When you work in an office and have to see and talk to the same boring people and do the same monotonous job every day, life can get fairly boring. If only The Office were real, and we could all have a boss like Michael Scott, who is fumbling but funny. But don’t worry, we’ve gathered some of the most funny office photographs we could find that will have you giggling for hours. You may irritate your coworkers, but at the very least you will be thoroughly entertained!
30+ Amusing Office Photos Will Help You Beat Cubicle Boredom
On Halloween, the Paleontology Department
No matter how much time passes, these T-rex outfits will always be amusing, because when it’s Halloween and you work in the paleontology department at a university, you don’t play about with your anatomically precise dinosaur costumes. The only problem is that we doubt they got much work done that day, given that T-rexes have tiny small arms that are virtually worthless. But, hey, we can’t all be productive all of the time, can we?

Just One of Those Days
We’ve all had days at work when there’s nothing to do. So you go to your employer and say, “Hey boss, is it okay if I just go home early today because there isn’t much going on?” “No, Gabe, you need to stay right there at your desk until 5 o’clock and no earlier,” your employer invariably responds. You’ve got to do something to pass the time! Why not spend it making random online strangers laugh?
Just One Of Those Days
What a lovely piece of art
Don’t cry over spilt wine, as the saying goes. Okay, that’s not exactly what they say, but after an employee accidently spilled wine on the floor, this guy decided to make the best of it by transforming it into a terrified raccoon-cat hybrid-thing. Is that a raccat? Or how about a catcoon? In any case, it’s now a stunning work of art. And if his employees don’t think it’s a wonderful work of art, too bad, since it’s not going anywhere.

He’s Got a Point…
If you despise the Comic Sans font, know that its creator does as well. His name is Vincent Connare, and he regrets creating a monster that has become an international laughingstock. But, truly, what can you do with Comic Sans? It appears to be inappropriate at a Fortune 500 company (or any reputable company). How about a kids’ birthday party? To be honest, even children might think it’s immature…
He’s Got A Point…
Paul’s Productivity
Paul has an incredible grasp on the size of planetary bodies in our solar system for someone who is so lethargic. Should we propose a job shift for him? He must have spent several days wrapping rubber bands around each other to produce a rubber band ball the size of a volleyball. Maybe he should study engineering. Whatever it is, it is evident that he has to leave his current position!

A Scoop for Spoons
It’s as if whoever set this up experienced a pandemic or something! However, it is kind of unpleasant when individuals dig through communal draws of cutlery with their filthy fingers. In fact, that’s quite revolting. After all, who wants other people’s filth on their spoons? After all, some folks don’t even wash their hands! So, if you ask us, this system is actually quite rational. Thank you for the spoon scoop idea.
A Scoop For Spoons
A Bathroom Dedicated to Ben
You get the entire men’s bathroom to yourself when you’re the only male in the workplace, which is a pretty good deal. No more waiting around for what seems like an eternity for other people when you’re desperate since you just drank an entire pot of coffee by yourself. Ben, the world (or, in this case, this one bathroom in your office) is your oyster. You are free to do whatever you desire. Live out your fantasies to the utmost.
A Bathroom Dedicated to Ben
Debbie, the Lunch Thief at Work
Debbie, please do not be THAT person. Nobody likes the lunch thief in the office. Simply pack your own lunch; it’s not that difficult. Everyone in the company is aware of your salary and understands that you can afford not to steal other people’s lunches. Unless you prefer being chastised passive-aggressively by your coworkers. In that case, go ahead and do it. After all, it’s your life. We will not pass judgment. We will, just kidding, because no one likes a lunch thief!

Working From Home
When you ask your boss if you can start working from home and he says no, you have two choices: accept the loss and return to your desk grumbling, or bring your home to the office in protest. Do we advise you to do the latter? No, unless you want to be fired, but it will surely delight everyone else in your office!
Working From Home
Chanthropology
What is the definition of chanthropology? Does it entail learning random stuff about Jackie Chan himself? In that case, did you realize Mr. Chan is actually Fang Shilong? Or that he speaks an absurdly large number of languages? He does, in fact, speak English, Mandarin, Cantonese, ASL, German, Korean, Japanese, Spanish, and Thai. Is he constantly confused by all of these languages? We have a lot of questions for him…

The Classic Cup Prank
This is an oldie, but it’s a goodie. The idea is simple: go to the shop and buy a bunch of plastic cups, fill them all with water, and then pile them all over your coworker’s desk so he can’t move anything without spilling. Is it likely to irritate your coworker? Yes. Is it difficult to set up? Yes. Will it, however, make you grin for a brief moment? Without a doubt, sure.
The Classic Cup Prank
Quitting in Style
If you’re going to resign from your work, why not do it in style? These jokes are especially entertaining if you dislike your job since your employer will get a confused kick out of them, but you’ll have the last laugh. When a good employee goes, the boss is virtually never happy, but the company will survive, and they will be able to squeeze more efficiency out of another poor, naive, underpaid employee. RIP.
Quitting In Style
Arachnophobes Beware
This prank is ideal (and really cruel) for the arachnophobe at your office. Just make sure you do it before anyone else in the office sees it, so no one knows if there’s a flaw lurking underneath. It’s much better if you put a fake plastic spider beneath it, but be prepared for the inevitable screaming.
Arachnophobes Beware
A Holiday Miracle
Perfect for fans of The Office and that one coworker who always jokes about what you’re getting them for Christmas. You could respond with “my presence,” but why would you when you could wrap up their entire desk setting and observe their amusing reaction when they walk into work in the morning?
A Holiday Miracle
So Much Disappointment
Step 1: Place an order for a box of Krispy Kreme donuts. Step 2: Consume all of the aforementioned donuts; Step 3: Fill the donut box with dismal rabbit food; Step 4: Watch in horror as your coworker opens the box to see the world’s biggest letdown. If it’s their birthday, it’s even better (and meaner)! (Just be prepared for them to despise you for the rest of their lives.)
So Much Disappointment
Do not attempt this at home
This prank is not for the faint of heart. In fact, you’ll need a whole crew of skilled pranksters to pull it off. It is also extremely dangerous, with the potential for both injury and damage to company property. As a result, we cannot advise you to attempt it. But if you insist, please don’t attempt it on your boss unless you want to be fired.
Do not attempt this at home
Glitter Bomb
Anyone who has ever cleaned up even the smallest quantity of glitter knows how difficult it is. It gets into your hair, clothes, and even your eyes. And no matter how many times you try to vacuum it up, it will never go away! Only attempt this prank if you are fully prepared for this employee to despise you.
Glitter Bomb
Is This Person Okay…?
This is a cruel joke since a.) it will make your employees worried about this “person’s” health, and b.) no one will be able to use the one available stall. If you decide to perform this prank, make sure your office has more than one bathroom. If your office just has one bathroom, you can level up and make everyone hate you even more!
Is This Person Okay…
Keyboard Shortcuts
Most people are probably wise enough not to lend their phone to a coworker. But, if they aren’t smart enough to realize this, it’s the perfect moment to prank them by changing their keyboard shortcuts. And, as the image above indicates, unless you want to be fired, you should definitely stick to PG-rated modifications.
Keyboard Shortcuts
A Wake-Up Call
Every Monday morning, your coworkers grumble about how exhausted they are, therefore you should take it upon yourself to wake them up before your 9 a.m. meeting. Simply take an air horn and tape it to where the door handle meets the wall, as seen in the photo. It’s the same as waking up in the morning by taking a cold shower. They will undoubtedly enjoy it. Believe us.
A Wake Up Call
You Can’t Escape the Biebs
We’re not sure if the guy in the photo is happy or angry that Justin Bieber’s face appears on everything he owns. In any case, he won’t be able to work without thinking about the Biebs all day. Extreme mode: Play “Baby” again and over on the workplace speakers, but very quietly. Increase the volume every time it plays.
You Can’t Escape The Biebs
He’s Always Watching
Do your coworkers ever say that your supervisor is constantly breathing down their necks and scrutinizing everything they do? No? Oh well, with this hoax, they will now! Simply print up 2,000 photos of your boss and tape them to every corner of your coworker’s workspace. Extra points for using a bizarre psychedelic color scheme!
He’s Always Watching
When You Lose a Bet, Play This Joke
If you ever lose a bet to a coworker, you can earn gold in the petty Olympics by paying everything in pennies! They’ll be irritated that they have to lug all of that home, and they’ll simply have to trust that you gave them the correct quantity, because, let’s face it, nobody has time to count all of that.
When You Lose a Bet, Play This Joke
I’d Rather Not Find the Toenail
Would you eat this if it was delivered into your office? To be honest, we probably would. First and foremost, the chances of you obtaining a toenail in your slice of cake are extremely low, and secondly, there is almost certainly no toenail in the cake to begin with. Is there one? In any case, it’s a simple prank that will definitely frighten folks.
I’d Rather Not Find The Toenail
Relive Your Middle School Days
When in doubt, go back to the entertaining middle school pranks you used to play with your pals. When the teacher would leave the classroom for a few moments, we would all play this game. And what does it matter if you’re 35 and work at a legal firm? You’re never too old to fire rubber bands at people. That is a proven fact.
Relive Your Middle School Days
Voice Activated Appliances
Nothing makes someone feel stupider than ranting at an inanimate item for no apparent reason. And it’s the simplest prank ever – all you have to do is print off a small label and put it on a commonplace gadget. It’s much better if you write a command down, the more foolish the better. It’s both amusing and embarrassing!
Voice Activated Appliances
Bring the Bathroom to Your Coworker
This coworker is well known as the one who goes to the bathroom for 30 minutes every day to get away from everyone else. Steve, we know what you’re up to in there. You can’t run away. What better way to make fun of him than to replace his chair with a toilet? It’s heavy and will most likely be a hassle to complete, but it’s surely a joke worthy of praise!
Bring The Bathroom To Your Coworker
Scanner Scare
This prank is ideal for Halloween or whenever you want to give a coworker a true scare. Simply Xerox the side of your face (the creepier, the better) and stick it in a window. Hard mode: laminate your Xeroxed face, place it in a jar with colored liquid, and place it on a coworker’s desk.

Office Jokes Do Not Always Remain IN the Office
You thought you’d finally escaped the office hijinks because the workday had come to an end. You were the last one to leave the workplace, but as you walk outside, you notice that your coworkers took advantage of the heavy workload that had you working overtime. At least this one doesn’t need to be cleaned!
Office Jokes Do Not Always Remain IN the Office
Office Full o’ Balloons
Aside from the fact that it will take a long time to blow up all of these balloons, this prank is ideal for your boss’s birthday! They’ll adore it, we promise. And, well, it’s better than a glittery room. Please don’t try to blow up all of these by yourself. Get some pals or a balloon inflator to help you with this.
Office Full O’ Balloons
Budget Standing Desk
When a coworker complains about not having a standing desk and the manager says it’s “not in the budget,” you give them the next best thing: a hole in the ground. Your boss will not mind. Probably. But, in the end, you’ve saved a few hundred dollars by not purchasing an actual standing desk, and that’s all that matters!
Budget Standing Desk
Keep Your Facebook Page Closed
Everyone occasionally leaves their personal Facebook page open at work, and this prank will educate them not to. When your coworker gets up to go the restroom, go to their settings, click on “privacy,” and then select “only me.” They’ll be perplexed that three days have passed and no one has commented on any of their posts!
Keep Your Facebook Page Closed
No Touching
If you don’t have the time or energy to decorate your boss’s office with balloons or pull a toilet to a coworker’s desk to replace their chair, this prank is for you! There’s always someone in every office that doesn’t like it when people touch their belongings, so this is a great way to play a practical joke on them with little effort!
No Touching
Completely Useless Mouse
This prank is ideal because it is subtle while being irritating enough to really grind your coworker’s gears. Simply place a small Post-It note on the underside of their mouse over the optical sensor, and you’ve got yourself a mouse that doesn’t operate! It’s much better if you write a nasty comment on the Post-It to be found later.
Completely Useless Mouse
Don’t Cry Over Spilled Milk
For this prank, squirt some Elmer’s glue onto a pan and place it in the freezer. Once the glue has frozen, remove it from the pan and set it on your coworker’s laptop keyboard with a cup next to it to simulate spilled milk. Caution: the adhesive will thaw fast, so finish the prank as soon as you take it out of the freezer! You don’t want to destroy anyone’s property or make someone weep (unless you’re a jerk).
Don’t Cry Over Spilled Milk
Fish in a Drawer
You’ve heard of pigs in a blanket; now prepare yourself for…fish in a drawer! Only, don’t eat the fish; they’ve already suffered enough as a result of someone else’s prank.
Fish In A Drawer
You Can’t Hide From Nicolas Cage!
Here’s a simple one: Print up a huge print of Nicolas Cage’s face and tape it around the office. You may put it in the cupboard door, beneath the toilet seat, or even save it as your coworker’s desktop image while they’re not looking! All that remains is for you to sit back and listen to the inevitable cries! Extreme mode: Put Mr. Cage in a different location every morning and laugh as your employees grumble about how outdated this game is! Hilarious!
You Can’t Hide From Nicolas Cage!
The Perfect Decoy
You know, sometimes you just want to sleep late and not have to go to work on Monday. You can now sleep in! You only need to send in a lookalike decoy, and you’ve deceived everyone in your office. There is no chance your boss will suspect that it is not you. It is faultless, and anyone who claims different is lying.
The Perfect Decoy
Create a Fake Update
Is there anything more annoying than attempting to work and getting that little popup reminding you that you need to update something RIGHT AWAY? Have you ever wanted to play a prank on a coworker to replicate that annoyance? We’re guessing you hadn’t even considered that until now, but you can now! Simply visit fakeupdate.net and they will generate the ideal fake update for all of your pranking needs. What’s the best part? The updating never stops! Muahaha!
