The more I work in corporate the more I realize the people who do the least complaining are usually doing unnecessary work that doesn't need to be done in the first place and are too scared or stupid to question it

Welcome to General Memes
Memes for the masses, chuckles for the chosen.
Rule 1: Be Civil, Not Cruel
We’re here for laughs, not fights.
- No harassment, dogpiling, or brigading
- No bigotry (transphobia, racism, sexism, etc.)
- Keep it light — argue in the comments, not with insults
Rule 2: No Forbidden Formats
Not every image deserves immortality on the memmlefield. That means:
- No spam or scams
- No porn or sexually explicit content
- No illegal content (seriously, don’t ruin the fun)
- NSFW memes must be properly tagged
If you see a post that breaks the rules, report it so the mods can take care of it.
Otherwise consider this your call to duty. Get posting or laughing. Up to you

many such cases
This is selective perception. Most of us slackers know that we'll have an easier time getting by without working by not making a fuss.
Sometimes you need complainers for the company to actually do things that need to be done.
Complaining is how we got new laptops we genuinely needed for our work tasks recently. Complaining ftw.
"I can't get any work done because the building is on fire and there's bees.
"Maybe if you stopped complaining..."
When I worked at a TV station as an engineer (over a decade ago), I regularly had to dealmwith fucking bees living in the sattelite LNBs.
This usually involved spraying an entire can of bee killet spray at the LNB then running inside for the rest of the week.
Why aren't the bees allowed to live in the satellite?
They interfere with the signal to the point of killing the signal.
Okay that's fair.
Just to be a bit more specific, we had these Cband LNBs on the dishes, and the bees would crawl up inside and build nests. The flat end is open.

Very cool, thank for sharing.
Could someone have built a decoy LNB for the bees?
You know, that may have been a useful idea for the old ones we had replaced. Just mount them around the sat yard on poles.
And you get free bees.
This is slander, I very quietly do the least amount of work.
Doing a lot of work and getting a lot of/important things done are not the same
They are pulling a Costanza. If you look annoyed all the time, people will think you’re busy.
This works. I’ve done it and seen people do it and it’s really effective if it’s not a constant state.
We're all closer to being dirt poor than being the ultra wealthy. Don't attack your fellow workers (even if they're not contributing much), attack the system keeping everyone down
Doing the least work possible for the corporate sound pretty based to me
I'm sensing a lot of complainers in the comments
