Are you ready to resign from your job? many americans are taking control of their professional lives by finding new opportunities that are a better fit for their skillsets and goals.
LAS VEGAS – Nazem Kadri scored with 41 seconds remaining in the third period, lifting the Colorado Avalanche to a 3-2 win over the Vegas Golden Knights on Tuesday night.
Moments after Marc-Andre Fleury stopped Mikko Rantanen’s backhand with 45.3 seconds left, the Avalanche got the better end of a faceoff from the right circle, eventually setting up Kadri, who was able to lift a loose puck into the net for his second game-winner of the season.
Nathan MacKinnon and Brandon Saad also scored for the Avalanche. Philip Grubauer stopped 27 shots.
Max Pacioretty and Jonathan Marchessault scored for the Golden Knights. Fleury made 22 saves.
The teams split the first two of four games during a nine-day stretch, with the third scheduled for Lake Tahoe on Saturday in an outdoor setting.
Despite suffering just its third loss in regulation, Vegas (10-3-1) remained in first place in the West Division with 21 points. Colorado (8-4-1) is in third place
with 17 points.
MacKinnon scored just his second career goal in 10 games against Golden Knights, his first inside Vegas’ T-Mobile Arena, when he one-timed Mikko Rantanen’s pass to the slot past Fleury.
As they did in the first of the teams’ four games, a 1-0 loss on Sunday, the Avalanche looked to be the more efficient team at both ends, controlling the tempo and outshooting the Knights 9-7 in the first period, even after going the final 6:03 without a shot.
Vegas, meanwhile, struggled to find its rhythm, with chemistry being disrupted by untimely penalties and skating six of the first 20 minutes short-handed.
Pacioretty, who scored Vegas’ lone goal in the first meeting, tied the game from his familiar place on the ice, firing a wrist shot from the top of the right
circle. It was the fifth time in its last eight games Vegas scored at least one power-play goal.
Saad answered 63 seconds later, skating in front of the crease from the bottom of the left circle and slipping a backhand through Fleury’s pads to give Colorado a one-goal lead again.
With Grubauer flat on his stomach and facing the post, Marchessault knotted the game at 2-all in the third period, when he flipped a backhand through three Avalanche players to the top of the net. It was only the second 5-on-5 goal for Vegas over a whopping 229 minutes, 53 seconds, spanning five games.
WHAT’S NEXT
The teams play the third of their four-game set at Lake Tahoe on Saturday, before playing the finale in Denver on Feb. 22.
A resignation letter is a document that notifies your employer that you are officially leaving your job. It formalizes your departure on paper. It’s a good idea to work closely with your human resources department on any additional items that you may need to produce during your resignation process.
Let’s focus on the resignation letter and how to build an effective one.
High-Level Tips According to the job search experts at Monster, a resignation letter should include the following:
• A statement of intent that you will be leaving your job.
• The name of your official staff position.
• The date of your last day on the job.
• Gratitude to your employer for hiring you.
• A highlight of your time there.
• An offer to train your replacement.
• Well wishes for the future of the company.
• Your contact info.
What to Include
When you resign from your job, it’s important to keep your exit as professional as possible. Human resources experts recommend submitting an official letter of recommendation versus only giving verbal notice. This keeps your resignation plan documented and gives both sides clarity on next steps.
Give Notice: Give adequate notice to your employer by giving them a specific day you plan on leaving the company. Your letter should start with the fact that you’re resigning, followed by your timeline. This will give your employer plenty of notice to adjust its staffing plan ahead of your exit.
Offer Assistance: If you’re giving enough notice to your employer — and your exit is amicable on both sides — you may be able to help them with their transition process. You can do your company a favor by training any possible replacements or documenting specific roles and responsibilities of your job.
Contact Information: Include your personal contact information in your letter to give your employer an easy way to get in touch with you once you exit. Make sure to include cell phone number and email address, along with any other information they may not have on file.
What to Avoid Remember that your employer will likely keep your resignation letter as a reference document. They may even pull it out if a future employer calls them for a recommendation.
Here are some additional things to avoid in your resignation letter, according to the global human resource consulting firm, Robert Half:
• Don’t explain why you are leaving.
• Don’t vent about the downsides of the job, your coworkers or the company.
• Don’t brag about what you’re doing next.
• Don’t send an unedited letter with errors.
• Stick to the basics, no more than one page.
Keep the tone positive and professional, and your resignation letter will serve its purpose. If you have trouble communicating your message, reach out to a local branding specialist in your area to help put together a strong, quality letter. You can also perform an online search to find samples that may fit your needs.
