26 Sassy Office Employee Memes to Include in Your OOO Reply

The end of the quarter is finally here, and office employees can hardly believe it. Run ragged by demanding managers, idiotic clients, and even more buffoon-like corporate suits, the email-slinging, lukewarm coffee enjoyers in their cubicle need a well-deserved break. Answering phones and replying to messages on your computer, whether it's on Teams, Slack, or good ol' Gmail, office work is more taxing than it's given credit for.

Sitting all day in a greige office space with fluorescent lights beaming onto your heads makes anyone yearn for the sweet serenity of the outdoors. Deficient in Vitamin C and patience, office employees still get the job done anyway. Middle management scuffles around the office space, yapping and barking at their employees to work harder, but little do they know, this late in the year, all motivation has gone out the window. It's the holidays in this office, and apart from the annual pizza party coming up, we have no holiday bonuses or end-of-the-year checks to keep us focused on our jobs. Instead, we'll spend the rest of 2025 gossiping with our favorite coworkers, sipping company-bought tea, and driving home in the dark at 5 pm.

Workers of all varieties are forced to do year-end reviews, looking back on a year spent creating shareholder value and slowly going insane. Although employment is a necessary evil for many of us, we must focus on our achievements instead of our manager's shortcomings. They may have our promotions and raises in the palm of their hands, but at least we'll get more than a jelly subscription t the end of the year; we leave 2025 behind knowing that we survived another year of being a cornerstone in the office. Without the hardest workers on the force, CEO's would never have a second house in Barbados, and we would never feel guilty on holiday.
So reward yourself this year. Take all of your PTO, gossip with your coworkers, and splurge on lunch takeout every now and then. You have earned at least that! Besides, we're answering emails and phones all day; it's not like office workers are ER surgeons with someone's life in the palm of their hands. Taking it slow, focusing on customer service, and taking a backseat to the office's biggest problems can be liberating.
