Sometimes we say that we know someone that’s been “run out of their job.” But, the legal terminology we should use is that the person was a possible victim of “constructive termination.” So, I want to take a quick look at the two types of termination, actual and constructive.Actual TerminationWhen you are actually fired by your employer, you are notified in writing or verbally that they
Usually, the normal resignation notice ranges between 1 to 3 months. If you were to leave earlier than the notice, then you will have to pay back salary in lieu.

If the polls are any indication, I don't know who more than half of you are anymore. I do know something terrible has happened, and that you're really not fellow Americans any longer.I'll cut right to the chase here: I quit.

Mary J. Blige sang it best, when she blurted out…No More Drama! The same is true with resignation letters. If you're resigning because of race-based discrimination, harassment, and/or retaliation (constructive termination), you've probably already had more drama than you can stand. So, try not to be highly emotional, when you’re writing your resignation letter! Yes, you may be justified in being upset or angry, etc. However, those legitimate emotions can be twisted by your employer and can be used against you in the future. Remember, your official resignation is in writing. Therefore, it can come back to haunt you. So, choose your words carefully. Here are some tips:--don’t forget to include the effective date of your resignation;--give 2 weeks notice—unless there are extenuating c

Pressure has mounted on FIA president Max Mosley after it was revealed that Formula One boss Bernie Ecclestone wants him to resign. Mosley was caught in a compromising position during a Nazi sex romp (SN reported) but has refused to stand down.So far, the calls have been ineffectual, but Bernie Ecclestone adding his name to a letter requesting Mosley's resignation could have some influence. Ecclestone is the vice-president of the FIA, and has worked side-by-side with Mosley for many years.Ecclestone has no desire to take up the presidency, instead telling F1 team bosses the FIA would hire Ferrari's Jean Todt if he wanted the position.

Amid the poor result Sunday at the Nou Camp, Barcelona club members
and fans showed their displeasure with president Joan Laporta. In the
dying minutes of thegame, fans became waving white towels symbolizing the members' request for Laporta to step down.
This act did not occur since 2003 and could symbolize the inevitable
downfall of one of the most successful teams of the past few years. Barcelona
dominated Getafe, but Roberto Abbondanzieri and his best friends- the
posts- exacerbated the situation for the culé faithful. The scoreless
draw was part of the reason for the fans' frustration. They once again
had a chance to get closer to Real Madrid, but for a fourth time this
year failed to do so. Prior to the game Laporta spoke to the various fan affili

Mr. Provost, I beg leave to resign the Fellowship of Worcester College®, to which I was elected in the year 1826. This step I am compelled to take because I can no longer with a good conscience continue a Minister or a Member of the Established Church. After great and numerous trials of mind, I am, as I trust, led by the hand of God thus to separate myself from that corrupt and worldly system, called the Church of England. Her errors and corruptions, as well as her utter contrariety to a Gospel Church as revealed in the New Testament, have been for two or three years gradually opening upon my mind. But though I have thus slowly and by degrees obtained light from above to see the Established Church somewhat in her true colors, it is, I confess, only but very lately that the sin of r
Well Abdullah Ahmad Badawi, I have to respect your persistence. Things don’t look good for you but you insist on soldiering on. I’m sure you are well aware that many perceive your persistence as plain stubbornness.Then again, I don’t think it would be right for you to quit even though many wanted you to do so. By leaving your UMNO or Barisan Nasional in a state of defeat, you will be remembered as the man who messed up what was once a great empire. I’m sure you do not wish to remembered as a failure, I guess this is why you chose to stay on as Prime Minister and Chairman of Barisan Nasional.Good luck Abdullah Ahmad Badawi!

By Fr. Ranhilio Callangan Aquino, Dean, Graduate School of Law, San Beda College (Mendiola) I AM not an apologist for President Arroyo. I have received no favors from her. I believe that she is a competent president and I also believe in the Rule of Law, no matter that the law may, in several respects, be infirm. And by the precepts of the Rule of Law to which I adhere, pressuring the President into resigning by swaying public opinion away from her and alienating the allegiance of the military is anathema. My own reflections on the moral dimensions of the problems confirm me in the legal position I have so far taken. 1. I have followed with keen attention the proceedings in the Senate. Joey de Venecia’s testimony clearly implicates the First Gentleman. Under the current legal doctrine

Overthrown by RebelsFinlay Scott has exceeded himself again. The man has an LLB and is the Chief Executive of the General Medical Council. Having ruled it like stalin or the witchfinder general, he continues to embarass himself in the public forum. Recently, he opened his trap on Radio 4 and we all thought he would not embarass the medical profession again but here he is in the Times again. This is the problem, he doesn't know when to keep his mouth shut. Finlay though has been dying to keep the public sweet since the days he kept Shipman on the register for an age so that he could go on killing patient after patient in Hyde. Anyway, back to this Times letter. The letter was a bit like Andrex - you always wonder what dogs do with loo paper - its a bit like wondering what Finlay is doing in GMC Towers.

The “Short and Sweet” Version
I did it! I submitted my notice to my boss at work Monday morning. It was hard, though after I got it all out, I felt a HUGE sense of relief. I agreed to stay on a few days longer than initially planned, through November 21 (the day before Thanksgiving). My boss was both surprised and supportive. He said his boss, peer, and the HR VP were all happy for me. “You’re only young once,” he said. It should start to become public knowledge in the next few days.

Dana White – No, I wasn’t surprised. I met with Randy several weeks ago and he said that the only thing he had left to prove in his career and the only challenge left out there for him was Fedor…
So this wasn’t a surprise, but were you at least surprised at the way he went about it, via fax?
DW – He is shooting a movie right now in South Africa, but yes, I am very surprised by the way he did it. I consider Randy Couture a friend and still do. He hooked up with some Hollywood agent that I bitch slapped about a month ago, and these Hollywood agents are parasites, so unfortunately this guy is probably

Why is it that America has such a difficult time keeping out leader(s) in check? With our dual presidents running amok - there is apparently nothing our Congress is capable of doing.

Union leaders and legislators representing Minnesota's Iron Range called for the resignation of the Minnesota Health Commissioner Wednesday, after learning that she had delayed-for at least a year-informing the public about the discovery of 35 more cases of mesothelioma among Iron Range mine workers. The Health Department had discovered in March 2006 another 35 cases of mesothelioma-double the number previously identified-among Iron Range miners. However, news of the 35 cases did not come to light until March 2007. The agency also reported another six mesothelioma cases on Tuesday, bringing the total number of affected miners to 58. The Minnesota governor defended the commissioner, and his communications director said the commissioner should not be terminated for making a mistake.For the full story, go to www.twincities.com
Mary J. Blige sang it best, when she blurted out…No More Drama! So, try not to be highly emotional, when you’re writing your resignation letter! This is especially true for those of us that are forced to resign because of race-based misconduct at work.Yes, you may be justified in being upset or angry, etc. However, those legitimate emotions can be twisted by your employer and can be used against you in the future. Remember, your official resignation is in writing. Therefore, it can come back to haunt you. So, choose your words carefully. Here are some tips:--don’t forget to include the effective date of your resignation;--give 2 weeks notice—unless there are extenuating circumstances;--write professionally--stick with the facts;--spell-check and grammar check your resignation letter;--don’t use profanity;--don’t make threats of physical violence;--don’t make threats of legal action—let your employer be surprised;--don’t attach any old or new evidence that will be used
The Left’s encomiums of Cindy Sheehan, after announcing her “retirement”, have been non-stop. Even many on the Right have praised Sheehan for “opening her eyes” in her retirement from nationwide antiwar campaigning. But these praises sound more like eulogies than any kind of serious reflection on Cindy Sheehan and, more importantly, the American antiwar movement.
Sheehan’s Role in Reviving the Antiwar Movement
Before Cindy Sheehan’s peace encampment and protest, the antiwar movement was in a definite lull. Large-scale protests like those that occurred pre-invasion were not a common occurrence, and activists were hoping that a Democrat victory in 2004 would mean troop withdrawal from Iraq. However, after Kerry’s defeat, many activists were experiencing burnout, feeling resigned that his defeat was also one for the antiwar movement. That changed when, in August 2005, Cindy Sheehan helped charge the movement once more with her famous enc
I am a huge believer in accepting and loving oneself. There is absolutely nothing WRONG with any of us. This may sound like a strange comment coming from a coach who helps people to change their bodies but there is a very fine distinction between choosing change and thinking you HAVE to change.Simply put, every client I see is perfect and complete the minute they step through the door. It is only from this spot that we can create their new body. If a client is always in the space of hating their body NOW or in a sense of not being at peace with themselves, I can almost guarantee mediocre results.Our minds are very powerful machines. With a program running over and over again telling you that you hate your body, the only thing that machine has energy to do is hate your body and give you more of the same. If we can take that program off of disliking your body, we have all of this energy left over to create something new...to input a new program that says something like "I'm heal

I, Drew, find that I no longer am able to do the tasks as given by the Chicago Cubs franchise. (heh, Julie might be thinking something else) I find that I no longer able to stomach the 9th inning blown 4 run leads, or the mismanagement in the pen, or the inability to get timely hits. I wish to notify you that as of 11/1/07, I will no longer be a Cubs fan, unless the following things happen.
Stipulation 1: You beat the Sox 4 times winning the season series. Now this may not be too important but to me it is. I hate the Sox, I hate their announcers I hate their team and I dislike their players. If you could beat them, that'd go a long way in reestablishing morale.
Stipuation 2: You stay within 3 games of the division and or Wild Card.

Chuck Hagel's Senate office released this statement yesterday:Hagel Calls for Resignation of Attorney General GonzalesMay 16th, 2007 - Washington, D.C. - U.S. Senator Chuck Hagel (R-NE) today released the following statement calling for the resignation of Attorney General Alberto Gonzales. Former Deputy Attorney General James Comey testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee yesterday that, as White House Counsel, Gonzales attempted to undermine Comey’s authority as the acting Attorney General and persuade Attorney General John Ashcroft to re-authorize a domestic surveillance program from his hospital bed.“The American people deserve an Attorney General, the chief law enforcement officer of our country, whose honesty and capability are beyond question. Attorney General Gonzales can no longer meet this standard. He has failed this country. He has lost the moral authority to lead. Comey’s testimony yesterday brings to light the latest episode in a series of questionable action

In this article that pushes the realm of "unbiased", Alexander Panetta of the Canadian Press fuels speculation that Elections Canada head Jean-Pierre Kingsley was pushed to resign by backroom actions taken by the minority Conservatives. What basis does such a claim have?But one Liberal says it's possible that Kingsley was pushed into resigning and calls Nicholson's dismissal of that possibility "not even remotely believable.""Everyone knows you can make a person's life a living hell. You can make someone's life so miserable that they have no choice but to leave," said Liberal MP Mark Holland.Holland referred specifically to Kingsley's recent scrap with the Tories over whether their 2005 convention fees should have been listed as political donations.Yeah. Well maybe Kingsley just didn't like working with the Tories. The idea that something shady was going on is unfounded and shouldn't be suggested by the MSM. There's no proof that they made his life a "living hell". Someone
A newly-joined trainee engineer asks his boss "What is the meaning of appraisal?"
Boss : " Do you know the meaning of resignation?"
Trainee : " Yes, I do."
Boss : " So let me make you understand what an appraisal is by comparing it with resignation. "
In an Appraisal meeting they will speak only about your weakness, errors and failures.In a Resignation meeting they will speak only about your strengths, past achievements and success.
During an Appraisal you may need to cry and beg for even a 10% pay hike.In a Resignation meeting you can easily demand (or get more without asking more than 50-60% pay-hike!
During an Appraisal, they will deny promotion saying that you did not meet the expectation, you don't have leadership qualities, and that you had several drawbacks in reaching objective/goal.During Resignation, they'll say you are the core member of the team; that you are the vision of the company, and so " How can you go ? "; you have to take the project on your shoulders and lead
John Bolton, the very fiery and "blunt-spoken" ambassador of the USA at the United Nations (UN), resigned. Even though he didn't take it very well, American president George W. Bush still accepted it. Apparently, George W. Bush will be going through a bereavement, if you know what I mean... In fact, John Bolton is no longer at the UN to preach George W. Bush's will to the international community. Besides, John Bolton always hated the UN if you look at his critiques about it.Some newspapers in Canada suggest that the Democrats, whether they're in the Congress or in the Senate, are looking for a candidate that can reach both the Republican and the Democrat Party. All right, this is true, but can we have the whole truth, please! Today, the New York Times is saying that the eyes are starting to turn on Zalmay Khalizad, the actual US ambassador in Iraq.If all eyes are on Khalizad, let's hope that he won't be "at odds with the multilateral approach at the United Nations [just like John
President Bush Accepts Ambassador John Bolton's Resignation as U.S. Representative to the United Nations, Biography, John R. Bolton Ambassador Permanent U.S. Representative to the United NationsIt is with deep regret that I accept John Bolton's decision to end his service in the Administration as Permanent Representative of the United States to the United Nations when his commission expires.Over a year ago, I appointed Ambassador Bolton because I knew he would represent America's values and effectively confront difficult problems at the United Nations. He served his country with extraordinary dedication and skill, assembling coalitions that addressed some of the most consequential issues facing the international community. During his tenure, he articulately advocated the positions and values of the United States and advanced the expansion of democracy and liberty.Ambassador Bolton led the successful negotiations that resulted in unanimous Security Council resolutions regarding North

I had the normal hits I would expect (work related) but was surprised to see my current boss has been busy. Apparently going behind my back and doing three more of 'my' jobs... jobs I was prepared to do Monday morning as scheduled. The thing that chaps my hide (I've never in my life said that before!!!) is that we discussed these things last week and I had no idea the boss-person was going to do them behind my back.... and without even mentioning to me they were done!You know I try to avoid details about work here lest I find myself dooced... but I can and will share with you that this was the last straw. I was so angry and frustrated with the lack of communication and respect that I swore to myself that had I not already put in my resignation it would be going in
