Witty Remarks That are Just Way Too Shrewd

Everyone can be straightforward. It's being witty that adds a little spice to it Be it at work, or in a relationship, a little wit is always appreciated. Moreover, it takes a sense of humor to understand it. So, save these remarks for like-minded people, and have a good laugh together.

We're all sick of writing the same old messages in leaving cards, when our colleagues leave their job for a new one. Sometimes we're indeed stumped, when the card finally comes to us, and we have to write a message.

Get witty, leave the mush for the others. Have your colleague actually remember you for the witty remark you left in his card. Just ensure he/she has a good sense of humor to understand and appreciate it. Here are a few options to choose from.

♦ Simply write - Quitter!
♦ Sad to hear you're leaving. Can I have your mouse pad and stapler?
♦ Write a mundane message in the card, and follow it up with - The Internet says I should write this.
♦ After you have written "all the best" or "best wishes", write - So what's your email address - you're still going to compile the sales reports, right?

♦ I'd like to say it's been nice working with you, but that would suggest you've actually done some work.
♦ You'll be deeply missed. The bathroom won't smell the same without you.
♦ Now they'll know who was stealing all the stationery.
♦ Everyone brings joy to this workplace: some when they arrive, some when they leave.

♦  I'm sorry to see the back of you - but it's better than the front.
♦ Good Luck with the new job. Have a drink on me. - Then attach an instant coffee sachet to the card.
♦ Over the years working together at this company, I have come to think of you as someone... I once met.

♦  Sorry to see you go, although obviously we'll still bump into each other down at narcotics anonymous.
♦ Say their name is Paul, put I'll never forget you Ted!, followed by your best wishes.

♦ Congrats to the first Rat leaving this ship. Good Luck!
♦ After everyone has signed the card, sign off with - Isn't it amazing how nice people are to you when they know you're leaving?
