There’s no perfect job. Every single occupation, no matter how fascinating, glamorous or well-paying, has certain downsides. But sometimes, that downside is rather unexpected — humor!
Whatever job you might have, you’re bound to have heard at least one incredibly bad dad joke related to your occupation. Maybe the first time you heard one of these jokes, you actually rolled on the floor laughing. The second time, you laughed out loud but no more than that. The third time, you chuckled. The fourth time, you smiled. But after hearing the same joke for the fifth time, all the joy and wonder was most likely gone from you by that point. And the same jokes just keep on coming.
So here is a list of the best silly jokes that people in different professions are absolutely sick of hearing. Upvotes your faves, share with your friends, and keep on scrolling. Oh, and we’d be delighted to know if you’ve heard any corny, cheesy or dad-like jokes related to your job — so share your experience with everyone somewhere in the comments!

I recently went through US Customs and the officer asked me the standard "do you have cash more than $10,000 on you?" question.
I responded: "I wish! HURHURHUR"
Her response: "If I had a penny for everyone who cracked that joke in front of me, I'd have the $10,000 by now"
...I totally deserved that.

Bored Panda talked to HaiKarateAquaVelva, who asked Redditors worldwide for their annoying job joke stories. Their thread was so popular, it got over 69,200 upvotes and more than 26,600 comments in just over a day.
“I made the post because at my job, I regularly get a lot of the same types of comments over and over from folks who surely think they're being witty, funny, original, and oh-so-clever… not!”
“This is all harmless of course, and I don't mind it one bit. Even after hearing the same couple jokes/comments for the 823rd time. I've been guilty of doing the same thing more times than I can remember, I'm sure,” HaiKarateAquaVelva noted.
“But I figured there are other job positions that get the same kinda deal. Since my job is a bit unconventional and probably wouldn't resonate with a lot of people if I cited my own experiences, I chose to go with another, more relatable profession, thus the "It didn't scan..." scenario.”
HaikarateAquaVelva, who mentioned that they are a Bored Panda fan, said that they didn’t expect their thread would get so much attention: “But the post I made came from nothing more than a fleeting thought, and I never expected such attention from what was only a whimsical curiosity. It was cool to read through so many responses and having a laugh or two.”

Seriously, do these customers only think the baristas speak and understand 'Starbuck-ese'?
Since starting my job as a writer at Bored Panda, I’ve heard variations of three dad jokes related to my occupation. People tend to ask me if I write about pandas all day. Furthermore, they ask me if I’m bored at my job. And lastly, they wonder if we have any pet pandas at the office. The answers to those, in order, are: No, but I write about cats and dogs a lot; I’m having too much fun to be bored; and we don’t have any pandas (yet), but we’ve got doggos! In fact, there’s a huge dog right next to me at the time of writing, and it’s awesome.
Now, I actually enjoy hearing corny jokes like these. But I appreciate that people working different jobs eventually run out of patience. Like customs workers who keep on hearing ‘I wish’ when they ask people if they have more than 10,000 dollars cash on them. Or repairmen who hear ‘do I get a new one’ when they can’t fix a small problem on a client’s computer. And we can’t forget about nurses who take your blood and are absolutely exasperated after being called a ‘vampire’ for the thousandth time.

When I had my blood taken recently, the man who drew it pointed to the Keurig & said that's where he'll put my blood. He also pointed out that there were no windows because he'd turn to dust. A very friendly vampire who totally embraced the joke!

I just ignore them now and wish them a good day
Humor is one of the best things in the entire world because it helps us relax, increases our lifespan, helps us bond with other people, allows us to see the world in a different light, and helps us stop taking both ourselves and life far too seriously.
#10
I’m in the military. “Thank you for my freedom.” While I appreciate the sentiment, I guarantee I have done literally nothing to protect your freedom. You do that all by yourself by voting.
If you want to thank me for your safety, I’ll accept that. Safety and freedom are not the same thing.
#11

Sir, if I did that, it's a bank robbery.
#12
I do commissions.
“Can you draw a headshot of my dog in color”
“Yeah sure it’ll be 6$ (I do really cheap commissions because it’s my hobby)”
“Oh you want me to pay!? I thought you liked to draw?”
“I do like to draw but it’s no different than buying a cake from a bakery, the shop owner likes to bake but the materials cost them money and we’d like to get some of that money back”
“Ugh never mind I don’t want to pay to get a drawing of my dog” It’s happened at least 6 times in the two years I’ve been doing this
However, humor in modern times is no longer free from intense scrutiny, as some individuals believe that the freedom of expression doesn’t extend to stand-up comedy, for fear of somebody being insulted. Louis CK, Dave Chappelle, and Bill Burr are examples of legendary comedians who have spent their entire lives poking fun at society, injustice, and hypocrisy, wherever these might be found. And yet, they have received a large amount of criticism for some of the jokes they made recently because they drew attention to some uncomfortable details about living in the 21st century. Whether you enjoy these comedians or think that their humor is crass, wouldn’t you say that the freedom to express your thoughts on stage is important to protect?

Stand-up comedy on stage is one thing, but offensive jokes at the office can be a big no-no, depending on company rules. If you’re ever in a situation where a colleague tells a completely inappropriate joke, then there are several things that you can do.

Bro chill, I’m just trying to buy a red bull and some donuts..
According to Small Business, you can ask your co-worker to explain the joke to you, so that they understand why it might be inappropriate. Then, if your colleague doesn’t get it, straight-up tell them in a calm, collected manner that you think what they said was offensive. You can also refuse to laugh at similar jokes.

As a last resort, if your co-worker keeps on throwing out incredibly offensive jokes left and right, consider reporting them to human resources or to a manager. Just make sure you’re not reporting someone for an innocent dad joke that you’ve heard a hundred times before.

That’s actually incredibly insensitive. It’s one thing to joke about a disability if you have it yourself. That’s laughing with. But when you joke about a disability you don’t have, it’s not OK. It’s laughing at. It’s also singling out and poking fun at people who have disabilities. Some people who think they’re comedians should definitely not quit their day jobs.

I did the opposite once as a kid. My father was out of town for work-related reasons so it was just my mother and I at home. The police showed up as they got the wrong address and I was worried they'd arrest her, but I got my wording a bit funny and said, "Please don't arrest my mother; she hasn't broken any laws today!".

Receptionist here. I previously answered calls with, "Company Name, how may I help you?" and 50% of the time (or so it felt like) the response I'd get was, "Well, I don't know how YOU can help me". I switched it up to "how may I assist/direct you" but I still get the ol' "Well, I don't know..."
It's not cute. Just tell why the eff you're calling so we can both move on with our days!

When I was in high school, I worked at Burger King and in conjunction with some ad campaign, we had to say "Welcome to Burger King, we do it for you." You should have heard some of the vulgar comments and suggestions us teenage girls got from grown @$$ men who should have known better. I spent most of my shift being embarrassed until the manager relented and told us we didn't have to say it anymore.

I worked at a branch campus library for my alma mater: "What do you mean you haven't read this book to tell me what it's about? What do you even do it here all day?" Not read obscure textbooks about topics I'm not required to study, that's for sure.
When I worked at a winery: "This must be the best job in the world! (read: you get to sit and drink wine all day)" Yeah because I'm totally allowed to guzzle half the stock while I'm on duty. /s
When I worked as housekeeping in a hospital: "Can you come do that at my house?" I don't even do this at my house, so no.
When I worked for the post office: "You can keep the bills!"/"Bring me anything good today?"/"Is there a check for a million dollars in there?" No thanks./I don't know, I didn't open it./How tf should I know that?
And my husband the teacher gets a lot of "Summers off must be nice, huh?" or "Must be nice to only have to work nine months out of the year, right?"

I’m a singer! I went to college for music and have been doing it professionally for sometime now.
I usually get, “Omg my granddaughter’s cousin’s niece is a singer! You guys should meet up!” Or, “sing something for us!!” And then if I don’t feel up to it they say “how can you be a singer if you don’t want to sing in front of people?” I love it 🙃

Anything in the "arts and entertainment" category - people (generally) don't seem to realize that it actually requires work and effort... like you can't just bust out into an operatic masterpiece on a dime... there's warmup, there's prep, and also... they're KINDA asking you to work for free in a way... I've seen it with friends/acquaintances... and I cringe. To an Actor: "Oh yeah? Then act/do an impression of, like [celebrity]", Voice Actor: "Oh? What impressions can you do (note: Voice Actors don't USUALLY make their whole living on impressions... especially if the person who does the original is still alive and working. What exactly is the point? That voice already exists and is being used)... Artists: "Oh, you're good? Draw me [anything] right now. For free. You should be good, right?" etc. etc.

My husband has dreads and he has people saying how come his hair doesn’t smell because you can’t wash dreads. Well my husband washes his hair twice a day he just doesn’t use conditioner. Just because someone has dreads does not mean they are dirty. Thankfully after 5 years he is having them shaved on November 17th. He has been growing them for 5 years but he is raising money for the Childhood Cancer Association. I don’t like his dreads simply coz I don’t like the feeling and can’t run my fingers through his hair lol.

When I worked at a ski shop setting up snowboard rentals I’d ask how they wanted their stance, regular or goofy, so I could set the bindings up. At least 3 times a week, for the 6 months a year we did rentals, for the 4 years I worked there, I heard from dads “well he rides regular, but he’s pretty goofy hahaha.” By the end of my time there I never even bothered with a fake chuckle anymore, I just didn’t have it in me.

Stocked shelves at a grocery store for a few months in college and some guy was angry because he had been in line for a few minutes and no one was there to ring him up. He found me and asked what was going on and I kindly told him I’d go grab a cashier to check him out and he goes, “No it’s fine, I can just leave with my stuff. I mean, I don’t have to pay if no ones gonna wait on me,” or something like that. I laughed sarcastically with a deadpan face and told a cashier there were customers waiting.
They didn’t pay me enough to stop him if he tried.

I work in a nursing home and sometimes we have a resident that is constantly trying to leave and go home, because they don't remember that they live there. The on going joke is someone asking, "Can't we just tie them to a chair?" (No, we cant. Just for those of you who actually think that's an option.)

I worked at a bank for 4 years. The amount of idiots that go "gimme all your money. Just kidding I'm not here to rob you." Or "I guess all this cash makes it look like I sell drugs. I don't though!" is staggering. And in the future, if anyone wants to make the second joke just know that they usually end up having to flag your account to check for money laundering activities so hopefully you aren't actually selling drugs.
Edit: I also just want to add how many people would come in on Halloween and be pissed and shocked that we would have the audacity to ask them not to wear masks. That being said it was a hunting town so people constantly came in with knives and for some reason we were ok with that.

We need steak education! What do they teach in schools? My mother in law has been guilty of this. She ordered a medium rare steak and sent it back until it was well done. She complained that they never cook her steaks right. I told her she needs to order it well done in the future. She had no idea that was the term she needed. Now she's happier, the wait staff is happier, and I sleep well at night knowing I've made a difference in the world.

Paramedic: After we've dropped a patient off (think interfacility transfer) and heading back to the elevator with an empty stretcher, someone always asks, "hey, can I get a ride to my car?" I usually reply: "Sure, $300, cash up front, but if you want me to clean it first, $500, oh, and you probably want me to clean it." When we're washing the rig at the end of shift, people actually ask what we charge to do their vehicle. Har dee [frikkin] har. Also, my contract fee for automotive washing is $100/hr, minimum 1hr charge. A totally had one guy tell me to learn to take a joke for that! "Nice park job, assh*le!" Hmmm, big white truck, blinky lights, I wonder if you call the local constabulary to report me, what ever will they do? Hmmm, rough night shift, feeling salty and drinking, maybe number 3 doesn't apply?

At Starbucks, we have categories and buttons for all the drinks.
When we get a new drink, there is a new button but no one tells us where the button is. It is either in with normal lattes or frappuccinos or it's under the seasonal category on the opposite side of the screen.
So when a customer orders a new or special drink, we go on a wild goose chase for the button that seems to not exist. The customers will say "Oh you can't find it? How about you make it and just let me take it." My boss just tells us to ring them up for a basic drink and make the special one until the button is added.
The button is never added

Also well known in the beer industry:
“It’s the [insert color] truck out front. HURHURHHR.”
“It’s free today right. HURHURHUR.”
“It’s buy one get 29 free right? HURHURHUR.”
“Man this job must be awesome...getting to sample all this beer. HURHURHUR.”
“Oh he’s paying for mine too. HURHURHUR.” (This one is good because it usually gets the unknowing customer before this and sometimes after this guy to respond with one of the before mentioned jokes)
something breaks “AWWWW MAN I’M REPORTING YOU FOR ALCOHOL ABUSE. HURHURHUR.”

I have crappy veins, I tell them when I get there. I don't want some intern trying to stab me, I want the person who knows what they are doing. I may be used to being stabbed 7-10 times for an IV or blood draw, but that doesn't mean I like it! I also know which arm, generally which spot on that arm, does the best. So, when I say I have crappy veins and ask if you are the most experienced I'm not being facetious, I'm trying to not walk out with both arms and a wrist wrapped from your dumb-a*s stabbing me so much.

Sometimes you want just break the ice, make a connection, say a joke that is not offensive. What's the problem with that?

The reason you never see a bad reaction is because nobody wants to appear rude, but trust me, many of them are internally groaning and rolling their eyes. Think of all the times someone has said something to you that irked you. Remember how you forced a smile instead of snapping their neck? Yeah. That.

I worked as a mail carrier while studying. I got the "you can keep the bills!" quite often, too, and yes, it was a tad eye-roll worthy, but it also always made the person saying it chuckle and if my presence and job that day made a few seniors' days brighter and helped them have a laugh, I fully endorse the overusage of a stale joke. I might not have liked the joke, but I always appreciated someone trying to make a lighthearted attempt at connecting over something silly for a brief moment - it actually made me like people more because so many just like to say something dad-jokey and smile at you. It is nice!

Sometimes you want just break the ice, make a connection, say a joke that is not offensive. What's the problem with that? I've had a lot of good conversation with people I didn't know and they started with "must be free" when there was no price tag. Way better than "call the manager, stupid person".
