Back story: everyone at the company works from home right now besides me and the office manager. Since I've started working there I made an eBay store which has made them almost 20k in recouperated costs (old computer parts we have no use for anymore). A couple weeks ago they gave me a $1.50 raise which honestly was kind of insulting given my value to the company. I want to mention this in my letter but I don't know how to bring it up. This is what I have so far
“Hey I overslept this morning but I thought really hard about it and I'm going to resign. My schedule right now Monday-Friday is I wake up at 6am to get ready and leave my house by 7:15 to make it in on time. Then at 5 when I'm off I don't get home until 5:45 if I'm lucky with all the traffic. That's almost 12 hours spent for work everyday and my classes right after that only give me an hour at most(if I want to get 8 hours of sleep) to eat, do homework, and try to have a social life. An hour isn't enough so almost every night I'm only getting 4-5 hours of sleep and my weekends are spent catching up on things I can't do during the week and preparing for the coming week. The amount of time and work I have to put in isn't worth what I'm getting paid especially since the eBay store I've started since beginning there has made almost $20k. I hope you understand. I can come by on Friday or Monday morning to bring back my laptop. “
