Professionals on Twitter Are Describing Their Jobs Through Bad Stock Photos and It’s Hilarious

Jun 29, 2020   •   Ina Louise Manto

When meeting new people, one of the first questions you’re asked (other than your name) is usually something along the lines of, “so what do you do for a living?” While it’s easy to just give a run-of-the-mill answer without any detailed explanations, professionals on Twitter are giving a new spin to their answers with #BadStockPhotosOfMyJob. Stock photos are a gold mine of hilarious memes and these badly portrayed jobs may or may not accurately describe a profession:

 

OB/GYN

This may be a tweet from two years ago but it’s the one that started it all. A visit to the OB/GYN is probably one of the most awkward and intimate things you’ll ever have to put up with. What would you do after braving through minutes of awkward small talk as you’re being examined and receive a thumbs up? Okay, thank you… Heh.

Manager

Now, this is another level of micromanaging. Oh, to be a manager whose only task is to sneak up on their employees. Have you encountered a boss like this? Don’t worry, we won’t tell.

 

Accountant

This profession has one of the funniest entries:

That much barya would’ve been really useful in our daily commute before the quarantine. Also another situation: that familiar coin-counting bonanza as a kid at the end of the year when you finally crack your piggy bank open.

Magnifying glasses are truly essential in an accountant/auditor’s life. It makes them solve cases faster just like a true detective.

Because they probably always need to make their workspaces Instagram flat lay ready.

 

Voice Over Artist

The ASMR tingles you’ll get when a voice artist is about to record. “1-2-3, mic test” followed by aggressive mouth sounds. *Claps* because that’s the cue you’re about to start, right?

 

Pharmacist

Just imagine buying your prescribed medications and the pharmacist starts giving them to you this way. Are you really at a pharmacy or at a Candy Corner branch? Kuya, 100g of pills, please.

 

Content Team Lead

Because as a team lead, this is how you boost morale especially when everyone’s stressed over a deadline. Wear a cape and start dancing on the table!

 

Writer

I’m totally writing this article using my typewriter and I’m looking forward to printing this at the end of the day and have it for dinner. Yum! Better invest in a pair of suspenders and a smoke pipe because I have to look this edgy when writing.

Legend says the greatest crime novels were written with a typewriter. Also, you definitely need that grenade hidden in a book for more inspiration.

My editor [hi!] and I all day. LOL!

 

Electrician

You don’t have to be a professional to know that this is a terrible idea.
