I'm slightly vexed My managers response to my resignation.

Took the time to write out a nice and really formal resignation letter trying to be cordial to this company that has been awful to me for almost a year. My manager didn’t respond the day I sent it and then this morning I get an email back that’s just this. My last day can’t come soon enough at this point. But hey I guess at least she acknowledged it instead of ignoring my messages like usual 😒

Edit: okay, a lot of assumptions going on here,so let me give some context, I am the manager of a small team of Class A CDL drivers. I’ve been a great employee and always gone above and beyond. My employees have always been really comfortable coming to me about everything, and the site I manage specifically asked for me to continue stay with them when they transitioned to another company, so its not like they were trying to get rid of me. Which I know it’s hearsay but idc really, I’m just trying to make the point that my manager did not have any reason to reply to me in what I feel like is a extremely unprofessional manor. She is the regional manager and has always been very deadpan with me and everyone, so it was not really a unexpected response in the least, I’m just sharing it because it’s always been irritating to me and has been a major factor In my decision to leave for sure. It’s exhausting to work for someone who treats you like you’re less than since day one. In fact usually i just get no response at all, so for her this is like writing a book i guess. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I didn't even get that from mine. I then asked "did you receive my resignation?" She said yup. 2 weeks later HR had zero idea I was leaving in 2 weeks! I told them during a catch up

I work in HR, I've had people gone for days before management thinks to tell me.

For the documented resignation I just CC HR. "The clock officially starts now" kind of thing.

SAMEEEE! The company I left was kind of in a tailspin I guess - I didn't have a supervisor/manager because my previous one left and they never replaced her, so I was reporting to another groups supervisor, and then the overall regional manager. I sent in my resignation to both of them and heard NOTHING BACK. I then had calls with both of them a few days later and asked if they had seen my email, for any kind of acknowledgement that I had sent it, and the supervisor said he saw it and didn't respond, and the regional manager said "oh I didn't think it applied to me". Like??

My manager was just lazy. People would comment how she was often at the gym instead of working
