Project Managers are like debt collectors who double the demands every hour that passes post deadline. But let’s be honest, operations at the office wouldn’t flow without them. What matters is that at the end of the day, by hook or by crook, they get the job done.
Mail? I-message? Slack? You could ponder for hours but somehow, everything feels inappropriate when you need to reach out to higher management. The absurdity of office rules somehow never gets old.
All project managers know this one tech guy who either switches tabs anxiously or just plain hides under his desk as you come looking for him. When project managers cannot manage such people anymore, the management needs to step up and get more creative.
The boss who personally messages you half a minute past check-in time, the CTO who installs a spyware in your PC to track your work hours and the project manager who schedules a meeting every 2 hours…we all know the type. Here’s some high-quality humour for the ones who have survived micromanaging at its worst.
Does your boss ever expect too much from you? Maybe a turnover of 3 designs per hour or five 1000 word blogs a day? This cartoon is for your team members who are streaming kettles whistling with pressure!
Do you ever thread lightly from your desk to the door during log out time half expecting a jump scare from your manager the entire time? If yes then this cartoon is for you.
Have you ever noticed that the more desperate someone is for a promotion, the farther in line they’re kept during promotions and appraisals? Here’s for all the assistants to the regional manager who are waiting for their respective assistant regional manager promotions.
In the context of yoga and Indian spiritual traditions, moksha refers to the ultimate state of liberation or freedom. It is considered the highest goal of human life. Hence, managements must hold off from introducing their employees to yoga.
After the onset of the notice period, employees seldom continue to perform their duties diligently until their last day. This is become people either don’t know what a notice period is or they believe that announcing a resignation will lead to immediate dismissal or being escorted out. This cartoon describes notice period misunderstandings perfectly.
Notice Period stereotypes can vary significantly depending on the organizational culture, industry norms, and individual circumstances. Professional and well-managed notice periods can help avoid most of these negative perceptions. But they never stop being absurd and funny.
The things organizations do to fire up their reputations and credibility. But the truth can only be masked for so long…
All people in marketing know that the same lines do not work on everyone. Especially when they’re ironically repulsive to a certain demographic. This is a tragic comic about a failed marketing effort.
“The Miracle Widget 3000 will change your life! It slices, it dices, it makes julienne fries, it does your taxes, walks your dog, and even sings you lullabies!” We don’t know which is worse, marketeers who lie, or people who believe it. Either way, liars always pay.
“Got your back?” Sorry, we meant “Ha! Got you!” You’re better off if your co-workers are the pranking type, because the alternative is the hardcore backbiting type, which is much worse. Catch our comics with the best of office humour like this one.
While some of us wake up from nightmares about our boss and face them in real life, the rest have bosses who are full blown nightmares in real life. So, love your boss and be grateful.
Sleep hits best when its illegal, inappropriate and poorly timed. When offices install bunk
beds and ask their employees to make the best of them, they must also remember to have
an alarm on each bed. Otherwise, their quest of productivity turns to web comics instead.
It is an open secret that the fastest way to get an appraisal or promotion is to make the boss
happy. And the easiest way to do so is to laugh at his jokes, funny or not.
You think your work is great, until it’s shredded to bits by your boss. And just when you think
things cannot get worse, the boss gives you a whole new brief and asks you to rework on it
from scratch. Of all corporate comics, this cape one is our favourite.
