Dear Lucy - what shall I write in a leaving card?

Rude

Why not say something funny - just make sure your friend can take a joke!

Roses are red
Violets are blue
I never liked you
Cos you smell of poo

I'm really gonna miss ya, but not enough to kiss ya.

I'd like to say it's been nice working with you, but that would suggest you've actually done some work.

You are the weakest link! Goodbye!

Office

Here's some funny ones you can use in your office!

So what's your email address - you're still going to compile the TPS reports, right?

“Things won’t be the same without you”……

Roses are red
Violets are blue
Can I have your mousepad
and your stapler too?
