A Coffee-Break’s Worth of Work Funnies if You Need a Mid-Afternoon Pick-Me-Up

The work day is long enough as it is, but boredom and the absence of any tasks make it even more difficult to bear. Work humor has the power to turn even the most frowny frowns upside down, and if you don't believe me, the proof is in the memeing.

Do you miss the days when you could sleep in during the summertime and have a PB and J ready for you by noon, a la your mother? Nowadays, we have to skip the PB and go straight for the IL (iced latte). At least we can get some highly caffeinated laughs in before we have to banish ourselves back to our 5x4 cubicles… Sitting in silence for hours on end is not what evolution intended for humans. We're emotive, social beings! Why am I typing an emoji on Slack instead of chatting with a coworker and making those faces IRL? The system taunts us… but at least we have memes to get us chuckling to ourselves in between "Oh my, it's only 2 PM?" and "One hour left, will this day move any faster?"

If you're struggling and in need of some good vibes on your coffee break, look no further!
