A Twitter user has prompted thousands of people to share their hilarious resignation stories after she shared the notice of a colleague. In a card, the employee said: "I'm sorry for your loss. My last day at work is on the 28th of July."

The user captioned the post: "One of our team members handed in their notice like this."

It seems many people have ditched the old, formal way of notifying their employers of their decisions to quit. 

One user shared that he, too, tendered his resignation in a card, which read: "It's me, here's my two weeks notice."

From cards to doughnuts, here's a glimpse of more reactions:
