Every employee knows what it's like to anticipate slogging for the day, whether you work for yourself or someone else. Plus, there's nothing worse than having to do it on a Monday, because this means you have the whole day ahead of you AND the entire week. Ugh, it's the worst.

While the stress may contribute to your slumping shoulders, we've scoured the internet and compiled this list of memes for you to take a look at as you ignore your work and scroll online. At least this way, you lighten your mood and perhaps your day, even if it is just for a little bit. No employee burns out in this department, at least.
