Happy birthday. I wanted the record to include that you catch the typo before the client did. I hope the day stays manageable and the year includes a week with fewer surprises.
Birthday wishes for a coworker
Coworker wishes can thank someone for catching a typo or putting your name on the work. They are not friend wishes. The team page speaks as we. Funny lines stay in a private channel and never touch age or rank. Do not use pet names, inside jokes from outside work, or anything you would hate to see in a screenshot. Choose formal for a public card, funny only for a private chat, and the team scene when more than one person signs.
