Be as positive as possible. Say something like, "I have enjoyed working at this company and this decision has been difficult. I have been offered an opportunity that I do not feel that I can ignore so it is with mixed emotion that I must offer my resignation. Kindest regards. John Doe"
Keep it short and positive. Don't go into a great deal about your complaints or people with whom you did not work well. Remember that you may encounter some of these people again whether or not you like it or intend for it to ever happen.
