Include in your letter:

• a personal appeal to the addressee is a must in order to emphasize individual attention, and just nice;
• an indication of the full name and position that the outgoing person leaves - it is quite possible, especially in large firms, that not everyone knows the employee by name, although they often encounter him at work;
• the reason for leaving the job - not everyone is aware of the future dismissal, and may be surprised at the sudden loss;
• It is not necessary to indicate the reason for leaving, but if there is no secret and unpleasant moments in this, why not;
• it is permissible to recommend a future successor (this is also not a mandatory item);
• a few pleasant words and compliments to the place of work or to a specific colleague - it is important to leave a positive impression upon reading the letter;
• your contact information - after all, maintaining connections is another important function of a farewell letter.

What should not be written in any case

1. If you are leaving because of a conflict, you should not write it in the letter. It is especially dangerous to make hints - innuendo generates the worst conjectures.
2. Criticism of colleagues or company policy - no need to wave your fists after a fight.
3. The transition to personalities is never appropriate anywhere, especially in the trail left behind.
4. Too much emotion will only weigh down the letter and tire the reader.

The text of the letter does not have to be formal, it is quite acceptable to compose a letter with humorous overtones, of course, without crossing certain boundaries of delicacy.
