There is one correct answer and everybody still working hates hearing it. "What Do You Call A Person Who Is Happy On Monday? Retired." It gets funnier the closer somebody's own leaving date gets.
Hand poured in the Signature Kraft jar with 60+ hours of Caribbean Retreat. A retirement lunch, a last Friday, the first Monday somebody sleeps through: this is the one.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is a good gift to put on a retirement card?
A: Something that gets used at home turns a card into a proper send-off without anybody having to organise a collection. A candle with the joke already printed on it does the talking.
Q: What does Caribbean Retreat smell like?
A: It opens on citrus and teakwood and settles into warm amber with a little clove behind it. It is the closest thing here to a holiday scent without being sweet.
Q: Is a warm scent better than a fresh one for winter?
A: Amber and clove suit the colder months because they read as comfortable rather than crisp, which is what most people want indoors in January. Fresh scents come into their own in spring.
Q: How many evenings does 60 hours actually cover?
A: At three hours a night it is about twenty evenings of solid use, and most people burn one far less often than that. Weekend-only lighting stretches it across a year.
Q: Are the jars glass or plastic?
A: Glass, and thick enough to keep and reuse once the wax is out. That is why the size line quotes the jar and not just the wax weight.
Q: Does the joke still work for somebody retiring mid-week?
A: The Monday line is about the whole idea of the working week rather than a specific day, so it lands whenever they leave. Nobody has ever checked the calendar on this one.
