Technology is singlehandedly the best yet most flustering thing to happen to the workplace. Sure, it's made work increasingly more efficient. Almost too efficient with the invention of AI, but overall, technology has been a great advancement for the workforce...except when it decides randomly not to work. A lot of us grew up with technology that just randomly chose not to work. You hit the side of the TV to fix the signal and restart a desktop monitor when it randomly freezes. You know the drill. Sometimes, technology just doesn't work, and not even the IT workers are sure what to do. Sometimes, a quick reboot is all you need. Sometimes, you need to download a bazillion gigabytes of software to perform an update; sometimes, you just need to clear up some room for more storage. The possibilities are endless.
I think the funniest example we see of the phenomenon is in virtual meetings. Sometimes cameras or microphones just flat out don't work, and everyone's used to it. You could show up to a meeting with your camera off and claim it's not working, and no one would even bat an eye. Everyone is terrified of AI taking over the workplace, yet we still have modern-day tech that chooses when it wants to work or not. It's pretty comical. So, let's toast to the trials and tribulations of technology in the workplace with these 25 memes below, perfect for the employees in need of tech support.
