If you’re employed, the chances are that you spend a great deal of your waking hours with your coworkers. So, your colleague is pretty much part of your inner social circles.

Some coworkers are actually closer to us than our dearest relatives and friends. So close that we don’t mind confiding in them our deepest aspirations or darkest secrets.

Other colleagues can be so loyal and dependable that they would readily cover for us in the event we call in sick following a night of getting wasted (pun intended). Not to mention those who constantly challenge us to excel ourselves within the professional space.

Therefore, it’s only fair that we appreciate our coworkers at the slightest opportunity we can find. And one way to do that is by helping them mark their birthdays in style.

But finding the right messages to write on your coworkers birthday is not always a walk in the park. And that’s especially true if you don’t have a way with words.

There’s no need to fret though. We’ve prepared a collection of cool, unique, and funny birthday wishes to dedicate to your colleague each time they turn a year older.
