25 Memes to Send to Your Work Bestie

Starting a new job is stressful enough, but figuring out the office social scene is a whole different challenge. Will you find a work bestie or just awkwardly eat lunch alone while scrolling your phone? Sometimes, friendships spark over shared misery. Like suffering through team bonding activities.

At an old job, we once had a "fun" team bonding event that involved hiking. Hiking. Who thought that was a good idea? I like hiking, don't get me wrong, but I don't really want to go on a full-out hike in the middle of the workday and have to return to the office to finish up sending emails. I was new at the time, so I couldn't exactly protest. But somewhere between pretending to enjoy nature and desperately trying not to slip on a muddy trail, I ended up making a work bestie.

A work bestie is someone who makes long meetings bearable, laughs at the same Slack memes, and texts you during happy hour with, "Are we going?" If you've got that person, send them these 25 memes. And if not, maybe start by bonding over how much you both hate team bonding.
