Was I wrong for making a labor pun to my lazy coworker?
Text content
I told a coworker that I knew he was a C-Section baby by how he avoids labor. I’m on my way to HR now... wish me luck 🥺
Overview
This is a single panel meme with a dark background. The upper portion features white text telling a pun joke: the poster joked to a lazy coworker that they could tell he was a C-section baby because he avoids labor, playing on the double meaning of 'labor' (both work duties and the physical process of childbirth). The text adds that the poster is now on their way to HR for the inappropriate joke, asking viewers to wish them luck alongside a pleading face emoji. The lower portion of the meme shows the upper half of a real person's face, with half-lidded, tired/regretful eyes that match the vibe of getting in trouble for an ill-advised joke.
Origin notes
This meme originated on the Reddit r/meme subreddit, posted with the original title 'was i wrong though?'. It is an original user-created meme, combining a relatable personal workplace anecdote with a wordplay pun, paired with a common reaction face of a tired/regretful person.
