These people should be quarantined at home.

That’s worthless. Put those on candy hearts, and now we’re talkin’.

So I guess happy birthday?

Balloons potentially full of covid-breath? Yikes!

I have the same birthday as two others at work. We were all discussing it and it seemed like the other two were being intentionally corny/sarcastic and saying things like “yeah we should make it a holiday ”. So I come in hot with “ oh yeah and after that we can all go fuck ourselves...” They were not being sarcastic...but on a positive note we don’t talk about it anymore!

When our HR person asked me to “run out and grab an ice cream cake” for a co-worker’s birthday.

Presumptive adults needing to celebrate (or really, address in any way whatsoever) birthdays at work has always confused & irritated me.

If you r coworkers don’t give you shi t it’s because they don’t like you.

I’d usually say happy birthday, but on this occasion, maybe not would be the better call.

I normally would not. But our admin loves me and even came back to the office last night since I was the last one to leave so she could decorate my  office. I kind of had to roll with it at that point. Plus I enjoyed the heck out of the balloons.

They are kinda funny. A workplace birthday celebration with an element of taking the piss is better than one without, I guess.
