If you're moving from a full-time position, to a part-time position within the same company (same job, same duties, etc - just doing it in fewer hours), do you fill out a letter of resignation?
My boss requested this of me, and it smells fishy. A resignation letter means that I'm quitting, which I'm not. No one asked me to 'resign' from my part time position when I moved to full time 4 years ago - why do I have to do it now to go backwards? Except maybe so he can try to pay me less because I technically 'quit'?

Your boss is just asking for documentation of the change and that you requested it. This is normal business practice. You don't have to say that you resign from your full-time job...just say that you are requesting that your status and hours be changed from full-time to part time and what the effective date is.

I agree with you - sounds fishy to me also. I don't see any reason for a letter of resignation, as just as you stated, that would mean you were leaving the company. All you are doing is changing your work hours. Don't do the letter, I think they are up to no good on your behalf

your boss has some plans that he is not ready to reveal yet. my advice is , try your best to carry out the same duty allocated to you . bear in mind you are having the same workload with lesser working hours , logically & naturally , you would not be able to complete the task in the same period as when you were working full time. relax, do not put pressure on yourself. after one or two months , talk to your boss personally . discuss with him/ her , you did your best , but the problem remains , tell him / her , you feel you are responsible to tell the truth ( i.e. same job can not be completed in lesser time ) ask him / her , can he / she , as a boss , help to think of a solution ?
lastly , do not quit if you think you like the job , because the problem is not you . the boss made the changes , let him / her solve the problem that arised as a result of this change.
fight with a fighting spirit & fight cheerfully. the boss created problem , throw it back to him / her unnoticeably .
well, if he pays you less because of less hours worked in the same period. take it as an opportunity to look for another part-time job to fill up the time and get back the short fall of the pay so that it may adds up to be the same / similar pay . Moreover, who knows, you may finally landed in a greener pasture. cheers , good luck.

First, a word to lots of the different so-referred to as "answerers": in case you don't recognize something in any respect about a subject matter, please do not submit. you're in basic terms embarrassing yourselves. Now, as for using on the weekends. First you ought to get both a category A or a category B CDL (commercial driving force's License). This oftentimes contains taking some training except you recognize someone that provide help to take advantage of his truck for prepare. in case you do not have any using adventure i ought to signify attempting on your class B CDL. this provide help to stress unmarried-unit automobiles (no trailers) over 26,000 lbs. gross automobile weight. you'll get weekend using jobs with places like domicile Depot or Lowes delivering consumers' purchases to their properties. a more beneficial valuable theory must be to envision with a courier provider or Spee-Dee (or a similar provider). counting on the dimensions of the automobile you received't choose a particular drivers license in any respect. you may also examine into using a taxi on the weekends, or getting your passenger endorsement and using a limo. keep in concepts, the X-mas season is readily drawing near and delivery jobs will be doping up. to this point because the pay is going, i changed into at present presented a weekend-in simple terms using pastime for Menard's (a chain of domicile progression shops) and the initiating pay changed into $15.00 per hour. i receives a fee nicely at my typical pastime so i did not take it, yet even devoid of adventure you ought to anticipate $11 to $12 per hour. in case you anticipate to stress a tractor-trailer unit on the weekends (maximum human beings call them "semis"), ignore it. It would not be extremely well worth the time and cost of having the license and endorsements desire this facilitates, once you've any added questions be at liberty to digital mail me.

Dont do it and see what happens. Tell him/her to give your an example or better yet have them write it and then you can decide if you want to sign it or not. Also, what is the alternative? Will you loose your job either way (sing or not sign)? Smells fishy to me too. Good luck!
