It Will Be Shit Card for a Coworker Who Is Leaving

It Will Be Shit Card shows a bold comic burst with the words IT WILL BE SHIT HERE WITHOUT YOU!, and that blunt line tells the leaving coworker exactly how much their absence will be felt. The joke is rude but warm, and it works because everyone at work knows the feeling. It is made for the colleague who is moving on and for the team left behind.

A closer look at the print

The card is built around a large white comic burst edged in thick black ink. Inside it, the words IT WILL BE in black capitals sit above a much bigger word, SHIT, printed in hot pink with a dark drop shadow that makes it pop off the page. Below that, HERE WITHOUT sits in black, and a final, larger YOU! closes the line with a bit of extra emphasis. The lettering is chunky and playful, borrowing the look of old comic book exclamations.

Around the burst, the background fills with pop art color: yellow in the top left and bottom right, hot pink in the top right, and blue in the bottom left. Each color area has a dotted halftone texture, like printed comics. Small yellow and pink stars and black speed lines add motion, so the whole card feels like a sudden, excited shout. Short motion marks flank the word SHIT, as if the word has just been yelled across the room. The overall effect is loud, bright and unmistakably funny.

The design sits in the farewell and coworker leaving theme, so the comic style is meant to soften a blunt message. The pink and yellow give the card an upbeat mood, and the bold type reads clearly from across a desk. Nothing about the layout is subtle, and that is the point of the joke.

Who will love it

The people who will laugh first are the coworkers who have worked beside the person leaving, the ones who will notice an empty chair on Monday morning. Team leads, close friends from the office and anyone who shares a lunch break will recognize the honest sentiment behind the rude line. A team that has built inside jokes together will enjoy the bluntness of it.

It also suits the office moment when a card is passed around for signatures. Someone can write a few lines underneath the printed burst, and the joke gives everyone permission to be playful. The card keeps the mood light at a moment that can feel awkward, so colleagues do not have to find the right serious words.

Occasions and picks

This greeting card is a natural fit for a last day, a farewell lunch or a goodbye drinks evening. It also works when a team wants to say they will miss a colleague who is changing jobs, retiring or moving to another city. The natural style shown is simple and clean, so the bold artwork carries the whole card.

To use it well, hand it over at the end of the final shift, when everyone can read the line and laugh together. Pair it with a small treat from the team for a warm, funny send-off that feels personal.
