When a co-worker's birthday comes around, we can use it as an opportunity to express our gratitude and wish them all the best in life. What we write in a card or say to them on their special day should make them feel happy, loved, and appreciated. The tone of your message should be informal. It must be sincere, meaningful, and well-structured. We should note that it will be difficult to write a longer or in-depth birthday message unless you have a closer relationship with your colleague at work. In this article, you’ll find inspiration and examples of what to write in a birthday card to your teammate at work.
