For a coworker

The card gets signed by people who barely know them. You want one thing that says what they actually did.

A song for a coworker, for the send-off or the shout-out

Office cards get signed and forgotten; a song with a coworker's name and the team's running jokes gets played at the party and replayed later. Give us the projects, the habits and the desk details, and we take it from there.

Free to hear: the first 60 seconds in about two minutes. $12.99 only if you keep the full song.

A song for a coworker, for the send-off or the shout-out

Hear the second a name lands

Oh Joaquin, you make my whole world bright.

You wrote“Runs the Brooklyn half marathon every spring.”

The song singsEvery spring you run the Brooklyn half with pride.

From a real song made here: “Good Morning, Joaquin”, for Joaquin, from what his wife typed.

The moment you give it

Someone connects the laptop to the room speaker. The team hears the running joke from that launch everyone survived in verse two, and the guest of honor laughs so hard they have to sit down.

Office material

  • The project everyone associates with them.
  • Their desk: the plant, the snacks, the sticky notes.
  • A running joke from the team chat.
  • How they helped someone who was new.
  • Where they are heading next.

Keep it work-safe

Remember the song will be played in front of colleagues and possibly managers. Keep the jokes friendly and leave out anything private. One sincere line in the chorus is plenty.

For example

Team, treats and a thank you.

  • Dana has rescued every printer jam on the third floor since 2019.
  • She brings lemon bars to every Friday release.
  • We would have missed every deadline without her spreadsheets.

Ways to use it

  • Play it at the farewell lunch.
  • Open a team video call with it.
  • Drop it in the group chat on their last day.
  • Hand them the MP3 along with the card.

For remote teams

If your team works remotely, the song travels well. Play it at the start of a video call with everyone unmuted for the reaction, or post it in the team channel with a short message.

Ask a few people in different time zones to contribute one detail each, so the song sounds like the whole team rather than one desk.

Songs are not only for goodbyes. A team can welcome someone with a short, funny song about their first week, or mark a promotion with one about the climb. Keep it upbeat and well clear of anything confidential.
