I've been there for a while and they asked me if I was planing on staying "permanently" when they hired me and I said yeah. BUT, I hate it and I have been looking at different job postings that I feel would be more interesting. If I get a new job, can I tell my boss that I got recruited to a better paying job? I want to leave on good terms and I'm afraid if I tell them I'm quitting because I got another job, they'll get pissed off especially since my boss specifically asked me if I was planing on staying with the company for a long time.

Dear sir
Though I have enjoyed my seven years of employment with you an opportunity has come up which I really cannot turn down. This opportunity is one that will take my career to the next step, not only with additional income, but responsibility and upward mobility. I appreciate the wonderful opportunity for personal growth, knowledge and experience that this position, and your company have given me, but at the same time I feel that I have become stagnant in my role within this company. I will of course give the usual two week notice and will leave here sad, but excited at the new opportunity that has landed on my doorstep. I will always remember this company fondly, and the people that I have worked with these seven years. In my departure I wish you and all the employees continued happiness, and prosperity and hope to keep in contact with you in the near future.

Say you found a new job. Your boss may be disappointed for a little while, but the company can always find someone else to work for them. They technically cannot hold that against you. Don't say the new job is better paying or offers better hours unless it does. And if it does have better hours, more money, and more benefits, I'm sure your supervisors and clients alike will understand why you are leaving and respect your decision.

Tell them that you got a better job offer for more money and that is what you want to do. Who cares how they feel, you have to live with yourself and if you hate your job you're going to be miserable. Just give proper notice and be professional and do what makes you happy.

You need more cash! That is the reason I gave my job of 13 months after I got my Bachelor's Degree. The manager was stunned LOL!

except you're under a freelance, you do no longer ought to provide an explaination. although, to maintain this organization as a sturdy reference it incredibly is incredibly helpful to objective to grant some style of a word. 2 weeks is nice, yet even one million week is extra useful than none. i might basically clarify that i think it incredibly is time for me to pass directly to something else, and that my time has exceeded with the corporate. basically enable them to correctly known it is not something to do with them interior the nicest way attainable and thank them for the prospect that they gave you.
