Knocking, I cleared my throat as I stepped into the room. I IMMEDIATELY PULLED out the folder of ideas I was working on last week and made my way to his office. Please don’t share this email with anyone who is not a B-level or C-level employee. This would be for the first session regarding the Autumn Promotional Campaign we’re running next year, so please let me know if you have any. Just letting you know that I’m in need of some hosting ideas for a conference I want to hold for some executive friends this month. I had yet to touch any of them, and I wanted to make it to the four-week mark before I even looked at one of the attached cards, but with another blank afternoon, I was tempted to cave.īefore I could open the closest package, an email from my CEO popped onto the screen. Leaning back in my chair, I stared at the mountain of delivered gifts that was sitting in my corner. My calendar was empty, my task list was complete, and most of the staff was attending a training session that would keep them busy for the rest of the day.

And stay tuned for the next New York Boss story! | My next release is Forget You, Ethan.I NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD see the day when I would miss working for Preston, but this morning was making me wonder if I should’ve stayed a little while longer. If you enjoyed this office romance, be sure to read: Then again, I thought that was the case until he called me late last night with an emergency proposition… That letter was rejected with his sexy, trademark smirk and an “I highly suggest you read the fine print of your contract…”Īnd now I’ve realized that unless I fake my death, poison him, or find a way to renegotiate my impossible contract, I’m stuck working under one of the cockiest and most ruthless bosses in New York. That’s the version of my two weeks’ notice I should’ve sent to my boss, because the more professional version–the one where I said I was “grateful for all the opportunities,” and “honored by all the rewarding experiences” over the years? I wish his next executive assistant all the luck in the world (she’ll need it) and if my boss should need me to do anything over the next two weeks, kindly tell him that he can do it goddamn self… This was a VERY EASY decision to make, as the past two years have been utterly miserable. I am writing this letter to formally announce my resignation from Parker International (& the arrogant, condescending CEO) effective two weeks from today.
