- For the perpetually positive (even when things are crazy): "Happy anniversary! You've survived another 365 days of corporate chaos – you're officially a superhero (or at least, really good at pretending to be one)."
- For the coworker who shares your sense of humor: "Happy work anniversary! May your coffee be strong, your deadlines be met, and your boss be in a good mood... or at least, out of the office."
- For the boss (use with caution!): "Happy anniversary! Thank you for letting me keep my job. I promise to try not to break anything else this year." (This one is best delivered with a big smile and a sincere tone.)
