We'll be moving soon, and it's just too far of a drive to warrant working there anymore.

I would first make sure you have all your personal computer files copied to a DVD or USB device of some kind. It is important to give at least two weeks notice in writing. Don't let your boss pressure you into staying longer. They will manage without you. If you are wanting to get another job, it would be best to make sure you have that job before quitting your current one. It is never a good idea to 'burn a bridge' as some put it. You never know when you may need a reference and besides your a nice person, right?
Good luck on your move.

I overheard my Boss one time talking to her friend. Telling her if she wasn't happy with her job, Then not to give two weeks notice. Just approach her Boss and tell them that she wasn't happy working there anymore.
I was sitting at my desk. I had been contemplating quitting for a while. So as soon as she hung up the phone. I repeated her words of advice to her and walked out the door.
Thanks for letting me share the story, which doesn't help you. If you are on good terms just explain it to your Boss the way you asked us.

Go into your boss's office, tell him to sit down and shut up, and hand him your resignation with attachments. The att. will outline everything that has bothered you about the company and him, but don't expect a hand-shake of goodwill at the end. Just my suggestion.

send them a card or something of just plain call in. Or better yet make something up like you are moving out of state.

What is your job? Where is it located? Maybe you can introduce me as a replacement if the pay is high enough, I'll make sure I qualify. LOL

Be sure to make it professional, and give the employer LOTS of time to replace you. You'll likely want your current employer's recommendation at some future point...

it depends on whether you want to burn a bridge or not.
If not, a letter stating the reason above is sufficient.
if you want to burn a bridge, you can do what I did once. I left a note saying "F you, I quit, strong letter to follow"
