A wise man once said "choose a job you love and you'll never have to work a day in your life." But HOW do we find a job that we love? Well, the wise man was strangely quiet about that one, which is why most of us end up working in jobs we hate. Still, if there's one thing jobs are good for it's providing us with a constant source of amusement. Take a look at this list of funny work tweets to see what we mean. Compiled by Bored Panda, they're sure to resonate with anybody who's life didn't turn out quite like they expected it to. Don't forget to vote for your favorite!

And this is how you create an awful atmosphere and stress at work. This is simply rude. Even if you hate someone you should remain nice to them.

Agreed. I've been working from home for about two years and while I sometimes miss talking with people, that feeling usually goes away after I get on a conference call with coworkers.

I think I can relate to it. Has been freelancing way too long. I should probably change it, but then again, where can I find a decent job which I can do in my PJs?

Oh hell no. 1) Yay I get to work from home. 2) I can't get connected to the work servers. Contact boss via private email letting them know you're working on it. 3) Play video games until noon on your personal PC/Console. 4) I can now get on the work servers. Answer 2 emails per hour to appear working. Be sure to take care of urgent stuff if needed (let's be honest) Play games in between. 5) start binge watching Supernatural. REPEAT

We used to have hours long meetings because everyone felt the need to ask some senseless question, maybe trying to prove their worth. The new boss came in, said she hated meetings, said everyone on the team brings value ("That's why you're here"), and from then on our meetings rarely went over 30 minutes!
Susanna Vesna 9 years ago
F**k these ppl! My boss used to bug me telling me to ask questions in big meetings so ppl noticed me. The first time he said it I politely nodded. Second time he mentioned it, I said I ask only when I really need to know smthing, and never just to show off! F****r never asked again!
Sara Shrader 9 years ago
I don't get this. I would always rather be in some senseless meeting than working. If you're slick enough you can play games on your smart watch or your laptop like you're taking notes. Remember when you were a kid and you could keep your teacher talking about whatever and skip considerable class time? Same principle applies

This happened to me once! :-) I was actually going to an interview, and the only place to change between work and the other place was the bathroom at work. I requested a half-day off and timed it to leave around lunch, but one guy was "working through lunch" that day. I didn't end up getting the job, which was bad, but also good, because this guy would have caught on.

That's why I never bother to ask if I can ask a question, I'm more like: Enter the office. "Quick question: [insert question]" Get answer "okay thanks, bye." Leaves office.

Question: Do normal people say question before asking a question? My mom doesn't understand it and always points it out when I do that(I didn't realize I had question in this post when I was thinking it over in mind until it was time to type XD)

Haha omg this was me when I was an administrator, we had a secret stash of 'good' stationary (aka. Nice grip ballpoint pens instead of the cheap plastic things etc.) and every now and then we would get someone notice us using one and ask us where we got it from. My answer? 'if I told you, I'd have to kill you' haha ???? whoever has hold of the stationery rule the office :-D everyone does you favors just to get a nice pen xD

Guy I shared an office with came in one morning, got his coffee, mumbled "I can't do this anymore" under his breath, and I didn't see him again until his retirement party a week later. I guess he had gone straight to HR and got the process started, spoke with our boss, and then went home for the day (it was a Friday, anyway).

You're a lucky one, a co-worker stole from my purse actually, took a picture of my credit card and used it to buy some jars and s**t, used a fake email address and shipping address but used her home PC (IP address). I work in IT and she was a programmer (dumbass)
