Fired from Job Card: Funny Leaving Card for Coworkers

Fired from Job Card shows a playful congratulations line, with the printed words “CONGRATULATIONS ON LEAVING YOUR JOB WITHOUT BEING ESCORTED OUT OF THE BUILDING BY SECURITY.” The joke turns a feared office exit into a cheerful send-off, and it was made for someone who has earned a good laugh on the way out.

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

What the design shows

The lettering sits in a clean, hand-printed style across the middle of the card, with the words “CONGRATULATIONS” and “ESCORTED OUT OF” underlined in blue and red. Those two underlines guide the eye straight to the punchline, so the joke reads in the right order. Around the text, small doodles of office supplies fill the margins: a paper plane near the top, a manila folder on the left, a paper clip below it, and a steaming yellow mug on the right beside the words. Lower down, a green pen cup holds a bundle of pens and scissors, a wire trash can overflows with crumpled paper, a yellow briefcase sits near the bottom left, and two blue speech bubbles appear by the final line. Every element belongs to an ordinary workday, from the coffee break to the paperwork. The result feels like a page torn from a busy desk, which suits a card that jokes about the moment someone walks out of the office.

Who it was made for

This card suits a coworker, boss, teammate or office friend who is leaving a job and who appreciates a bit of dark humor. Anyone who has sat through a tense performance review, a messy reorganization or a long stretch of cold coffee will recognize the situation the joke pokes fun at. The printed line gives them a way to laugh about the exit instead of worrying over it. You can also send it to a friend who is starting a new role and wants to hear that the old job ended on good terms. The doodles make the card feel casual and friendly rather than sharp, so it works for people you have shared a desk, a Slack channel or a few awkward meetings with over the years.

As a gift and every day

This card works best for a last day, a farewell lunch or a surprise note slipped into a desk drawer before someone clears out their things. It also fits a new-job celebration, where the joke can be a lighthearted way to mark a clean and successful departure. Add a short handwritten line beneath the printed message to make it personal. Because the card is a single greeting card in a natural color, it can easily sit in a going-away envelope or a small group card, and it gets a laugh every time the recipient rereads it on their own desk.
