'Another day, another stupid Excel chart': The best relatable work memes this week (December 1, 2025)

After a long weekend likely filled with a combination of eating, cooking, travelling, dealing with family members, and vegetating on the couch/your childhood bedroom, it could be difficult to even feel fully alive on this Monday morning, let alone put yourself in a state of mind that is ready to work. Even those who found themselves taking calls or sending emails over the holiday are likely to be bamboozled when hit with the full force of getting back into the office.

To get back into the swing of things, we first have to get in the mood. Whether this mood is going to be positive or not is optional. For those who find the idea of going back to work especially unbearable, work memes are here to remind you that you are not alone. At least at this time of year, there is only a short wait before the next vacation.
