10 Gifs That Sum Up An Awful Week At Work

Ever had a dreadful week at work where everything just seems to go wrong!? You're not the only one. Check out my week from hell, in the medium of GIFs.

This week, things have been irritating me a little bit more than usual...

A series of unfortunate events have occurred... events that usually only happen once in a blue moon and rarely in the same few days.

It's just been one of those weeks.

So I thought I'd write a blog about it.

Behold, my week from hell, in the medium of gifs.

1. It all started when I returned from annual leave...

...and had forgotten my password (I recall thinking, "do I actually work here?").

3 attempts to log in to my PC and still no luck. That's fine, I'll set up a new password.

Cue error message: "This password cannot be reused."

2. Everyone in the world seems to have smelly food.

Except me...and obviously I skipped breakfast, so I'm mega hungry.

3. And then I notice...

...that my desk buddy has started to use my desk too...

Either that, or the office fairies have come in during the night and had a party with all my papers.

4. So I wander to the kitchen...

...and realise people have put their mugs in the sink, even though there's an empty dishwasher...

Just make the brew, around the mess and dirt.

5. And upon returning to my desk, pretty stressed out...

...I knock my entire coffee all over the desk.

6. But I clean up the mess and get on with it...

...but guess what? My favourite pen runs out.

7. So I turn to the digital copy...

However I may as well have celebrated another birthday by the time my computer actually even loads.

8. And I really don’t want to call IT...

...because I know the answer is going to be…

9. Then suddenly...

...there's the realisation that there hasn’t been any birthday cake for a while (still hungry)...

Source

10. But hey, it’s Friday...

...and this will be me at 5PM...

Summary

Whew! I'm glad I got that off my chest.

Luckily it's the end of the week... so - starting afresh on Monday!
