The only thing standing between you and the door to your boss's office is a thin, glass door. You could do it, you know–waltz in there and tell 'em how you feel about being overworked and underpaid–but by the time any hardworking employee is finished with a 40-hour workweek, who has the energy? We're the complacent working generation that endures strangely comfortable working conditions in order to find our peace elsewhere. We put our work phone on silent when we clock out and we don't check emails from our bed at night… Workforces like this clock in, get it done, then clock out.

So while your CEO profits on the fruits of your labor, the blasé employee dgafs their way into the online job search forums, crop-dusting their resume to 15 identical companies to the one they're currently employed with–except, with higher salaries, less work, and a hybrid schedule. Work is pretty simple when you stop caring about it! And the detachment is what saves a lot of people.

Because at the end of the day, we're all just here for a paycheck. That's right, Stacy from HR! Nobody is here for the breakroom snacks, the company culture, or the office gossip. We're here to get in, get out, and get paid. So while you're moseying around the office trying to seem busy on a Monday, scroll through some relatable dark humor memes that laugh in the face of every cubicle.
