They say that money changes people. It does, and so does heartbreak, war, having children, falling in love, or failing at a career. But you know what else does that? There is this one industry that people leave utterly different from when they started the job. None have returned the same. It's the customer service industry.

These people have heard, seen, and endured so much that they have become a more evolved and adapted species of Homo sapiens. According to stats published on Tidio, a staggering 95% of customer service employees have to deal with rude, angry, and unpleasant customers. Legend even says that every night some have nightmares about people at the table they forgot to bring the ketchup to. 

All jokes aside, customer service is a hard job that must be tackled with humor to survive. It is no wonder why the internet is flooded with funny customer service memes and working in retail jokes. Heck, there are even pages dedicated to sharing call center memes! Why is humanity even trying to reach out and talk to aliens? We've got plenty of Martians and Venusians, aka, the customers, walking the Earth already! Frankly, those who have spent years in customer service deserve a master's degree in communications and praise for their mental stability! Your approach in a job where one must communicate with many different people (with different attitudes) really is the key.

Turning silly and outlandish comments into funny customer service jokes for others to laugh at really is the only way to keep sane in "insane" circumstances. So let's applaud all the hardworking customer service peeps because there wouldn't be so many customer service jokes and work puns to chuckle at if it wasn't for them. Below, we've compiled a lengthy list of funny work jokes and puns from inside the industry. So, take a look and let us know whether you have any work jokes or just funny jokes about customer service to share with us!
