30 Funniest Boss Memes To Send To Your Co-Workers
A Different Kind of Motivation
When your boss arrives in an extravagant Lamborghini, it’s hard not to be in awe. This luxury vehicle stands as a beacon of success for some, but for others, it’s a reminder of how far they have to go.
His boss highlights an ironic motivation for hard work, leaving employees both inspired and amused! After all, we’re the ones doing the hard work for him!
Proof of Dedication
Just another day in the life of an exceptionally dedicated employee. When your boss is relentless about needing proof, you have to get a bit creative, even if it means staging an overly dramatic hospital scene.
We can’t deny it; this might be going a bit too far. But, hats off for the effort and creativity! This is probably the most extreme example of going above and beyond to prove a point to a boss.
Thrift Store Troubles
Working for a boss who is concerned about appearances can be exhausting, as showcased by Grace’s experience here. Bragging about her thrift store finds to a coworker led to an unintended, and pretty shallow, reprimand.
Her boss’s reaction makes it clear he feels her thrifting habits reflect poorly on him, implying he doesn’t pay his employees adequately. The irony is, his response just proves her point even further.
Disguised Distractor
In today’s world of constant notifications and social media addiction, it’s tough to stay off your phone. But rules are rules, right? This clever employees found a loophole that keeps the boss in the dark about his sneaky text-checking habits.
While it’s always best to adhere to workplace policies, you can’t help but admire the ingenuity here. Just hope the boss doesn’t catch on, or it’s back to good old-fashioned focus and discipline at work!
Only Wednesday Blues
Being late to work consistently is never a good look, but everyone’s a bit more relaxed when it’s just Wednesday, right? Unfortunately, her boss is clearly keeping a strict count.
When you hear ‘third time this week,’ you might think it’s an exaggeration, but she’s just surprised it took until Wednesday for someone to notice. We all wish we could be this bold in the face of authority!
Accidental Overtime
Sometimes, staying late at work can have unexpected benefits. Your boss might even praise you for your dedication and hard work.
But deep down, you’d know the truth: you just lost track of time while scrolling through memes. Let’s hope your boss never finds out the real reason behind those ‘overtime’ hours.
Charming Chameleons
We’ve all been there—smiling and nodding along whenever the boss is around, working hard to show your dedication to the job. This image perfectly captures the dual personality required to navigate office politics.
While the boss might only see the ‘I love my job!’ face, every coworker knows the ‘I really don’t!’ truth hidden underneath. It’s an art to juggle these two personas, and some have mastered it better than others!
The Dynamic Duo
Teamwork makes the dream work, right? These guys sure know how to make the most of a job that “requires” two people. Instead of diving solo into the task, why not bring your buddy along for the ride?
Not only does it make the job feel like a breeze, but it also gives you someone to share the workload with, even if that workload includes taking well-deserved breaks. Here’s to convincing your boss that two heads are better than one!
Micro-Management At Its Finest
Everyone knows that one boss who can’t help but get involved in every little thing you do. Well, here’s a visual representation of precisely that. It’s as if they think you’re incapable of even the simplest tasks.
We get it, the attention to detail is appreciated, but sometimes it feels like we can’t even breathe without them monitoring us. This meme hilariously captures the essence of being micromanaged to an extreme degree.
Honesty is the Best Policy
We’ve all had those days where work feels like a chore, and taking some time off seems like the only solution. But not many would be this candid about their feelings!
Kudos to whoever did this in real life, it’s a bold move we secretly wish we could make!
Taking Instructions Literally
We all appreciate clear instructions from our bosses. But sometimes, following those instructions too literally can lead to some unexpected and hilarious outcomes.
This minion couldn’t resist the opportunity for a little fun when their boss told them to have a good day. The logic? Having a good day means going home early and relaxing. Points for creativity and humor!
Truth Hurts
We’ve all heard the line from our bosses about how much they value their employees. It’s supposed to be that motivating reassurance that keeps us going through the workday.
But let’s be real, when the paycheck arrives, it sometimes tells a very different story. It’s almost like our paychecks are giving us that Maury Povich moment—’The test determined that was a lie’.
Before You Go…
It’s the moment you’ve been waiting for—the workday is over, and you’re ready to head home. Just as you gather your things, your boss approaches with those dreaded words: ‘Before you go…’
We’ve all been there, the sinking feeling that your exit just got delayed. The only thing left to do is put on your best resigned smile and brace yourself for whatever’s coming next.
Boss Logic
Ever been in a meeting when your boss takes credit for your idea but does it in such a way that sounds almost… clever? It’s the classic ‘I know it was your idea, but it was my idea to use your idea’ scenario.
You can’t help but admire the sheer audacity of it. It’s moments like these that make office work both infuriating and oddly amusing. At least we know we have meme-worthy bosses to keep the workday interesting.
Work Hard, Play Hard
It’s hilarious how some bosses seem to think that dedication to work trumps everything, even serious injuries. This meme captures perfectly the expectations some managers have about unwavering commitment, no matter the circumstances.
While we all want to show our dedication to our work, let’s not break ourselves in the process. Sometimes, you just need to take a step back and recover—your boss’s unrealistic expectations can take a back seat for now.
Lake Delegation
There’s always that moment when you’re so frustrated with your boss, you’d rather they take a plunge into a lake. But of course, in true boss fashion, they’d find a way to make it your task instead.
This meme perfectly captures that endless cycle of delegation, making us laugh and cry at the same time. After all, if we didn’t delegate our frustrations, who would?
Clock Watching
We’ve all been there—staring at the clock, trying to leave work a bit early. But just when you thought you’d made a clean escape, your boss reminds you that you still have seven hours left on your shift.
It’s almost like they have a sixth sense for knowing when you’re about to cut out early. Next time, maybe try hiding behind your computer screen instead of making a break for it.
Laughing for Survival
Working under a boss who thinks they’re a comedian can be challenging, especially when the jokes miss the mark. But sometimes, survival at the office means perfecting your fake laugh to smooth over those awkward moments.
After all, who wouldn’t want to stay in the boss’s good books, especially when a little faux humor could lead to a well-deserved salary bump? Here’s to laughing our way to that much-needed raise!
Freedom Serenade
There’s nothing quite like the pure bliss of hearing that your boss is out of town for the next week. Those mountains may be high, but your spirits just soared even higher.
Between projects and with the boss nowhere in sight, it’s time to embrace your inner Julie Andrews and let loose. This workplace might as well be the hills, and they’re alive with the sound of freedom!
The Great Escape
There’s nothing quite like the feeling of freedom when you’re finally off the clock. But then your boss swoops in with one last favor request, and suddenly you’re in a high-stakes chase against your free time.
Whether it’s a simple email or a quick task, the urgency with which we flee makes us all look like we’re escaping the set of an action movie. Next time, maybe just hit ‘do not disturb.’
Blinded by the ‘After Hours’ Email
Nothing sends chills down an employee’s spine like a work email after the clock strikes five. You spend the whole day working and just when you are ready to relax, your boss swoops in with more to-dos.
This captures the mixture of dread and resignation we all feel. Who needs after-hours peace when your boss has urgent tasks lined up just for you?
Flexible Logic
When your boss tells you about ‘flexible scheduling,’ it might not mean what you think it does. Instead of being able to choose your own hours, you end up being flexible with the hours they assign to you.
It’s like you signed up for a yoga class and ended up in a boot camp. Guess it’s time to work on those stretching exercises – your calendar is about to get a workout!
Work Ethics 101
We’ve all had those days when showing up at work feels nearly impossible, but this meme takes it to a whole new level. Who wouldn’t want a boss so dedicated that even a flood can’t deter their expectations?
Honestly, it’s not that we don’t want to come in, it’s just that we’re busy swimming to the office. Let’s give it up for bosses who believe in the power of commitment—or maybe they just need a reality check!
Netflix Overload
It’s not uncommon to stay up way too late, binge-watching the latest season of our favorite show. But it’s never fun trying to explain to your boss why you look like a zombie the next day.
This poor guy’s face says it all. Mentally, he’s still on the couch, wrapped in a blanket, engrossed in the screen. Let’s hope his boss isn’t a mind reader!
Lead by Example?
Being told we’re all in the same boat while having to work a full shift on a Saturday is one thing. But when the boss then takes a two-hour lunch and leaves early? It leaves everyone questioning what boat we’ve actually signed up for.
This boss certainly has an interesting take on leadership. Maybe next time he should consider rowing with the team instead of catching the first lifeboat off the ship!
WFH Perks
Working from home definitely has its perks, and this guy is making the most of it. His boss might have told him it’s not a day off, but he clearly disagreed.
When you’re in full-on vacation mode, even work deadlines start to feel like a distant memory. Just make sure to keep that camera off during Zoom meetings!
Back to Reality
There is something universally dreadful about the first day back at work after a holiday. It’s a feeling of pure reluctance that can almost make you believe you’re still in vacation mode. Here’s a meme that perfectly encapsulates the dread we all experience as the holidays come to an abrupt end.
As much as we may not want to accept it, work is a necessary part of life. Sharing this meme with your co-workers is a light-hearted way to empathize with the post-holiday blues and perhaps, find some collective solace in knowing that you’re all in it together.
Boss Knows Best
When your boss keeps an eye on your social media, Monday mornings become all the more interesting. Your escapades from the weekend are no longer your little secret.
Imagine sitting across from your boss as they recall all your wild stories. It’s like having a live review of your weekend. Guess it’s time to reconsider those late-night posts!
Just When You Thought It Was Safe
There’s nothing quite like having a peaceful afternoon ambushed by an unexpected meeting announcement. It’s like walking on sunshine only to step into a puddle. Totally uncalled for, right?
This is the kind of workplace surprise none of us signed up for. Let’s hope he brings snacks, or better yet, brings a solution quick enough so we can enjoy what’s left of this beautiful day!
