The best retirement wishes are those that the honored person receives with gratitude. Depending on the circumstances, we can give them a commemorative plaque or a simple, original, or even humorous text. Whatever the case, the important thing is that the message is sincere and suited to the context of the celebration.
Giving a memory of this type symbolizes the recognition of the company or colleagues for the time dedicated to work. Reaching retirement means saying goodbye to a fundamental stage for people: our working life. To a greater or lesser extent, people dedicate a good part of our time to our profession. It is a moment that marks a turning point in our life trajectory, full of experiences, joys, sorrows, and affections.
Giving a commemorative plaque with a retirement dedication to the person gives the moment the importance it deserves so that it remains in memory.
A unique phrase for each retirement
Just as there are no two identical people, each retirement is unique. Therefore, the type of dedication that we engrave on a commemorative plaque or personalized trophy will depend on our relationship with the honoree. We should also consider the company's work environment, whether it is formal or allows for relaxed situations, as well as the retiree's own character (whether they are humorous, serious, etc.).
During our years as coworkers, we may have developed a trusting relationship or even a great friendship. Perhaps it is simply someone we respect, with whom we spend our working hours and whom we want to give a farewell gift out of courtesy. Or giving a commemorative plaque for retirement is a tradition in our company. It is also possible that we want to organize a family celebration to give a retirement plaque to our father or mother.
In any case, here are some ideas for retirement dedications, whether from coworkers or family members. We hope they are useful and inspire you.
Funny and emotional retirement wishes
If we are close to the retiree, the tribute phrases depend on our imagination and the experiences we have shared with them. If we are jokers or want to be original, we can dedicate a joke, a funny, ironic, or dark humor phrase, for example.
Freedom and originality are great allies in these cases to ensure the retirement day is always remembered. Here are some examples to adapt as you see fit or choose as they are:
- Today you got the day off, rascal.
- Tireless worker, fantastic coworker, captain of the lunches. We will miss you.
- So many years wondering how to get rid of this job... You finally found the answer! Congratulations, colleague.
- Flexible schedule and goal-oriented work, let me know what company it is to send them my CV.
- You never lifted a finger, I don't think you'll notice the difference. We love you, scoundrel!
- You leave a great void, especially in the office fridge. With love to our dear big eater. We will miss you.
- Warm up, you're going in.
These are some ideas that we hope will inspire you. Here are examples of emotional and sincere dedications:
- On your retirement day, we wish you a happy and well-deserved rest. Your colleagues will not forget you.
- Enjoy a happy and long vacation. With love, your colleagues.
