Do you get the "Sunday Scaries?"

If you don't know what that is, I am so jealous. It is basically the fear you start to feel in the pit of your stomach on Sunday night as you mentally prepare to go back to work on Monday. It's like, we hardly get any days to ourselves, just two! And one of them is wasted on feeling nervous about the upcoming work day. When will we get a good half-and-half work week? Like, three days working, four days play? Or, fine, I'd take four days play three days working. It's annoying, but UGH I need an extra day to myself. Please cooperate, overlords! I need more honk shoos, I need more time to hang with my friends and family, and I most definitely need more me time. That will probably be used to scroll through memes for hours, but let me live my life!

Until that impossible day comes, all the employees of the world and I will meme about the workforce forever. You want that report by the end of the day? How about a meme featuring Jim from The Office? Or can I interest you in a still from SpongeBob that perfectly represents how I feel about all of your micromanaging? Your pickins' are below, boss!
