Home Treasure

I guess at some point in our lives, we’ve all been there. Sam Baines was dissatisfied with his work and realized he didn’t yet qualify for the job he really wanted. He came to the decision that the best thing to do was to leave his call centre job in Sheffield, South Yorkshire to further his education. He needed to give written notice six weeks prior to leaving. That’s where Sam decided to get creative. He let management know his intentions with a bereavement card. He found a lovely white card with gold lettering that said, “So very sorry for your loss. Thinking of you at this difficult time.” With a black pen in tidy handwriting, he added, “My last day of work is the 28th July. Love, Sam.” Sam’s coworker Hannah was so tickled with his joke she posted a photo of the card on Twitter. Let’s hope Sam’s boss has a good sense of humour, too.
