A little humor goes a long way on the job—especially when the coffee wears off and the inbox won’t stop growing.
Luckily, some coworkers are built different.
Whether it’s a clever gift or a full-on prank that clearly took way too much planning, these employees brought some much-needed levity to the workplace.
It’s the kind of thing that breaks up the monotony and reminds everyone that the job doesn’t always have to be so serious.
This gallery rounds up moments where coworkers used their sense of humor to brighten someone else’s shift, even if it was just for a second.
So if you’ve ever been the office clown, or just appreciated having one nearby, these funny posts will probably feel pretty familiar.
