These Tweets Show That Referring to Your Pet as Your Coworker Is the Hilarity We Need in These Tough Times
Working from home has turned a lot of everyday routines upside down, and for plenty of people, the biggest perk is a much quieter office. No one is raiding the fridge, no one is hovering at your desk, and no one is coughing across the room.
For pet owners, though, remote work has also created a new kind of coworker: the furry kind. One Twitter user noticed the trend and asked people to share photos of their new office mates, and the replies are exactly as chaotic and adorable as you'd expect.
Some of these pets look ready for a promotion, while others seem like they are barely holding it together. Either way, the office has never been cuter.
