You've heard the job description buzzwords before. Join our 'fast-paced' and 'high-energy' work environment! Must be a 'self-starter!' Team player! Detail-oriented! Flexible! But what do these coded phrases really mean? When they say you'll be working in a 'fast-paced, unpredictable work environment,' do they mean the fun, thrilling kind of unpredictability akin to going on a first date? Or do they mean you will be micromanaged without warning? We're talking about full-time, living wage office work here—it's definitely going to be the latter. @_RobertSchultz hit the nail on the head with a Twitter meme that pretty much sums up the eye roll-inducing quality of common job description buzzwords we're subjected to far too often. The meme resonated with thousands of other disgruntled workers with opinions of their own. Keep scrolling for some spicy and relatable banter from the thread.
Office
Another day, another dollar. Sometimes it really does feel like we're all working our whole lives away. Whether you're working from home, in an office, at a bar, driving drunk people around, in a grocery store—it's essentially all the same sh*t if you think about it. Just a dull, thankless hell making more wealth for the big boss as the bills and debt pile up. Well you know what, there's one thing they can't take from us: memes. Scroll on the clock or text 'em to your coworkers. Hell, maybe even take it to the next level and make some work memes of your own in those moments where you've just had enough.
In the words of Dolly Parton, "9 to 5! For service and devotion, you would think that I would deserve a fair promotion. Want to move ahead, but the boss won't seem to let me. I swear sometimes that man is out to get me."
Some people love working from home, and then there are those of us who despise it. We're just tired of rolling out of bed 10 minutes before work and staring at the same damn wall every single day, okay? Click here if you relate more to customer service work memes!
To everyone working through the madness that is 2020, we see you. And we're here to offer some respite in the form of work-related memes. They may not give you the time off that you've requested (or benefits) but they will probably remind you that you're not alone in the struggle.
These memes are for those about to go into that boring-ass corporate Tuesday meeting that literally doesn't apply to you at all. For those times there are memes, because at the end of the day, we're all living in a late-stage capitalist hellhole where we work to pay a fortune for rent and nothing really matters. Now onto the memes!
Hey you, are you fed up with going to work every single day and pretending like you're not completely miserable working for The Man? Of course you are. And if the answer to that question is no, then you're probably some sort of psychopath. Sorry, it's just the unfortunate truth.
Whether you're an office employee or a server in a restaurant, we can all come together and agree that working is complete bullsh*t. Seriously, spending 8+ hours a day at a job you hate? Yeah, no thanks. Instead of working, you can protest working for The Man by looking at memes!
Office jobs can typically be pretty straight-laced and boring, so it can be tough to find some of that much-needed comedic relief from time to time. Sometimes you've gotta get creative when you want to be petty or start some drama at work, which is why we appreciate these clever people for their expert-level snark!
Everyone has a resident Annoying GuyTM in their office!
One of those things you didn't realize other people do.
Anyone who says that "work isn't everything" is full of sh*t and delusional. Most of us gotta work to survive and that means putting work over almost everything else in your life, perhaps with the exception of family.
So anyway, here are 16 amusing memes all about the stress of working that anyone (except the trust fund kids) can relate to! My office is extremely professional in all situations. We were recently in a crisis, and we reacted with decorum and poise and self control. The screaming, shouting, biting, and fist fights were just a complete coincidence, we swear.
Take your procrastination in stride and take it up another notch with some of these hilarious and very appropriate work memes all about how much of a struggle the week really is, what they don't
Work is an unfortunate place where you're forced to spend time with people you don't necessarily like for at least eight hours a day. Obviously this sandwich thief is an a-hole for stealing their coworker's lunch, but at the same time we can't really blame them for wanting to create a little office entertainment!
