When, in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume, among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. :D

Speaking as someone who assisted fellow polymath and noted redhead Thomas Jefferson in writing the Declaration of Independence, might I suggest that you assert your basic human liberties in written form and present this to your organization's highest supervisor? Allow perhaps two weeks for this person to recognize your rights and offer you recompense before leaving to start your own financial business. :D

I suggest you move on from this dead-end prospect, regardless, and pursue some other talent or interest, of which you doubtless have at least two hundred. I once listed out my interests on a calendar with one for each day of the year and hardly got through much of a list at all -- but I am thought by some to be a bit overzealous in this respect! :D

Might I also recommend some of that delicious french confection, ice cream, to soothe your beleagured spirit? My favorite flavor is Almond Fudge Ripple. :D :D :D

Yours sincerely,
Benjamin Franklin, Printer

P.S. Do try not to be terribly long-winded in your declaration. I always did think Jefferson could have benefited from being a bit more succinct. :D
