Having a job can be a blessing and a curse. Sure, you get paid, but you also need to sit in long meetings with annoying managers, fill out HR’s surveys, and squeeze into deadlines that are impossible to deliver without sacrificing your personal evenings. It gets exhausting.
So to survive another day, people are letting each other know they’re not alone in dealing with the daily corporate struggles. The Facebook group ‘Work Memes’ is full of relatable content that turns frustration into jokes we can all laugh at. Until it’s time to do something about it.

Friend in college worked as a cashier at a grocery store. The job would have been perfect for her except for all the people. She had a classic resting b***h face so was constantly being told to “smile!” Left that job to become an aide at the State School working the night shift.MUCH better fit.

As Kent and I lobbed snarky comments across the office....glorious!
I'm always saying “idiot” under my breath. Regarding customers. Not coworkers. So far.
If I had done that in my last job, I wouldn't have run out until the thunderous applause had at least died down a little.
Truth. I hate it when after the moment I think of something better to say as I'm repeating such incidents in my head.
This is the problem we mentioned last month that you choose to ignore
Is there some time of bank or reward for when our temper is held in vs releasing? I'll take a hug or a lollipop.
Do they realize those memes are what keep a lot of people from rage-quiting?
"You're such a suck-up"..."Maybe, but my day flies by" (staying busy)
