Do what you love and you'll never work a day in your life. Oh, if only it were that easy! In reality, millions of people take whatever jobs they can get—just to put food on the table. And even those who adore what they do sometimes have days they wish they could hit snooze and go right back to sleep. Or skip that "quick" Zoom call that somehow always spirals into a two-hour existential crisis.

Whether you’re currently procrastinating a task you’ve been avoiding for weeks, taking a “mental health break” between meetings, or just need to escape the absurdity that is your 9-to-5 life, you've come to the right place...

Bored Panda has pulled the best memes from a Facebook page called Work Meme of the Day. It has more than 544,000 members comforting each other with painfully relatable memes about the highs and lows of being gainfully employed. It’s like a support group. But without the talking. So get ready to laugh, cry, or maybe even reconsider your entire career path as you scroll through the list. Don't forget to upvote your favorites!

We also take a look at the 10 jobs at risk of being replaced by AI in 2025. And you'll find that info between the images.

    First on the list is data entry clerks. The reason being that data entry involves transferring information from one format to another, which is an ideal task for AI. "Machine learning and optical character recognition (OCR) systems can now extract data from physical documents, emails, or web forms with high accuracy and minimal supervision," notes LiveCareer.com.

    The report adds that some data tasks still need a human eye, but most traditional data entry jobs are quickly disappearing. So what should you do?

    "If you're currently in data entry, consider turning towards roles in data analysis or data management. Strengthen your skills in tools like Excel, SQL, or Python for data manipulation and analysis," advise the experts. "These fields are expanding as businesses require skilled professionals to derive insights from large datasets and implement AI-driven solutions."

    If you're a telemarketer, you should also brace yourself. "Cold calling for sales usually follows a script, which makes it easy for AI systems to handle," notes the report. "These voice tools can sound human, respond to basic questions, and keep the conversation going based on predefined rules."

    Consider a shift into digital marketing, customer success, or sales roles where relationship-building and strategic thinking are key, suggest the LiveCareer experts. They add that now is a good time to learn about digital marketing tools, CRM systems, and social media engagement strategies to stay competitive.

    Customer service reps that deal with basic support might also want to reconsider their career choice. "Many customer service requests are simple and repetitive, and they include things like password resets, checking order status, or billing questions. These types of issues often follow a set script, making them ideal for automation," warns the report.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    "AI-powered chatbots and virtual assistants can now handle these tasks quickly and accurately, often without customers realising they’re not talking to a real person," it adds.

    But all is not lost. LiveCareer's experts suggest transitioning into more specialized customer success roles that require higher levels of expertise and empathy, such as customer relationship management, technical support, or client training. You might want to upskill in areas like troubleshooting, product knowledge, or industry-specific needs sooner rather than later.

    Knew a maintenance guy back in the early eighties, absolute idiot. When he "fixed" something, it might last a couple of shifts. Constantly causing accidents while working on machines. He grabbed a 240 volt live wire once, because he forgot to power down the machine. Threw him 10 feet into a chain link fence, but didn't hurt him at all. And he didn't learn anything.

These tasks are repetitive and follow a predictable pattern, making them ideal for automation," cautions the report, adding that AI systems can now handle these processes quickly and efficiently, reducing the need for human cashiers in many settings.

    If, like millions of people, you hold this job title, you might want to level up to a role in retail management or customer experience, where you can apply your understanding of consumer behavior. "You could also explore opportunities in logistics, supply chain management, or technology implementation within retail environments," adds the report.

    During the 2008 financial crisis, the restaurant I was working for refused to cut staff. He was an awesome boss who overpaid everyone. When he wouldn't take my recommendations, I showed him how to eliminate my position, bring in two people to do my job(s) and still save five figures... I didn't give him an option to say no. I still came in occasionally to help with the computers and inventory program I wrote.

    Yeah, my boss got control of the company through a divorce. I was the corporate Controller. I am certified in 13 different accounting programs. She thought because she was a 5th grade teacher, she could "easily" do my job. She f*cked everything up so bad our CPA asked her to bring me back. Her ego would never allow for that to happen, so she had to hire a new Controller at almost twice my old salary. Eat sh*t, Ilona.

    For those who have no idea what this is about: pianos are made of wood and felt which absorb moisture. Too must moisture and the wood swells causing keys and action parts to stick and drag. Too little moisture and the wood dries out and cracks. The humidistat system is a chamber with water, three heating rods, and a humidity sensor. If the piano gets too humid the sensor energizes the tow heater bars mounted under the piano and dries the wood. If the sensor detects low humidity, it heats a bar with a cloth that wicks water from the water chamber and steam adds moisture to the piano. It keeps the humidity around the piano at about 30-40%. It helps keep the tuning stable.

    These sexist comments are not it

    LiveCareer's experts also believe that some copy editors and proofreaders are at risk of being replaced by robots. AI tools are now advanced enough to catch common grammar mistakes, punctuation errors, and even tone inconsistencies in text, they say.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    "Some platforms go beyond basic editing, offering sentence rephrasing and writing suggestions that closely mimic the work of human editors, making routine proofreading tasks increasingly automated," reads the report.

    So what now? "To stay relevant, consider switching to strategic roles in content marketing, creative direction, or communications, where you can leverage your editorial skills in new ways," say the experts. "Gaining expertise in areas like content strategy, SEO, or digital content management will enhance your skill set and make you a more competitive professional."

    I will be on vacation next week, for 5 days. I have notified every single person who contacts me regularly, it has been on the calendar for 6 months, my out of office email lists, by subject, who to contact while I am gone, and I was asked repeatedly by upper management how they could contact me while I was gone. There are about 4,500 employees, and I am not even a manager! My supervisor had to literally go tell them, in person, they are burning me out and if they need something to come to him.

    In contrast: I will decide at the end of the month when in August or September I'm taking 2 weeks off. I'll discuss the holiday with my line manager about a week before I leave. I'm involved in various projects, but all I'll need to do is to create an out of office message, directing people to my supervisor. Yes, I'm European. Oh, and 2 weeks is short for me, I'm used to the 3 weeks everyone takes for a summer holiday in Germany.

    My team in Scotland: one of us going "Hey guys, I'm feeling really under the weather today, sorry, I'll be a bit slower". The rest of us "Hey, just take a long afternoon nap, don't worry, we'll do your part of the work in the meantime." This feels so good - and because you're not stressed out about "missing work", you're better much sooner. :) Try humane work conditions, everyone, it's better for you AND for the company.

    I was a self employed bookkeeper for most of my life. I had to explain to more than one company owner that they were NOT my Boss, and were in fact, my client. So when I told one guy I wouldn't be there the following Thursday & Friday, he had a problem. He said he didn't remember me requesting those days off. I reminded him AGAIN that he was my CLIENT and not my employer - and that I wasn't requesting anything, I was informing him. Problem? Read the f*cking contract.

    I hate it when they pull vacation out from under you. Only happened twice but the second was the last. Got a call while 2 states over on vacation "I know you are going on vacation today but we need you here." Me: sorry can't. Manager: sorry but I have already canceled your vacation for you. Me: I am way out of town. I am in Alabama and that is a 12 hour drive. (Manager puts boss on the phone.) Boss: why are you out of state when you are scheduled for work? Me: because until 10 minutes ago I was on vacation. Silence... Boss: ok I see the whiteout... have a good week. Got back a few days later and the manager was no longer there.

    In Germany the company cannot refuse your vacation, unless there's a very good business reason for it - and no, "Peter is ill" is usually not seen as a good reason, it's the company's duty to have a staff cover that can make up for that. In my 35 years of work I've never had a holiday refused, despite working in customer service, finance, and call centres.

    Paralegals and legal assistants might be looking for new jobs, too. According to the report, these people typically spend their days sifting through case files, organizing evidence, and researching past rulings—tasks that require handling large volumes of data and following a clear, logical structure.

    "These repetitive and detail-oriented duties are well within the reach of AI, which can process vast amounts of information with speed and accuracy," it reads, adding that you may want to consider shifting to a role in legal technology, such as legal operations or legal tech consulting, where your legal expertise can be combined with cutting-edge tools.

    "If you have a solid background in law, consider branching out into project management, litigation support, or compliance positions within the growing tech sector, where legal knowledge is constantly in demand," adds LiveCareer.

    Funny work meme showing surprised man’s face reacting to minimal wage and minimal work in an office humor context

    Kalani Allen:

    Got it backwards.
    Employee does minimal or unskilled work.
    Company pays accordingly.
    Want more pay? Add value. When you make your organization more money from your labor they will increase pay.

    Vegard Witsø:

    The logic breaks down when the skilled and diligent employee does take on extra responsibility: If he's lucky, his title might inflate a bit, but his wage typically doesn't just by itself. He has to demand it. Not so easy to do, if you are the diligent type. And you see it everythere around you: There's plenty of people working 60 hours weeks, who aren't rich. And amongst rich people, many enough aren't working hard at all. There's no connection between working hard and getting paid.

    Is it any wonder “nobody wants to work anymore” when this is the attitude? Does the employee give you their time and labor? If so, you owe them a fair wage. And remember; when they force AI on us to “save money,” it’s the shareholders that will reap the benefit. We won’t be seeing lower prices or better service.

Boss laughed I my face and told Mme to go home until I was sober. Next day I came back and was followed by someone from the state labor board. It was then brought up I was working under min wage for 2 years with the paystubs to prove it. The higher-ups were pissed about it.

    Suddenly, a shot rang out. The maid screamed.

    Bookkeepers should consider transitioning into roles like financial analyst, auditor, or financial consultant before AI comes for your job. Your ability to interpret complex financial data and provide strategic insights will be highly valued in these roles, say the career experts. "Enhancing your skills in financial modelling, budgeting, or data analysis will set you up for success in the evolving financial landscape," they add.

    But why is this particular position at risk? "Bookkeeping involves repetitive tasks like tracking transactions, managing ledgers, and preparing basic financial reports—all rule-based functions that are increasingly being automated," notes the report. "With AI handling these tasks, businesses can streamline their operations and reduce human error in financial processes."

    Right? I refuse to use Uber Eats or Door Dash or any of those kinds of services. Why? They expect me to tip them prior to providing a service. Do you tip your hairdresser BEFORE they cut your hair? Do you tip the gal who does your pedicure BEFORE she does your toes? No, of course not. So I choose to call in my pizza and drive 5 minutes to pick it up. The person behind the counter takes 3 steps back, grabs my pizza and takes three steps forward to hand it to me. NO. I am not tipping you. If anything, I should get a f*cking discount for picking it up myself.

    Bad news for those working frontline at fast food outlets and restaurants. "In fast food and restaurant settings, many day-to-day tasks—like taking orders, prepping simple meals, and cleaning—are repetitive and easy to automate," say LiveCareer's experts. "These duties follow predictable patterns, making them ideal for machines and AI to take over."

    Here's what you can do instead: "Consider more creative or managerial roles within the hospitality and food industries, such as culinary innovation, restaurant management, or supply chain management," suggests the report. "You can also look into food service tech roles that involve developing or managing AI systems for restaurants."

    On the bright side, at my work we actually have little to do until it we catch a customer, so, I have plenty of time to tell horrendous jokes.

    The next one is not too surprising—as we're already seeing this happening—but, LiveCareer warns that warehouse workers should start upskilling or looking for a new job.

    "Warehouse jobs often involve tasks like picking products from shelves, packing boxes, labelling, and tracking inventory, all of which follow set routines and physical patterns," reads the report. "These tasks don’t require complex decision-making and can be easily mapped out for machines to perform with precision, speed, and around-the-clock reliability."

    ADVERTISEMENT

    You can consider building skills in logistics coordination, inventory control, or warehouse technology operations. "You could transition into roles like warehouse supervisor, supply chain analyst, or robotics technician," adds the LiveCareer report. "Learning how to work with automation systems, understand logistics software, or manage safety and efficiency standards will make you a valuable part of the next-generation supply chain workforce."

His first job after graduating with an IT degree was working in Sydney, in a call centre for an internet service provider. Customers used to hear his accent and get so annoyed about talking to an "Indian call centre". He told me one lady didn't believe him when he told her he was located in Darling Harbour, and tried to "catch him out" by asking him to describe what he could see out the window

    Never take a counter offer from your current employer. They didn’t offer you more until they knew you were considering leaving. If they only offered because you were leaving, they will hold a grudge. Guess who will be the first to go when they can replace you?

    Some of the companies I worked for did it differently. No money for a raise. If you pointed out you could get more at another company, they would say that they won't go into a bidding war. And BTW they would always say "we pay a competitive wage". Even though you have to be careful about it, the truth is that if you want to get the best pay you have to be willing to get a job at another company and quit the current one periodically.

    Lastly, entry-level market research analysts are doing work that can potentially be done by robots. "At the junior level, market research often involves collecting large datasets, spotting trends, and preparing basic reports. These tasks are repetitive, structured, and heavily data-driven, making them perfect for automation," explains the report. "AI tools can easily handle data collection, run statistical analyses, and highlight patterns without needing human input for the basics."

    LiveCareer suggests shifting toward roles that blend analytical thinking with strategic decision-making, such as business analyst, data scientist, or strategy consultant.

    "Focus on building skills in data visualisation, data storytelling, and tools like Power BI, Tableau, or Python for analysis," reads the report. "Learning how to turn raw data into actionable insights will set you apart in a market that values both tech fluency and human judgment."

    I worked in retail for 26 years. After finishing college, I got a job that fit perfectly with my criminal Justice degrees. I will Never work in an office again! I didn't fit in with the click immediately, and it was my first office job. The expectation of what I was supposed to know right off the bat, and the director knowing it was my first job, was ridiculous! I was a little slow at first, but I had three jobs in one. I was the administrative assistant, worked with the others to help them with their jobs, and I was a child advocate. It took a couple of months to really get a grip on all of it, but I rarely messed up. Come to find out, my director was crazy, literally! One of the three other employees, was the directors pet. No matter how hard I tried to get along with him, he would stab me in the back. As much, as I loved the job itself, I just couldn't put up with their buls$$$! After two years of it, I walked out, never looking back. I became a correctional officer, after.

    "Jobs that involve direct human interaction, such as therapists, healthcare workers, educators, and customer service roles that rely on empathy and understanding, are less likely to be fully automated," reads the report.

    Yes, this would be the US. In most cases, they can let you go without any notice, but the opposite is true too, you can quite without any notice. There are exceptions, like if a big company is laying off a certain amount of people, they have to give a month notice. The "two weeks" is "customary" but not required. There are others that are in unions (but that isn't really common outside of manufacturing) or consulting that have "contracts", that would of course have to adhere to that contract.

    What do they usually hold over your head to get you to abide by that notice in the US, out of interest? I had to stick out a 4 week notice period recently that was absolute t*****e, but if I hadn't my company could have not paid out my 200+ hours of leave owing so I had no choice if I didn't want to lose all that money. Is it the same reason usually with notice in the US?

    It can be. If I had given 2 weeks notice at my last job, they would have fired me on the spot and not paid out my vacation time. Other companies have other policies. There is no national or even state standards, unless it involves large layoffs.

Apparently this was “disrespectful” enough to end the call and I could call his boss if I didn’t like it. You bet his boss heard about it).

    Idk who downvoted you but have an upvote. In my experience as a nurse, the best nurses are the seasoned ones with the "i don't get paid enough to deal with this bs" attitude. I have seen plenty of examples of them actually being the ones who truly care for and listen to the patients. They're also the ones you can rely on to help you with disrespectful patients if you're a "wimp" nurse like me.

    YES. My rule for my kids is no slurs (I call them hurtful words) and no swearing at a person (you can't say "f.uck you). Otherwise, have at it. They're 12 and 6 and hardly ever swear; I just took all the fun out of it 🤷‍♀️

    I went into a busy bakery and bought a few tasty treats. When I gave the young lady cash and waited for change, she had a look of horror on her face. She thrust her hand into the till and gave me nearly as much change back as I'd given her in a note. I quickly worked out what it should be and gave her the difference back. She looked at me as if I was mathematical genius. Not sure how long she lasted.

    Not brown nosing at all. Networking. And it doesn't have to be someone on the leadership team - all it takes is someone to drop "hey, I know a guy that would be a good addition" for you. Before I got this job, I would meet up with my current boss for drinks whenever I was in town. I wish I understood the importance of networking early in my career (especially the first time I was laid off - I was so confidant in my indispensability that I was completely blindsided).

    Yeah this sign would make me go out of my way to find that poop smelling spray and spend 30 minutes in the bathroom every day and spray the hell out of it right before I come out every time.

    We do the lottery twice a year. A few months ago, my wife told me she got depressed when I talked about it. That's when I knew I talked and thought about too much - not when I used ChatGPT to get advice to try and invest my imaginary money in such a way that it was low risk but with enough of a yield that my wife and I didn't have to work full-time, but when my wife said that looking that stuff up was depressing. Completely correct, but I still like to daydream.

    Think ya got confused there bud. It is indeed "a Lego" when it's just one Lego and is the object of a sentence. You aren't required to step on multiple Lego each time. If you are worried about the singular/plural version of the word, I see where you're going because it's the same word: a Lego or many Lego. But you can't just be dropping articles all w***y-nilly. So you can feel safe going and stepping on a single Lego.

    Just a reminder: the business CANNOT use your donation as a tax write off. And who cares if they “take credit” for it when they give the money to the charity? The charity gets the money that can then benefit those who receive their services. If you believe in the charity and have the money, go ahead and do it.

    The business SHOULD NOT use your donation as a tax write off. But as a former IRS auditor, I can assure you that some will - by accident, of course. If you are going to do this, do it at a business that will match your contribution.

It was due to hit in the morning and I worked 3-11 shift ( when it was still a thing) and the hospital i worked for at the time called the whole shift of us offering to have maintenance workers pick us up if we didn't have vehicles that were good in the snow. ( like anything is during a blizzard) well I had just bought an suv with 4 wheel drive so I declined the offer bc if we did accept the ride we would have to sleep at the hospital until the storm let up. Heck no, I clicked out after my shift and drove 20mph all the way home.
