I recently found a better job and want to put in my 2 weeks at my current job. I've been working for the company for a little over a year. I want to tell my manager in person that I'd like to resign then afterward email it in writing. I would like to be as polite as possible because I will need to use them as a reference for my new job. Does anyone have any prompts or tips for putting in 2 weeks? This would be my first time resigning. Thank you.
The Panera where I used to work…
This happened about a month ago. I'm not going to give the name of the company because I know one of the owners is on Reddit and I haven't gotten everything I was promised on my last day, but it's an offroad accessory manufacturer in Portage Michigan.

I'm sick and tired of people saying “life's an adventure! you'll find what you love”/”trust me bro, God has a plan for us all”/”it's all a matter of perspective, focus on the positive!”. No. Only difference between you and me, is that I do not romanticise suffering and pain. I need a job. I'm willing to go to college, then a masters, but I need a well-paying job, that doesn't make my life hell, than it already is.
Dealing with burnout
Lately I’ve been so burnt out with work politics and bs. A few weeks ago I almost got written up for no reason and my boss is a snake. Some of my coworkers get on my last damn nerves and it’s hard to be fake and pretend to want to work around them. Mentally I just don’t give a fukc I hate being at work. Obviously I need this job for money and benefits . What can I do to help me through this and still stay professional? Looking for another job is not an option at this time. Tbh, am tired of working period. It’s the same shit different place of employment to me at this point.
