Talk to him first, but I'm sure he'll ultimately want it in writing for records purposes. Be honest, and tell him you may possibly want to come back in the future, just that you have a family problem, personal time needed, whatever. Do not do not say anything negative about the job, because you need to leave on the upmost note. Great chance is your boss will need to hire someone to replace you, so if you want to come back you need to be remembered as worth possibly ruffling the work flow for. |

Lola,
It is always tough to quit a job especially when you like it and the people working there. You should put it in writing (much easier to organize your thoughts and not get emotional). Then after giving your notice you can speak about specifics if you want to. You never want to burn bridges so i am proud of you for doing things the right way! |

Put in in writing stating what a pleasure it has been to be able to grow with the company and that you have enjoyed your time there and look forward to working with them in the future. Leave the doors open, Don't burn bridges. Even though you will put it in writting, be sure to keep a copy for your records and talk to them personally as well, perhap as you hand them you notice. Be sure to date the letter and state the last day you intend to work. Two weeks is the normal, unless your profession ot office requires more or less. As you porepare to leave be sure to finish al Projects that you can and leave on a good Note. Last Day, Say good bye, as you leave, clear your desk of all personal items and be professional. Do not take Office Items with you. The next person will need them. |

In writing to your boss first. Ask for a meeting, discuss that you are leaving, that it's been wonderful, etc. and then give him the written notice. This will keep your relationship businesslike and professional. |

I always say its best to put a 2 weeks notice in writing and way more professional. Since it is a close knit organization, you do want to make it on a more personal level. You want to express your extreme gratitude to the company and its management for giving you the opportunity to work for their company and for everything they have done for you. You fill your letter with compliments to the company and thanks for the way they have treated you. I would also mention that you want to be considered if you find yourself in a position that you want to work for them again. The best way to make a good impression and thank them for the opportunity they have given you and secure a good bridge that you may want to cross again is to remain a good employee and do your best even during your last two weeks. Too many people put their two weeks notice in and then slack off and stop caring about their job since they are leaving. Too many people burn bridges that they may want to cross again later and live to regret it. |

Put it in writing (most need it in writing anyway) but confront him about it in person before handing in the official notice. Thank him for the opportunities he gave you. |

I am a manger in a successful business. I always appreciate openness and honesty. Go to your manager with a letter stating your resignation and verbally let him know you are leaving. ALWAYS thank them for the opportunity and NEVER burn your bridges. |

Do both, tell you Boss quietly that you wish to leave, then in conservation say to him 'would you like my resignation in writing' he'll either say yes or no, but at least you'll be ready with it if that's what hre requires |

You should put it in writing, remembering to thank your employer for allowing you the experience and knowledge you have gained working for him/her. |

Talk to him in person (you'll still want something in writing for records purpose, but talk to him in person as well). If you have a good relationship with him, then he will expect that of you, and respect you more for it.
I know most people nowadays don't care to ever give notice, seeing as most companies don't give the same courtesy when letting someone go.
"When it's to the company's advantage from a pay and benefits standpoint, they want people to leave immediately. When an individual leaves, they want them to give "adequate" notice so the company isn't left in a lurch. In today's society, you can't have it both ways." ~ James Carlini (Professor at Northwestern University)
However, if this is a situation, as you explained, where it is a small office and people respect each other and are "close knit" (and there is a possibility of re-hire), then you want to be as professional as you can and speak to him in person. |
