The most relatable work bestie memes
So, in honor of the real MVP of your 9-to-5 survival, we’ve rounded up the most painfully relatable work bestie meme collection. Because if they leave? We riot. Or, you know, immediately update our LinkedIn.
Every work bestie meme you’ve ever needed
When “deliverables” really means “vibes”
Sure, we technically worked… if you count brainstorming, laughing at memes, and taking an essential coffee break (or two) as “productivity”.
Productivity? Never heard of her
I could tackle my endless to-do list… but wouldn’t it be way more fun to dramatically sigh at my work bestie’s desk and lament that we’re both too overwhelmed to function? Better yet, share a few giggles over these work bestie memes?
Work bestie = VIP access to the tea
Guarding office gossip like it’s top-secret intel — until your work bestie walks in, and suddenly, it’s a full debrief with receipts. Security clearance? Bestie level only.
Abandonment? In this economy?
First, shock. Then, denial. Then, immediately updating my resume because there’s no way I’m surviving this place without them.
When mission “avoid work” fails
The plan was foolproof: open some spreadsheets, type aggressively, and occasionally sigh. But now we actually have tasks? This was not in the script.
Secrets? What secrets?
Me to my boss: “Of course, I won’t say anything.”
Me, exactly 0.2 seconds later in the break room to the bestie: “You will NOT believe what I just heard.”
Who Wants to Be a Millionaire — workplace edition
The Slack roulette of doom: Will it be your work bestie’s unfinished thought, a cryptic HR email, or the dreaded ‘Can we chat real quick?’ Either way, the only correct response is to immediately panic.
Keeping it together… barely
They just dropped the most unhinged take in the group chat, and now you’re fighting for your life trying to keep a straight face. HR is watching and the bullpen is listening. Stay strong.
A betrayal worse than any spreadsheet error
Oh, so now we’re just offering our elite workplace survival skills to just anybody? Cool, cool. Guess I’ll just be over here, questioning everything.
Gaslight, gatekeep, ignore the deadline
Smiling through the chaos like we weren’t just deep in a three-hour Slack convo about weekend plans instead of, you know, working.
Work bestie = personal hype squad
HR may have put you on a PIP, but in this economy? I refuse to believe it. In my eyes, you’re the backbone of this company, the corporate equivalent of a Renaissance genius, and frankly, they should be giving you a raise.
Abandonment issues, but make it corporate
One minute, you’re thriving. The next, you realize your work bestie is out, and suddenly, the office feels like a lawless wasteland. No gossip, no side-eye exchanges — just you, suffering. Alone.
The unspoken work bestie telepathy
No words needed. Just one look across the room, and your work bestie knows you’ve just uncovered some elite-level office tea.
The Slack message? Already typing.
Forced fun vs. actual fun
Ah yes, another mandatory team bonding event where we pretend to be extroverts. Meanwhile, all we really need is 15 uninterrupted minutes in the breakroom to debrief the office drama with our work bestie. Priorities, people.
Mutual PTO hype or bust
No request is too ambitious when your work bestie is your personal PR team. You want three weeks off with zero notice? Sounds reasonable.
Now, let’s get mine approved too so we can sip margaritas in Cabo.
Mastering the art of strategic “busyness”
Oops! Looks like we both just happened to be ‘booked’ at the exact same time. What are the chances? Guess we’ll just have to circle back...never.
Work can wait — the tea is urgent
Forget deadlines — your work bestie just dropped a novel in Slack, and now your full attention is required for this extremely important, absolutely not work-related discussion.
Great non-tech remote jobs for 2025
But that doesn’t mean remote work is disappearing. Hybrid models are dominant, and fully remote jobs remain available, especially in startups, global companies, and industries that have embraced remote work as a long-term strategy. Roles in customer success, marketing, education, operations, and project management still offer remote possibilities—no coding required.
While the job market is more competitive, companies that continue to hire remotely do so strategically, prioritizing autonomous, self-motivated professionals who thrive in digital environments. If you’re looking for a remote job in 2025, flexibility is key. Consider hybrid positions, international employers, or companies that have committed to remote-first work policies.
Here are some great non-tech remote jobs to explore in 2025, so you can still skip the daily commute.
Healthcare
1. Online Counselor: $68, 084 (National Average for a Therapist)
Among millennials (born between 1981 and 1996), depression is the fastest-growing health condition. Millennials have been called the therapy generation, attending therapy in record numbers and convincing loved ones to go too. And, with the increased need for therapy, remote, online options have made their way to the forefront of mental health care. Online Counselors are now able to help clients remotely through text, calls, and video chat!
Why this works remotely: As an online counselor you are doing what you normally do with a patient, just with a screen that separates you. Also, some patients who are reluctant to attend therapy in-person may feel more comfortable opening up in a virtual setting.
2. Remote Nurse/PA: $80,321 (National Average for a Remote Nurse)
You may perform a variety of duties including triage (online or over the phone), patient education, care management, patient outreach, and central support to practice operations.
Why this works remotely: It may sound shocking that a healthcare practitioner could work remotely, but now more than ever people are eager to get medical advice before making a trip to the ER. They also need advice when trying to gauge if they need to seek medical attention or when they feel too sick to make a trip to the office but know they're ill.

Operations
3. Executive Assistant: $64,456 (National average for Remote Executive Assistant)
Are you good at wearing multiple hats and supporting C-Level staff? Then being an EA may be a great option for you. In this role, you would be responsible for scheduling, travel, project management, and general support tasks.
Why this works remotely: While some executives like to have their EA right by their sides, executives who work remotely or who don't want to feel micromanaged prefer to have their support a phone call or email away.
Explore remote executive assistant jobs.
4. Project Manager: $102,682 (National average for Remote Project Manager)
A great project manager can develop a strategic plan and execute all of its deliverables independently or collaboratively. The best project managers can do all of that in their pajamas.
Jokes aside, while there are plenty of technical project management positions, there are also non-technical projects that need someone skilled in strategy and cross-team collaboration who can take great ideas across the finish line.
Why this works remotely: Communication is essential in this role, but that doesn't mean that you need to be in an office. Internal communication tools like Slack, Trello, Asana, and Basecamp can help you stay organized with your team and stay on task.
Explore remote project management jobs.
5. Virtual Assistant: $50,749 (National average for Remote Virtual Assistant)
A great virtual assistant is a master of organization, time management, and problem-solving. Whether handling emails, scheduling meetings, or managing databases, they keep everything running smoothly behind the scenes. The best virtual assistants do all of this with efficiency—and without ever setting foot in an office.
Virtual assistants are essential for entrepreneurs, executives, and small business owners who need administrative support but don’t require (or want) in-person help. Strong communication skills, attention to detail, and adaptability make for a top-tier VA.
Why this works remotely: This role is inherently digital. With tools like Google Workspace, Zoom, Notion, and project management software, virtual assistants can manage tasks, coordinate with teams, and keep operations running efficiently—no office desk is required.

Sales and marketing
6. Business Development Manager: $85,602 (National average for Remote Business Development Manager)
Bringing in new business will make you the shining star of any company that you work for, which is a big part of the reason why so many companies hire Business Development Managers and other account managers remotely. This role requires targeting new sales and developing a profitable sales pipeline and often a good bit of travel to meet new clients.
Why this works remotely: Business Development Representatives typically reach out to prospects via phone and email, and with clients located all over the country (and the world), there's less incentive for companies to restrict their BDRs to an office.
Explore remote business development jobs.
7. Content Marketing Manager: $77,858 (National Average for Remote Content Marketing Manager)
A skilled Content Manager oversees and manages all of a company’s content production. They’re in charge of creating, editing, and publishing original content, and ensuring it adheres to the company's voice and brand guidelines.
Why this works remotely: For the most part a content manager works independently, making this an excellent remote job. Similar to previous positions listed here, communication is important but the vast number of communication tools make this so much easier to execute on your deliverables remotely.

8. Social Media Manager: $64,845 (National average for Remote Social Media Manager)
A great social media manager does more than just post funny memes (though that helps). They build and execute strategies that grow brands, engage audiences, and drive business results. From managing content calendars to analyzing performance metrics, they’re the voice behind a company’s online presence.
Social media never sleeps—and neither does the need for skilled professionals who can navigate trends, algorithms, and audience behaviors. Whether working for a startup, an agency, or as a freelancer, social media managers thrive when they combine creativity with data-driven decision-making.
Why this works remotely: Social media is inherently digital. With scheduling tools like Buffer, Hootsuite, and Sprout Social, plus collaboration platforms like Slack and Trello, social media managers can plan, post, and analyze content from anywhere with Wi-Fi.

Legal
9. Counsel: $60,327 (National average for Legal Counsel)
Companies seeking in-house counsel are looking for legal aid in commercial contracts, advice, negotiations, and more. While you would likely need a JD in the state that your company's headquarters is in, it does not mean that you have to work in the office, just in the same state.
Why this works remotely: Because most legal positions are behind the scenes, there is less of a need for them to be in the office daily.
Explore remote legal professional jobs.
Education
10. Career Coach: $84,000 (National average for Remote Career Coach)
A great career coach helps people navigate job searches, career transitions, and professional growth. Whether improving résumés, refining interview skills, or providing leadership coaching, they offer guidance tailored to each client’s needs. The best career coaches don’t just give advice—they empower people to take control of their careers.
Jokes aside, job seekers today face a competitive and evolving landscape. Career coaches provide clarity, accountability, and industry insights that help clients stand out. Many specialize in areas like executive coaching, career pivots, or personal branding.
Why this works remotely: Coaching sessions are often one-on-one and discussion-based, making video calls via Zoom or Microsoft Teams the perfect medium. Digital collaboration tools like Miro, Notion, and Google Docs also help coaches provide structured guidance, no office required.

11. Instructional Designer: $79,711 (National Average for Instructional Designer)
The transition to a skills-based economy, where companies are prioritizing skills over degrees and experience, has resulted in a surge in demand for corporate learning. Organizations are investing in upskilling and reskilling as never before. Instructional designers are key in this professional development and upskilling process. They are tasked with designing courses or curriculums and creating training materials, such as teaching manuals, student guides, assessments, and learning metrics.
Why this works remotely: Most instructional design work is done independently. Like previous positions listed here, communication is important, and the vast number of communication tools on the market make it easier to execute on your deliverables remotely.
Explore remote instructional designer jobs.
If you are wondering if your role can be done remotely, first take a look at your day-to-day tasks. How often are you needed for face-to-face interactions? Is the majority of your work done digitally? Which technologies would you need to do your job remotely? Your answers to these questions will help you determine if you need to work in an office or if you can venture out and seek remote roles in the same field.
Another thing to consider is that working at a tech company doesn't always entail being directly involved in technical roles. Many non-tech positions are vital to the success of these companies, offering remote opportunities for individuals with diverse skill sets. Roles such as Customer Success Managers, Customer Service Representatives, Sales Associates, Marketing Specialists, and Human Resources professionals are in high demand and offer the flexibility of remote work. As remote work stabilizes amid shifting workplace policies, these positions present promising opportunities for individuals seeking rewarding careers in the tech industry without the need for technical expertise.
