Being a good manager is a real skill. It requires patience, commitment, and most importantly, good people skills. Unfortunately, it’s not often that you see somebody in a supervisory role who genuinely has all of these traits. Unless you run your own business or become a CEO, it’s likely that you will spend your entire working life working beneath someone on the professional food chain. This isn’t always a comfortable experience. If you’re especially unlucky, nobody will know how to push your buttons like management.

It’s enough to break even the toughest employee, and it makes an outlet for supervisory frustrations necessary. It’s no surprise that memes are willing to take on this responsibility, not least because there is plenty of humor to be found in the tenuous employee/manager relationship. If you have ever been on the receiving end of questionable behavior from your higher-ups, this list is for you.
