What to say on someone's last working day
A career of that length deserves more than drinks and a bunch of flowers. Write a compliment of your own for whoever is leaving, free, or do it with the whole team.
Free to write and free to share. No account needed.
What stays with someone after the last day
At a retirement do there are speeches and handshakes. But what people take home are the personal lines: that one project, that habit, the fact that you could always rely on them. Write them down, on your own or with every colleague on one present.

Frequently asked questions
Can the whole team join in?
Yes. Start a board and let everyone write their own line, including the people working from home. Afterwards it becomes one card, poster or canvas.
What makes a good retirement present?
Something about the person, not about the retirement. Colleagues' own words on one present beat any standard leaving voucher.
Do I need an account?
No. Making and sharing is free and works without an account.
Something for the last working day
Forty years doesn't fit on a receipt from the stationery shop.
