Question

Is it ok to resign by email if you are a contract employee? Don't have an office or work with a boss?

Answer 1

If you were hired by e-mail, it might be okay. But if you were hired in person, you should resign in person and do the necessary paperwork, perhaps followed by an e-mail confirming your discussion. You may need to give notice so they can find a replacement. If you just flake out it may come back to haunt you.

Answer 2

No. Always do that face to face in person, otherwise it looks sneaky and low class.
