work memes

Welcome back to hell, y'all! It's a brand new week full of pain and we've got the work memes to fuel your hatred for all five days of misery. Just don't send them to your boss. Then you have no idea what will happen, because hell hath no fury like a boss who figures out you haven't done any work since you started working at the company a year ago. So make sure to keep on your procrastinating and not slack off, you never know when a review of your "work" could be around the corner. So get someone else to do it for you, like maybe an intern, or the janitor. Anyone, as long as it isn't you. But enjoy trying to find kindred spirits with these relatable work memes all about the work week.

Job interviews can feel pretty absurd, especially after you've answered the same questions for every position you've ever applied for. What are your biggest strengths and weaknesses? Where do you see yourself in five years? Describe yourself in three words. Don't you ever wish that you could say something totally insane just to spice things up a bit? It would even be interesting to see someone be brutally honest. Why do you want to work here? Well, there's this thing called rent, you see, and I need to pay it.

We've got some ridiculous memes depicting far-fetched job interview scenarios that poke fun at a grueling process we've all had to endure. Perhaps these memes will give you some ideas for your next Zoom interview. 

Everyday we're bombarded with news, tweets, and clickbait about that one politician who did some horrible thing, or that one millionaire celebrity who broke up with that other millionaire celebrity, and it can get pretty damn tiresome. We get it, these people are Very Important. Sometimes we just want to see some simple, funny content that resonates with us common folk. That's why we put together this big batch of comically relatable memes and tweets for anyone who doesn't give a crap about the latest hot news. These are memes for the rest of us. Memes for the people. 

When the pesky feeling known as boredom comes a-knockin' it can be hard to decide how to eliminate it. Do you bite the bullet and do something responsible like clean your home or organize your filing cabinets? Do you decide to fill the void with some exercise? Or turn the brain off further with some television? These are all worthy options, with some being more palatable than others. We prefer to scroll through the internet, looking at the latest gossip, and, of course, a whole lot of memes. If these shareable tidbits of humor appeal to you too, then we've got the amusement you've been looking for. 

We've all been there. Sitting at your agonizing 9-5 or service gig, languishing. Feeling overworked, demotivated - or even worse: completely and utterly disrespected. In these scenarios, it's often much easier to fantasize about leaving than it is to take action. As jobs are hard to come by, this is perfectly understandable. But if you need a little inspiration on how to exit your prison of employment, you can look to these brave souls who quit in enviable style. 

Happy hump day! The week is almost halfway over but we still get to do whatever the f**k we want! Okay, not really. We can't exactly party with friends or go see a new movie or anything else that involves large crowds. You know what we can do, though? Look at all the memes. We've got just the dank collection to start you off on your epic scrolling adventure. And when you're done with this hilarious batch, we've got even more content here and here. Bon voyage! 

Whether you're working from home, stuck in an office, or powering through long shifts in retail or service, we can all relate to the daily grind woes of 9-5 life. Sometimes just the routine alone can be an existential drag that gets you thinking, 'is this all there is?' But you know what, at least we've got hilarious memes to pull us out of those dark thoughts. With a few holidays right around the corner, at least we've got something to look forward to. Until then, find solace in these relatable work memes—you are not alone!

Picture this: It's several months into the global pandemic and the governor has decided to allow indoor dining again. You're considered one of the 'lucky ones' because you got to keep your minimum wage job as a server in a restaurant, and although taking to-go orders only has been pretty chill, the mountain of bills that looms over you everyday has you really missing those tips. Strangely, customers don't feel the need to tip if it's take-out, but they'll call you a hero as if you volunteer to be an 'essential worker' and don't actually have rent to pay. Although you've got a lot of qualms about serving customers again, you feel like you don't really have a choice. You reassure yourself that your customers will be respectful and follow social distancing rules. Maybe they'll even leave a decent tip—you're working in the middle of a health crisis, after all. You don't have the benefit of working safely from home, and any decent person will understand the risk you're taking, right? Oh how naive you are.

Your first customers arrive on the day of reopening and to your dismay, it's a group of ten and they're already drunk, masks hanging down under their noses. They immediately ignore the social distancing policy notices posted on every surface of the restaurant and start pushing tables together. They ignore your pleas to respect your coworkers and other patrons. Your manager doesn't help you. You're pissed off. After hours of rudeness and belligerence, finally the assh*le table asks for the bill. They spend another half hour drunkenly squabbling over the check before demanding that you split it ten ways. You somehow muster up the last bit of civility deep within you and smile through the rage. Finally, they leave. It's the moment you've been dreading. Again, you try and reassure yourself—surely they tipped at least 15%. They ordered bottomless margaritas. They stayed for five hours. Surely they tipped...You pick up the pile of checks and examine the first one. Nothing. Then the next. Nope. Your stomach drops as you get to the last check and read the word 'zero' scrawled onto the tip line. Dejected and exhausted, you look at the clock. Five more hours of your shift to go. The next group walks in.

Whether this scenario feels familiar or not, it's important for everyone to understand just how shitty it is to be a server sometimes, especially during a plague. Not only does treating service industry workers like literal garbage make their lives a living hell, it poisons the soul of the evil-doer. Treat workers with respect and don't forget to tip—it's not that damn hard. Alternatively, if being a jerk is the only thing you know how to do and you truly believe that treating people like dirt is a valid personality trait, you can simply stay at home. The restaurant industry doesn't need mean customers in order to thrive. We've collected some frustrating experiences that servers shared on r/TalesFromYourServer. Hopefully these stories will either humble people who frequently dine out or give solace to those who hate their jobs. 

Slaving away 9-5 may be an unfortunate reality, but we've got to pay the bills somehow. These memes and pics sum up the way we feel about the drudgery - and we can enjoy them at work, to boot. Just don't let your irritating boss see. 

Quitting one's job is often as hard as breaking up with someone. Whether you have had a positive employment experience or absolutely wanted to die, it's often hard to find the right words to let people down. If you're having difficulty telling your boss to f*ck off, let these creative people serve as inspiration.  

If you're pretty damn sick of emails, zoom meetings, and work from home life, we feel you. When the monotony of nine to five life becomes an unbearable drag, we turn to memes, because memes totally get us. Take a break from all those slack messages and excel spreadsheets to enjoy some hilariously relatable office work memes.
