Memes to remind you that you are not alone.
Independently testedUnbiased Demilked scoreFree to implementTools included
Someone somewhere has already probably said it, but truly some days "work is a real drag”. It’s a sentiment many of us can relate to, as we navigate through jobs that might not always bring us joy. But fear not, because there's a silver lining: the rise of online groups and memes that celebrate the anti-work ethos.
From niche communities to broad job networks, there's a shared sense of camaraderie in finding humour and solace in our work woes. And let's face it, sometimes a good meme is just the pick-me-up we need to power through the day.

Did I say that out loud? (he/him)cis/het: Lots of public bodies such as councils do this. They already know who they want for the job but are often legally required to advertise the position publicly. A complete waste of time and money.

Penguin Panda Pop: It's absolutely infuriating that actual members of government (in the UK at least) spout this utter nonsense. Saying that some jobs shouldn't earn a living wage is ridiculous. Capitalism says that cleaners don't deserve to live so we'll just go along with that, because we obviously don't need things to be cleaned.

Monoxide: I was ghosted by a company that was trying to headhunt me from my current role. Called, offered me a massive pay increase, I did 2 phone interviews, then... nothing. Not one single person out of 4 I was in communication with would return calls or emails. Im not mad about not getting the position (honestly, I wasnt super into it based on one of the bosses being a guy I used to work with), but you came TO ME... Then ghosted. I was annoyed and confused.
