A two-para handwritten resignation letter by the top executive of a company listed on the share market has gone viral on the internet. The company also enclosed Patel's letter which was written on school notebook paper in its official statement.
The internet has gone viral over a handwritten, two-paragraph resignation letter from a top executive of a firm that is listed on the stock exchange. On December 15, Rinku Patel, the Chief Financial Officer of Mitshi India, a paint producer, turned in a letter to his managing director.
Written on a ruled sheet that resembled a page from a child's notebook, the letter marked a departure from the standard A4 size plain paper used for official reasons. In the era of communications, receiving a handwritten letter was unexpected as well.
