How to Make a Bad Situation Bearable

If our Google search results are any indication, micromanagement is the number one employment problem today. You might think that it’s stagnant wages, but most workers have given up on getting a raise and just want to make the best of the bad situation that they are in. Now if you are reading this article in hopes of finding a way to work with management, you have come to the wrong place. There are plenty of sites that will offer constructive advice for handling employment issues, but this is not one of them. Sometimes you just want to make you boss wallow in your pain. So here’s the secret to making your boss suffer as much as you do: passive aggressiveness. The trick to this technique is that you are not openly insubordinate… But somehow things at work go wrong and your supervisor is left feeling like the idiot you silently call him or her as they walks by.

One way to show disdain for your job is to surround yourself with “humorous” products with funny sayings about work. After all, it’s just a joke; you don’t really hate your job… or the company… or your coworkers… or your boss…  The following mugs feature witty quotations about being a disgruntled employee. Don’t worry, we’ll cover demotivational posters another time.
