I kinda thought dropping a little encouragement that being willing to expand a skill set could open up other opportunities was a good thing. I guess I was just bragging and being a dick. Sure didn’t intend for it to come across that way. But whatever. Stressful times for us all.

For AA there is no good reason for them to accept it. They know it is under duress most of the time and if you say no when they offer they move on. That said if you come back it is cheaper to rehire you then go find someone off the street.

Yeah. I’d just call the CP and tell him to can my resignation letter anyway.

I wouldn't hand in a resignation letter unless you were 100% serious about not coming back. Otherwise you're playing with fire, and will probably get burned. These creative games some people like to play are rarely worth it.
