Resignation As Managing Member: Fill & Download for Free

For the same reasons as David Cameron did: Brexit.“I make that the 37th member of Theresa May's government to resign. I really don't see how she survives this one.”Tom Peck, Sketch writer, the Independent, 24 May 2019Earlier this week, Andrea Leadsom became the 36th minister to resign from Theresa May’s government. As usual, Brexit was the issue . Two days later, Mrs May became the 37th minister to resign from her government. As usual, Brexit was the issue.Mrs May is now the second successive Conservative prime minister neither to unify her party over Europe nor to make Brexit happen. Regular readers will be familiar with my regularly criticisms of Mrs May appalling premiership. Her self contradictory Brexit objectives, her contemptuous and controlling approach to managing government and her streaks of inflammatory, scornful and authoritarian language.Brexit broke Mrs May’s political career. The referendum which led to Brexit was based on a campaign that presented breezy solutions, absent of trade offs and offered voters power but not responsibility. Mrs May simply perpetuated this narrative during much of her premiership. As did many other elected UK politicians who failed to manage to voters’ expectations.The result of 18 months of Brexit negotiations was a tedious 585 page legal document: the withdrawal agreement. The reality of this agreement is demonstrably inferior to EU membership and differed from the referendum offer. Mrs May had little chance of her offer persuading either the public or parliament to back the withdrawal agreement.Just like David Cameron before her, Mrs May has failed to deliver Brexit, despite saying that she would.

I've experienced it first hand. It was around 2002 and Indian Insurance Industry had recently opened up for private players. I took a job with one of the Insurance company in the “Home Insurance” sales department in the “Direct Sales Team”.This company is known in Indian Finance market to have one of the most competitive work environment. But it always worked for them as they were numero Uno in almost all financial sectors they stepped in.I joined as a regular sales executive and was promoted to Team Lead position on the 50th day after setting some sales records I was able to score. This was my first time to lead a team and I was all excited doing that.One day a team mate of mine lost his dad. I unilaterally decided that the entire team visits his family to console them. We were there for the last rites and then went back to work. I allowed my colleague to take off for that day and next few days. The next Monday, I was called up in the office by the Regional Manager and was questioned on the absence of the mate. I explained the situation and that he would be joining soon. The RM’s response left me speechless for a while as the discussion went as follows:RM: You seem naive, death in family is a regular reason for taking extended leaves, you should not have permitted.Me: Sorry sir, but me along-with the whole team visited him on the fateful day and we were there for the last rites too. So I can tell you with complete confidence that his father indeed expired.RM: Don’t give me that bull-shit, the company cannot lose for a dead man. You could have simply asked him to put papers and moved on. So many people die everyday, he could have continued with the work from the next day onwards. I am warning you, your team has a target and I want that met with at the end of the month and you will be on the losing end because of this guy who is missing the work.I was shocked to see someone so heartless. But took it as a challenge and discussed the same thing with my team. The team vowed that we meet our numbers and fill in for the missing mate.Come end of month, we were all heading to the office for the team meeting. We had already over achieved our targets and had our eyes set on moving to #1 rank in collections. On that entire day, I was only thinking about the way I want to respond to the RM as he would be presiding the meeting.The meeting went something like this….RM: It’s a great month for us and the business has risen again. Good to see most teams meeting their targets. So here are the numbers ….He went on to announce the numbers and my team was short by Rs.12/- (roughly $0.2 considering the $ price in 2002) from being the top Premium Collector. I had a feeling that the RM would ding me on this and he did…RM: See Mayuresh, I told you that excuses are excuses. That decision of yours had cost you the Numero Uno position. You and your team are a bunch of losers and all thanks to the fake death in your team member’s family.My intuition was right and I was prepared for it. The ugly part was that this was happening in front of all teams in the city almost a gathering of 60–70 people. I stood up and pulled a paper from my document folder and said:Me: I am proud of my team. We were one person short for almost 10 days and still we managed to end up 2nd from top and that too short of just Rs.12/-. From where I see it, we are the best team in the territory. Nonetheless, I pity your thinking and seems no one else objected hence all managers agree with your view. In such a case I don’t think a person like me who thinks from his heart has a place in such company. Here is my resignation as I take the responsibility of that shortfall of Rs.12/- though we achieved our target.I simply stormed out of the room without even talking to my team and rushed out of the office downstairs to a paan shop. Took a cigarette and was trying to calm down. I saw that my entire team except 2 came down to me and said we knew where to find you. We too have handed over our resignation as we do not wish to work with heartless people like these. Next 2 days, the Insurance Company saw almost 80% team members resign across all “Home Insurance Team”. A month later I learnt that the RM was fired and the department was merged with some other team and there was no more direct sales team, rather it became a product available through bank sales only.So I was the one who stood up to the inhumane treatment and started a mass exodus of almost entire division.Edit: Wow 1K+ upvotes …. This is my second answer that has crossed this mark, but the other was answered anonymously. Mixed feelings, because both are about personal negative experiences that were liked so much. Whereas other answers that are on a positive note or informative one's didn't harp this kind of response.
