work

Every couple with children lands on some kind of system to share the labor. Sometimes people switch or days, or months, or they agree to have one person take on the housework while the other focuses on supporting the family financially. There is no perfect recipe for a happy family or marriage, but the important thing is that everyone feels valued and not like they're being taken for granted. There's not a single thing wrong with taking on the role of a stay-at-home mom, but it is wrong to be pushed into that position and then resented by your partner for 'having it easier,' as if managing a household is not a 24/7 occupation.

Like we said, find the balance that works for you, but make sure all parties understand why it's 'balanced.'

We're all taught to work smarter and not harder because time is valuable, and we've all got better things to do, right? Sometimes, working smarter means taking shortcuts that could look dishonest on the surface level, but hey, if people are none the wiser, does it matter? Like, does it reaaaaally matter? These people tweeted about the scams they pulled off at work so they could work smarter and not harder, and quite frankly, they're genius! So take some inspiration and see if you can hack your jobs, too, like these geniuses.

We've all had our fair share of "sick days," where we come up with some obscene reason to not go to work. Hey, we're not robots, we need some time to recharge. The only issue is if you keep telling our bosses that your car broke down when it actually does, they might not believe you anymore. It's never good to be the boy who cried wolf. However, sometimes there are just straight-up unexplainable and absurd things that actually cause us to miss work.

Can you think of yours? Here are a few ridiculous examples.

Every industry has their secrets. They have a certain image they look to put out into the world that may or may not align with how they actually do business. It's called 'growing your brand image.' Employees can get in a lot of trouble for revealing certain secrets and often have to sign NDA's if they're really that pressing. Don't even get us started on Disney. But not every place is as strict, and once their employees move on, they're free to spill the tea.

Most people develop close relationships with their coworkers in one way or another. When you spend eight hours a day with someone, you'll inevitably share personal issues with them, whether it's your relationship drama or family issues. Some people even have this sort of relationship with their boss if they're fortunate enough. But sometimes, your boss can share personal anecdotes with you that aren't wanted, warranted, or appropriate. Redditors shared some of 'The most TMI thing' their boss ever told them, and these horror stories are proof that real-life Michael Scotts exist way more than we'd want to believe.

If you love your job, you might be one of the lucky few who do. Whether it's because of sh*tty pay, a nightmare boss, or boring AF coworkers, some people genuinely dread going into work. Plastering a smile on your face all day is tough—and so is maintaining a resting bitch face—but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do to get through the day. We know that in an alternate universe, you're being paid to nap and eat cake all day, but welcome to reality, where your rent doesn't pay itself. So if your boss is a total asswipe, management sucks, and your coworkers drive you insane, these memes are for you.

Work can be fun and challenging at the same time. Some days are obviously better than others, and managers, coworkers, and clients have a lot to do with how your day goes. A Redditor started a thread asking Reddit women about the dumbest questions they've ever been asked at work, and boy, did they fire back with entertaining stories. As dumb as these questions are, they sure make for an entertaining workday. Scroll down to check 'em out. 

Sometimes work gets way too routine, and we need to spice things up a little bit. We all send boring, predictable emails on a daily basis... if only there was a way to craft emails that could make our routine a tad more exciting. Lucky for us, a Redditor started a thread about how he could assert his dominance over his coworkers through adding new, unique content to his email signature, and fellow Redditors had some hilarious ideas. Looking to assert your dominance over your own coworkers? Check out what the Redditors had to offer below. 

Unless you're part of the small but elite club of people in the world who actually loves their job, you'll find going to work a total bummer. And that's OK because you're not alone. In fact, if you asked everyone in the world, 99.999% of them would probably tell you that if they could get paid to stay in bed and drink mimosas all day, they would. Shocking, right? So whether you hate your boss, your coworkers, your commute, or your actual job itself, these memes are for you. And just so we're clear: here at Cheezcake, we love our jobs because we get to create awesome content like this, just for you.

Being an adult has pros and cons. On the one hand, you're more independent and powerful than ever, but on the other hand, with great power comes great responsibility. And that responsibility isn't a price we're always willing to pay. The thing about adulting is that even though you're not down to accomplish all of your responsibilities, you still gotta. The people of Twitter have to undergo the neverending cycle of adulting on a weekly basis, and we're sure you could relate. Scroll down for this week's best adulting tweets. 

Picture the scene: you're sitting in traffic, trying not to stab yourself in the eye as you attempt to do your mascara with one hand. You're late for work, your boss is a total biatch, you hate your coworkers, and you're hungover AF. So basically, it's a typical Wednesday. If that's you, then these memes will speak to your poor, tortured soul. If you love your job, you are truly blessed, and you can also see yourself out the door, thank you.

Going to work is a drag. I mean, I don't know who invented the idea that you have to work for your money, but I hope they are burning in hell. OK, just kidding. I love my job — I get to create awesome meme lists all day, but not everyone is as lucky as me. So in your honor, here is a bunch of relatable work memes for when you're having the Monday blues every goddamn day of the week, and when your coworkers are driving you batshit crazy.

Being an adult is cool and all, but it's definitely not all it was cracked up to be when we were kids. Like Twenty One Pilots once beautifully sang, "Wish we could turn back time to the good old days when our momma sang us to sleep but now we're stressed out." That song just hit differently. In fact, there are so many aspects about adulting that totally suck. Twitter isn't shy about complaining/crying/ranting/all of the above, and when it comes to having to adult, they have a whole lot to say about it. 

It is hard to understand what would drive people to start going at it right in the middle of their workspace. But I suppose that is exactly why it is so enticing. There's always a thrill in knowing you may be caught in a very inappropriate location, and possibly even have to face the consequences. Is there a fetish for this? Or do we all just like to feel a little bad sometimes?

On Reddit people are sharing their stories of what happened when they got caught having sex at work. You might find the responses quite titillating.

Anyone who has worked in an office is familiar with the situation of being forced to deal with a crazy coworker. If you can't think of anyone in your office... I have some unfortunate news for you.

No, but seriously, there's always going to be someone that you don't mesh with but you are forced to deal with them anyway. That's just life in general. However, this situation, shared by Reddit user u/SuccessfulPeace292, seemed a little more obscure than usual. She was literally reported to HR by her 'Karen' coworker for eating 'sexy potatoes.' If that prompt doesn't make you insist on getting more details, I don't know what will.

Who knew being an adult would be this challenging?! When I was a kid, I thought I would automatically get my dream job, and of course, my dream salary. I thought it meant being completely independent and jetting off whenever TF I want to exotic locations. Alas, adulting isn't all it's cracked up to be. The people of Twitter take to the platform to communally complain about the struggles of adulting on a weekly basis, and it's abundantly clear that the struggle is REAL, y'all! Check out this week's most relatable adulting tweets.
