Hello, dear Readers, welcome to Bored Panda. We’ll be your witty servers this evening. We have something tantalizing to share with you. The main dish consists of hilariously relatable server life memes with a side dish of, “Oh, God, that’s literally my life.” And for dessert, we have a fabulous concoction that we like to call Laughing Through The Pain(™). What can we get you to drink with that?

Working as a server or waiter can be utterly exhausting, thoroughly frustrating, and make you reevaluate what you think you know about humankind. It’s a tough job that can leave you daydreaming about greener pastures. The r/Serverlife subreddit is an online community that is dedicated to servers to talk and vent about work. Some of their memes are absolutely hilarious… and incredibly relatable to anyone who’s ever waited tables.

Scroll down for their funniest and most accurate memes, Pandas. While you’re upvoting the memes that hit waaay too close to home (or, well, work), have a think about what tips you’d share with someone who just started waiting tables. Don’t forget to tip your servers!
