Happy Monday to all those 9 to 5 warriors out there. It's official: we are now in the season of molding 99% of our professional woes into a problem to be dealt with in the new year. Are we going to be feeling a boatload of pain and regret when that time rolls around? Sure, but for now we have the countdown to Christmas to contend with. The clock-watching is starting to reach Olympic levels of competitive and every inbox is opened in the morning with an extra heavy sigh. There is only one remedy that can ease the next couple of weeks of impatience, and that's a hearty dose of work memes. They are here to make at least some of those boring minutes fly by a little faster so you can focus on your Christmas to-do list instead. Those Q4 goals are basically a write-off at this point, anyway.
