Should I resign while still being respected or not?

A colleague who works the same room with me has just done resignation. Everyone in the company response was indifferent to it. No one to ask or say goodbye to her. This is inevitable because she was not really impressed and friendly people and the board of directors.
I think she would have to resign from the front. Because her work is not effective, the board has repeatedly criticized her, even in front of other employees in the company. Maybe they want her to resign voluntarily, but she did not understand that. She also happens to quarrel with his colleagues.
I'd love that when resign, I will receive the blessing, the words of an appointment to meet colleagues and appreciation of the board of directors because of his efforts. So if I were her, I have resigned earlier.

Yes, it's great to resign gracefully.But there will also be times that it would not be the case for all. If her stay with the company will just make her depressed, give her panic attacks, me her blood pressure go through the roof, and make her feel like she'll be halfway to an ulcer, then I would suggest that she should leave immediately. For sure, with the untimely decision, she'll definitely not know what to do next but she know for sure that it would be for the better. It will be terrifying for her on what she'll do for the meantime. But no job is better than her mental health. So I guess her decision on getting out of it is right especially that it's already hitting her hard. Her job should support her life, not destroy it.

it will depend on what reason for you to resign,if it because you are not fit to work or if your work have many errors and no development,i think you should really have to resign,even if you are respected,so like you i will also resign early as i can.

resignation is a prerogative of the worker. resigning from a job should be based on rational decision-making, and not out of emotional and social entanglements. well, if it is inevitable to resign because of some reasons, then i agree with you that it is better to do it when your esteem and dignity are still intact. so that you will leave the office or organization with your head up high.

It's really heartwarming when colleagues sincerely say that they'll miss you and stuff when you resign from work. It could sometimes be a boost in our ego if our bosses try to convince us not to resign. Sometimes they even offer a higher salary for you to reconsider. I myself would resign before I totally mess up my job. I mean, if I'm aware that I can't perform my work properly, I wouldn't wait for my bosses to make me resign. I'd give my notice immediately and still have my pride :)

I think she did try to fight for her job but the situation and the people does not suit her so it is time to give up and find another place. Yes, it is nice to resign from work in where people have a great appreciation for the contributions you have made in your years of employment and for the friends you have gain during your stay. In that case it would be really hard to live the play where you work for they feel like a family to you now.
