'Why do you never smile at work?': The best relatable work memes this week (September 8, 2025)

There is never a good time to have a job if you do not enjoy what you do, but lest we forget, it also feels pretty bad to not have a job either. This is not to say that we should be grateful for poor working conditions and even poorer compensation, but it does put it into perspective that if you have a workplace to complain about right now, you are likely quite fortunate.

This isn't just because it enables you to pay your bills, but also because it allows you to even more deeply relate to the world of work memes. It is always nice to have access to an extra level of humor, even if it happens to be borne of frustration. It also offers a good coping mechanism for when you really, really wish you could quit, but your bank balance says otherwise. Go forth and enjoy these memes.
