The Ultimate Resignation Party With a Sendoff From Patrick Stewart
One side effect of the “great resignation” is plenty of office farewell parties. In a new ad, British brand Yorkshire Tea imagines what one of these celebrations might be like if Sir Patrick Stewart himself offered a stirring tribute to the departing colleague.
“Shall we not hear again the sweet rasp of your stapler” is a line that I think should probably be added to all farewell speeches from now on. The ad is a clever way to offer a branded take on an increasingly familiar workplace situation, though most of us aren't lucky enough to have Sir Patrick's eloquence to send us off to our next adventure.
