βCommon Questions
Q.Is it appropriate to send a sarcastic get well card to a colleague?
Only if you have a solid, established joking relationship with them. Know your audience - what's hilarious to one coworker might offend another. When in doubt, go with a more traditional message.
Q.What should I avoid in a sarcastic get well message for a colleague?
Avoid anything related to actual job performance, salary, promotions, or health specifics. Stick to lighthearted office quirks and universal workplace annoyances that everyone can laugh about.
Q.When is the best time to send a sarcastic get well card to a coworker?
Wait until they're clearly on the mend and in good spirits. Sarcasm falls flat when someone is truly suffering. A good rule: if they're well enough to check work emails, they're well enough to appreciate your dark humor.
