What to write in a birthday card for a colleague

“Happy birthday! The office runs on coffee, deadlines, and the fact that you answer questions without sighing. We appreciate you more than we say.”

“Happy birthday to the only person whose calendar invites I accept without dread. Have a great one - you deserve a meeting-free day.”

“Wishing you a fantastic birthday from the whole team. Scratch the card - we hid something in there, and no, it's not another task.”

Frequently asked questions

What's an appropriate birthday card for a coworker?

Warm, specific, and light on the personal - this format nails it: a few team photos or a plain themed design, short messages from colleagues, and a scratch-off surprise that keeps it fun without being intimate.

Can the whole team sign it like a paper card?

Better - collect short messages or voice notes from teammates and add them as slides. One link goes to the birthday person, and nobody has to smuggle an envelope around the office.

What does it cost?

Building is free and a 1-slide card sends free; the full card is €3 one-time. Split between a team, it's the cheapest genuinely nice gesture available.
