An unconventional farewell to a Bengaluru office has gone viral after an employee chose humor over tradition on his last day of work. Instead of writing a formal farewell email, the individual sent a series of memes, surprising and amusing his colleagues.
The moment was shared on Instagram by Bhavish Bhatia, who posted a video describing an unusual farewell message. The clip has since garnered widespread attention across social media platforms.

‘Brace yourself’: A farewell message made entirely of memes
In the video, Bhatia recounted how the farewell email began with a meme that read: “Get ready, the farewell email is coming.” Several others followed, replacing what would typically be a written communication.
According to her, one meme read, “Well, I’m not usually one to talk, so memes,” while another joked about spending hours searching for goodbye memes instead of writing a note. The message ended with a witty signature, making the entire email more of a compilation of jokes than a conventional goodbye.
This approach was characterized by turning what is usually a formal or emotional moment into a light-hearted exchange.

Other team members joined in and continued the tone of the thread. Some responded with funny text messages, others used memes to respond.
One colleague wrote: “Brother, write letters and stuff,” while another referenced a popular Bollywood verse and said: “Go Simran, go!”
Bhatia also noted that one reply stood out where a colleague allegedly removed a manager from a CC list and sent a meme in a “reply to all” message, adding another layer of humor to the exchange.
