Resignation is like when you’re playing a game, and you decide you don’t want to play anymore. Maybe the game isn’t fun for you, or you want to try something new. So, you tell your friends you’re going to stop playing. That’s like a grown-up saying they want to stop working at their job.
Imagine you have a favorite toy that you play with every day. One day, you might feel that playing with it isn’t as exciting as it used to be. You decide to put it away and maybe find a new toy to play with. Resignation is similar; it’s when someone decides to leave their job to find something else they might like better.
Think of a bird flying from one tree to another. The bird leaves the first tree because it sees a better tree with more delicious berries. When people resign from their jobs, they are like the bird moving to a new tree. They leave their old job because they think they might find something better or more enjoyable somewhere else.
