I see. Now should I give a letter to my store manager or produce manager where I have been working?
Give it to your store manager
I recently quit after 4 months or so of telling them I was to return casual (just wanted that 5% off for a couple more months),
get it over and done with quickly or you will get some narky HR bitch ring you up and threaten to terminate your employment under 'abandonment of duties' (which is technically incorrect, unless they give you duties to perform and you don't show up, but that's their scare tactic).
If you want, use my resignation letter as a template, apart from the one weeks notice, which I gave by agreement with HR (it needs to be two or more depending on years of service), the resignation is correct and in line with the Woolworths NSW Enterprise Bargaining agreement. Please note that you
must give notice of your resignation or the company may legally withold monies in lieu of notice. Ask for a certificate of service too, as the company doesn't give out references officially.
If you run into any troubles with it, let me know, I spent over a year as a union delegate, and currently still work for unions, so if you have any workplace issue relating to woolies, I've heard it, drop me a pm and I'll get back to you.
Here is my letter:
19 November 2008
The Store Manager
Woolworths Cxxxxx
Cnr Pxxxx and xxxxx Street
