Office Etiquette

Once you have resigned say good-bye to your co-workers. This squashes speculation that you were asked to leave. Make sure you tell them that you had a positive experience working with them. You never know if that slow-typing secretary will go back to school and someday be your boss. Stranger things have happened.
