Heard about your new role. Must be nice to get paid more for doing... well, whatever it is you do. Good for you, I guess.
They promoted you? Incredible! I suppose someone had to fill that spot, and you were... available. Best of luck!
A promotion, eh? Don't let all that 'power' go to your head. We both know who the *real* success story in the family is. (It's me, obviously).
None of these feel quite right?
Add a personal detail — a memory, a name — and get something made just for your Cousin.
So, more responsibilities and likely more stress? Sounds just like the promotion you always dreamed of. Enjoy!
To my dear cousin, congratulations on successfully fooling management into thinking you deserve a promotion. Keep up the charade!
They finally recognized your 'unique' contributions? Shocking. Now you can afford to buy me that expensive dinner you owe me.
Another promotion! Who knew showing up consistently (most days) was all it took? You're a trailblazer.
Well, look at you, moving on up! Try not to break anything important with your newfound authority. Or do, it'll be hilarious.
Common questions
How do I know if my cousin will appreciate sarcastic wishes?‹
You know your cousin best! If they have a great sense of humor, appreciate playful banter, and aren't easily offended, then a sarcastic wish is probably perfect. If they tend to take things literally or are sensitive, maybe stick to a more traditional, albeit still slightly dry, congratulations.
Can I combine a sarcastic wish with a genuine one?‹
Absolutely! A classic move is to deliver a perfectly dry, sarcastic line, then follow it up with a quick, "But seriously, great job, I'm genuinely proud of you." This shows you're celebrating them while still keeping your signature humor intact.
What's a good way to deliver these wishes – text, card, or in person?‹
For maximum impact (and to gauge their immediate reaction), in-person is best. However, a text or a card allows them to re-read and fully appreciate the subtle digs. If writing, make sure your tone is clear; emojis can sometimes help convey the humor if you're worried about misinterpretation.
