Common questions
When is it appropriate to send a savage New Year wish to a colleague?‹
These wishes are best reserved for colleagues you have a very close, playful rapport with, or within a team culture that genuinely appreciates dry humor and sarcasm. Always consider your relationship and their personality before sending.
How can I ensure my colleague understands it's a joke and not offensive?‹
Context is key! Deliver these wishes with a clear smirk, a wink, or follow up with a genuine compliment or a shared laugh. If sending digitally, consider adding an emoji or a 'just kidding!' to soften the blow. Your existing relationship is the biggest indicator.
Are there any colleagues I should *never* send these types of wishes to?‹
Absolutely. Steer clear of sending savage wishes to your boss, HR, new hires, particularly sensitive individuals, or colleagues with whom you have a strictly professional or formal relationship. When in doubt, a traditional 'Happy New Year!' is always safer.
