'Oh good, you're still here': The best relatable work memes this week

It might not be this way forever, though, with some predicting that an economically unstable 2026 is going to have a lot of people out of a job (if artificial intelligence didn't wipe out whatever role they had already).

It is important to maximize these good memories.
