She Handed Her Boss A Sealed Resignation Letter, B…

I explained the situation carefully. I told her when I had submitted my resignation. I explained that my notice period had expired.

I said I needed written confirmation of my final date and instructions for returning company property. Diane’s eyes flicked toward the closed door. “He told us you’re just seeking attention,” she whispered.

My hands were folded in my lap. I kept them there. “Who told you that?”

She looked at the table.

“Reginald.”

I waited. “His exact instructions were to ignore her completely.”

The words landed with a quiet force. Ignore her completely.
