Office Extinct Species: A Eulogy for the Fallen (and Funnier)

Do you recall when all offices were sterile places of bland beige walls and lukewarm coffee?

I do. And it was awful and yet charming in its own way.

Before the rise of Work from home and endless Zoom calls, the office was a wild savanna.

Majestic creatures roamed this land, now only whispered about in tales of old.

The Snack Hoarder:

➣ This elusive beast would vanish with entire boxes of cookies

➣ Emerging hours later with crumbs dusting their keyboard like a furry yeti.

➣ Sadly, the pandemic scattered the snack hoarders

➣ Sending them into permanent hibernation.

The Printer Whisperer:

➞ A legendary figure who tamed even the most ancient printers from their paper jams.

➞ Now, replaced by soulless IT bots who mutter incantations of "driver updates"

➞ And leave us mortals to wrestle with toner ghosts.

The Meeting Bard:

➢ This master of the PowerPoint could spin a yarn about stapler shortages

➢ And make it more thrilling than any Netflix drama.

➢ Extinct thanks to death by Zoom

➢ Their motivational mantras replaced by awkward silences and dropped calls.

The Office Clown:

➞  The life of the break room

➞ Whose bad jokes were the cardio of our soul-crushing commutes.

➞  Now, video calls haven't quite grasped the nuance of a well-timed puns

➞  The Clown's laughter has faded into the digital void.

The Desk Plant:

➣  A beacon of oxygen in the cubicle jungle

➣ Our steady green friend, outlived trends and to-do lists

➣  A true survivor in the office's shifting sands.

➣ But alas, the rise of home offices and forgetful waterings led to their withering demise.

So raise a lukewarm, sad coffee to these extinct office legends.

We may mourn their passing, but let's find comfort in their enduring spirit.

It lives on in the rogue stapler malfunctions and the aroma of microwaved mysteries.

And the echoe of that one guy's really bad joke.
