50 Funny Memes To Help You Get Through The Work Day

8 hour day also assumed you lived and worked close by - none of this 90 min commute each way.

Yep, sadly I'm the second one but I'll never learn

Always aim to be the 2nd best in any role. Good enough to be valued, not good enough for more work.

Got my receipt right here.

And your sick leave. You’re not a hero for getting other people sick.

I USED to be that person. No more.

I like to bury my sadness at work deep down until it emerges as a mental illness

Sure. I once temped at Fox, years and years ago. Imagine my glee.

Or the company went belly up not long after you left. Or the a*****e boss who made your life hell is now in prison for (take your pick of crimes bosses have committed). Or you see your ex-boss working at Mickey Ds.

working as a cleaner for a company. I have several clients. I had one steady client for 15hrs/week. The big CEO of that company (HQ in Brussels, not my actual client) decided our cleaning company was too expensive and we lost the contract. New company was waaaaayyy cheaper.... yeah, because they said they could clean the place in 8 hrs. Guess what, they cant. Apparently the place is a dump now. Also big communication failure as the new cleaner just doesnt speak dutch at all so they also cant ask her to pay attention to certain things or tell her she forgot something. Ran into someone the other day and she wnet all dramatic and begged "cant you come back??" i just laughed :-D and said "tell the big guys in Brussels!"

I had worked for years at a big corporation when they changed my supervisor to a guy who was a complete d**k. So things went badly after that, but my wife worked in supervision with him, and I heard through the grapevine that he said what's he going to do, quit? Two weeks later I put in my notice and I've been at my current company for about 17 years now. And that prior company completely went to hell. Yes my wife left it too. But before that I got to know that he got demoted and ended up working for my wife who treated him pretty strictly. Ha.

Got a wrongful termination once - constructive dismissal. Guy went through 7 after me in 6 months before they finally admitted that just maybe it wasn't me.

Even better; a place I once worked at who fired me went under. Took all you f*****s to Hell with me

That's the best part of leaving a job is them falling apart without me !

When I quit from one place where I was employed because I felt way overworked, they had to hire 3 people to do the work I did and they fired my manager and then hired a replacement for her position.

My husband asked for a raise at his job of nearly 20 years and warned them denying the raise would cause him to walk. They called his bluff and he started a new position 3 weeks later. They're still struggling to try and replace him with 4 new people at $21 an hour each, and they can't get any of them to stay longer than a few months. They wouldn't give him $25 an hour, but now they can't even replace him for $84 an hour. He's much happier at this newer job.

The grocery store I worked for in my 20s is now out of business 😁😁😁

I did a little dance when the company I used to work for lost their contract and now the call center has unionized.

That's why whenever I gave notice, they were pissed. Writing, wall.

Several times.

The last company I worked at went so far south that within 3 years of my departure they shut their doors. The Glassdoor reviews got savage during those 3 years.

I left a place that closed within a year lol

I once put in my two weeks notice in and 3 days after I left the business closed. Not only did I have perfect timing I kinda got the last laugh because the owner was an absolute d**k and had to file bankruptcy. Good Times

I was laid off from Nortel in early 2001with six months pay. Later, the morale went through the floor and 'redundancies' were given ONE month pay. (Interestingly, most of the top executives stayed until the bitter end, on inflated salaries.) They laid off all the income producing (ie sales engineers) and dealer assistance personnel, and wondered why their income tanked! At least I was shunted out while the going was good! But it was very sad to see all that great technology being sold off for a bargain price, to ultimately disappear, and eliminating yet another competitor for Cisco.

Hell yes. Every time I talk to an ex-coworker

Planning on it...

Good joke, I laughed.

Try working midnights. Two nights off feels like one. One night off feels like nothing.

The corporate overlords love this language. They want people working 40+ without overtime. It's evil.

So wrong… I get so much work done from home. Introvert here.

YES! I worked the same place for 12 years and they are in this death spiral right now and I feel like I need popcorn because I got out three years ago.

I used to work for a government department where we held meetings to discuss what should be on the agenda for the next meeting

Yeah, why should i work for a management that so inept at organising things that everything is always done 'under pressure'?

The place I used to work, they sent a trainer who had never worked in our department and had zero knowledge to train the new employees. I was assigned the mentor once they finished the training. First thing I told them is to forget whatever they have learned because she knows s**t. 'we-were-told-to-do-xyz-for-abc-situation' became a usual statement followed by my 'forget-what-she-taught-you-if-you-want-to-continue-working'. And yes, each one of them cleared the accreditation.

Boss makes a dollar. You make a dime. Take your shits on company time. Found scratched into a wooden sign on the restroom door that said," only use restroom on scheduled breaks.

We're only here for the money

Management: "No-one wants to work anymore!"

Learn and earn or turn and burn ❤️‍🔥

In all seriousness the best way to handle this as a candidate is to say "I've been offered $X" by another employer. Never disclose your salary

And get free food, and a bed

Every damn time.

If sleeping isn't fun I don't know what is

Make sure to wear gloves while hiding the body

Sensible wages, sensible taxes. Enough with the minimum wage below subsistence level. Pay according to value delivered. You'll get a surprise at how much retail and service personnel are worth.

Oh my sweet summer child.

Old blue blood money

Facts.

I found in a fortune cookie a saying that goes like this “ everyone has a photographic memory, some just don’t have film” I put that little thing on the copier, doubled the size, took that and doubled that size, cut it out and put on my wall, when my coworkers repetitively ask me the same questions I point to it

Only 5 ???

But at least I can sit around in my underwear, eat cookies, and moan about my existence.

It's not employee burouty, it's employers exploiting. Push back, work your wage.

Unless you are one of those "extroverts"

Huh...didn't know that was an option...

Oh so true. Take a five day vacation, with weekends before and after. By the end of the first day, it's like there was no time off. Nobody did s**t except put it on my desk.

Always say you are trying to quit. It makes you seem like self-improvement is your goal and gives you an out to take peaceful solo 10 minute breaks twice an hour.

Hide, Just hide every working day

The realisation that you're the reason they left

Literally got mad at my coworker when I bumped into him on the stairwell, he comes in earlier than I do and I hadn't even clocked in yet and he's tryna ask me questions and say oh I need xyz in an email I'm like ??? My guy can I CLOCK IN FIRST??
