Apparently greetings card industry in Britain has a market worth over 1.2 billion pounds a year.  That’s an awful lot of birthday, anniversary, sorry you’re leaving and congratulations on losing your virginity cards.

Sadly the Greetings Card Group has not maintained its market share and 2,500 of its employees are at risk of redundancy if the business cannot be sold as a going concern.

The administrators were called in at the beginning of January as the company has 30 millions pounds worth of debt (makes my credit card bill look like a tear drop in an ocean) and could not reach an agreement with its creditors.

While we are yet to confirm the veracity of our sources, we believe the following to be a draft of the redundancy notice that will be sent to affected employees should the worst happen:

We’re Sad To Say
That From This Day
Your Services Are
No Longer Required
 
But Have No Fear
You’ll Be Leaving Here
With Six Months Of
Redundancy Pay
 
And All The Greetings
Cards You Can Carry
