I bet you also think it takes effort to write the same boilerplate resignation letter/good bye letter. I’ve used the same two since 2012 across 5 jobs.

  There's a big difference: no one gives a shit about how authentic a resignation letter is. A thank you note, especially to a friend? Thoughtfulness and authenticity matter there. A lot.

      Who the hell gets a greeting card and doesn't add their own handwritten note? Especially for something that actually matters?
