Work email tweets
So, I have this problem where I have to open my laptop every day. It’s terrible. I sit there and I get these emails from people who use words like “synergy” and “touch base.” I don’t want to touch your base. I don’t want to touch any bases. I just want to go home and stare at the wall. The worst part is the fake politeness. “Hope this finds you well.” No, you don’t. You hope I do the thing you want so you can look good to your boss.
These work email tweets get it. They understand that every “best regards” is actually a silent scream for help. We are all just pretending to be professional while wearing pajama pants and dissociating. When I see that mannequin looming over someone, that is exactly what a follow-up email feels like. It is a threat. It is a haunting. And I am tired of being haunted by Bill from accounting.
The modern office is a digital prison built of unread messages and calendar invites. We have collected the most relatable tweets from employees who are sick of circling back, pivoting, and taking things offline.
The tweet about Hotmail users having seniority is accurate. If you are still rocking an @msn.com address, you have seen things. You survived the dot com bubble. You deserve respect. And signing an email with “bet”? That is the level of chaotic energy I aspire to. It says, “I did the work, but I also might be high.”
If you are currently procrastinating on a reply, keep the distraction going. We recommend looking at corporate humor, work from home memes, and office space jokes for more professional apathy.
