This is a nice, graceful way to quit, Mr. Olson. Kudos.

I saw a commercial the other day of a woman who bought the office a cake as a way of saying "I Quit". Again, that's nice. Leaving on your terms.

But the best way to leave is to do your job to the best of your ability for as long as you want, then walk away with more than enough notice for your employer to find a suitable replacement.

Mr. Olson knocked it out of the park. Giving plenty of notice, claiming he's still working his job, and will do what he needs to do to help with the transition. Thank you, Mr. Olson, for your touch of class and showing us all the correct way to leave the job.
