Black White Owl Farewell Card shows a cartoon owl with huge eyes clutching a hot drink, and the printed words We never really liked you anyway. Bye. tell the reader exactly how they feel about the coworker leaving. Sending this card lets you express relief with a smile, and it was made for the person who needs a honest, funny way to say good riddance.

Note: the seal stickers shown in the photo are for styling only and not included.

Ships with a kraft envelope; envelope color in photo may vary.

How the design is put together

A sketched owl stands centrally on the page with an expression of shock or surprise while gripping a small cup. Above the bird, the sentence We never really liked you anyway sits in a clean serif font. A speech bubble attached to the owl contains the single word Bye in a flowing script. This combination of rough ink lines and bold typography creates a visual that matches the blunt sentiment of the text. The artwork belongs to the genre of workplace humor cards designed to celebrate a departure without being overly sentimental.

Who will enjoy it

The Black White Owl Farewell Card appeals to anyone who has ever wanted to be brutally honest about a colleague. You might use this when handing over a desk gift or slipping it into a retirement envelope. It fits the occasion where a team wants to acknowledge the end of an era with laughter instead of awkward speeches. People who appreciate dry wit and cartoonish expressions will find this design particularly satisfying.

What does the text on the owl card actually mean?
The text We never really liked you anyway. Bye. is a humorous exaggeration meant to signal relief rather than genuine malice. It plays on the universal feeling of wanting to leave a difficult job or coworker behind. The joke lies in the contrast between the polite act of sending a card and the blunt message inside, making it a safe way to express workplace frustration with a laugh.
Who specifically gets the reference from this owl design?
This design targets people who have endured a tough boss or annoying teammate and are finally leaving. It suits those who prefer dry, sarcastic humor over sweet, sentimental messages. If your former coworker has a reputation for being grumpy or if you share a history of office complaining, this specific owl illustration will land perfectly because it validates your shared experience.
When is the best time to give this farewell card?
Send this card during the final week before someone retires or starts a new position. It works well as a group gift from the team or a personal note from a close friend. Pair it with a practical gift like a travel mug or a funny book to complete the send-off. The timing should align with the actual last day to maximize the impact of the joke.
