Resignations are common in the professional world, but some stand out for their honesty and humor. Recently, an unusual resignation email from an employee, Rahul Bairwa (company name undisclosed), caught the internet’s attention for its candid reasoning.

In his resignation letter, Rahul cited his inability to afford the iQ00 13, priced at Rs51,999, due to his stagnant salary as the reason for leaving. A screenshot of the email, shared by a Delhi-based entrepreneur on the social media platform X, has since gone viral.

The email, titled "Resignation Letter," humorously laments the lack of a salary hike after two years of hard work. Rahul wrote: 

“Dear HR, After two wonderful years of dedication and hard work, it seems my salary has remained as frozen as my hopes for an increment. I really wanted to Pre-book iQ00 13 at just 51,999 on 5th December but with this salary it's not possible. I'm worried how will my career move fast, if I don't have enough salary to buy fastest phone in India? Therefore, I've decided it's time to seek opportunities where growth isn't just a buzzword. My last working day will be 04 December 2024, and I'll ensure a smooth handover. Thank you for the experience and all the memories. Sincerely, XXX.”
