The holiday break was not long enough. We wait all year to get our holidays and every time we dread going back to our desk. Not only have we completely forgotten how to do our job, but our coworkers who didn't take time off seem to have run the company into the ground. Terrific. As a little consolation prize, our extra exhausted employees have procrastinated every single project for the last few months and they're all staring us straight in the face for the new year. Workers are really starting to regret saying 'let's circle back in 2024' for every single inconvenience.

Welp, at least we're all in the same sinking boat!

Even our bosses feel the icy twinge of sorrows as we come back to clock-in for a 40 hour week. Gone are the days of merriment and carols, and gone are the days of wandering a very-busy Costco in search of the perfect ham. Those were simpler times. Now we have spreadsheets, emails, and commutes to look forward to... OH WAIT– I forgot one other thing: Memes.

The one thing that can revive a lost coworker is a delightfully dark batch of black humored memes. So scroll onward to enjoy this wonderous selection of self-deprecating work memes that'll refuel your soul with commiseration and glee.
