The meme is structured as a humorous three-way comparison. The top section displays a standard office ergonomics guide: the left side, labeled 'Wrong' with a red cross, shows a person slouching forward in bad posture while working at a desk. The right side, labeled 'Right' with a green checkmark, shows a person sitting upright in recommended ergonomic posture. The bottom section, labeled 'ME', features a photograph of an extremely relaxed orange cat splayed on its back in a small wicker chair, with a laptop resting on its stomach, completely disregarding all proper posture guidelines, acting as a relatable joke about how most people actually position themselves when working on computers.

The top section labeled 'NO' depicts incorrect desk posture: a male office worker sits slouched at his desk with bent wrists while using a computer, with bullet points marking slouched shoulders and bent wrists as bad practices. The bottom 'YES' section replaces expected correct posture tips with an absurdly extreme solution: the recommended actions are 'Running into woods' and 'Never to be seen again', with an illustration of the same worker running away outside the office window, leaving his empty desk and chair behind. The joke satirizes the frustration of dealing with repetitive strain injuries from desk work by suggesting abandoning work entirely as the only viable fix.

This three-panel meme contrasts standard posture guidance for computer use with relatable real-world behavior. The top-left panel labeled 'NO' shows an incorrect, non-ergonomic desk setup with red prohibition markers pointing to poor posture choices including slouching, incorrect screen height, non-supportive seating, and improper foot placement. The top-right panel labeled 'YES' shows the recommended ergonomic setup with green checkmarks, noting a 30-degree viewing angle and minimum 60cm screen distance, proper back support, aligned arm and leg positions, and an ergonomic office chair. The bottom panel labeled 'ME' features a crudely drawn, contorted stick figure in an absurdly awkward, unhinged posture slouching half-off a chair with legs splayed, one leg raised in the air, and arms twisted to reach the keyboard, serving as a punchline about how most people ignore official ergonomic advice in favor of uncomfortable but subjectively comfortable sitting positions.
