No matter if you work in a tiny cubicle in a faceless megacorporation, a hipsterish open-plan office, a fast-food restaurant, or a warehouse, there are certain shared experiences that unite everyone. Getting coffee with your favorite work pal, gossiping at the watercooler, being so bored that you actually put in effort into your job, and becoming jaded as the years tick by are just some of these.

The ‘9-5 Life’ social media project captures these funny and relatable work moments in meme format. We’ve collected some of the most hilarious ones to entertain you during your coffee break (or, let’s be honest here, while you’re pretending to work while counting down the hours till the weekend).

Scroll down, upvote your fave memes, and don’t forget to tell us about the funniest things that happened to you at work recently, in the comments.

Bored Panda reached out to financial expert Sam Dogen, the author of 'Buy This, Not That: How to Spend Your Way to Wealth and Freedom' and the founder of 'Financial Samurai,' for a chat about the 9-5 work model, how to motivate employees, and how they, in turn, can learn to manage their managers.

"The 9-5 work model still has a place for necessity businesses in the services space. We're talking physical therapy, medicine, restaurants, flooring, and so forth. Customers need reliable businesses with reliable hours. However, for the technology and creator economy, the 9-5 work model is outdated. Having a regimented 9-5 schedule creates a lot of wasted time.

Let's be honest. Most people who go to work on a set schedule spend a good amount of hours surfing the net, chatting with colleagues, and taking lots of breaks. Instead, work hours should be more flexible to suit the modern-day needs of 'knowledge' workers today," Sam was candid about how things really are. Read on for our full interview with him about being professional, bold, and working with purpose in mind.
