12 Reasons Work BFFs are the Bees Knees


Let's face it, going to work sucks. You have to wake up, look slightly human, and then deal with people for the vast majority of your day. The only thing that makes going to work tolerable is walking in and seeing that one person that just makes you smile. Yep, you got it, your work bff. Here are a few reasons why this person is more important than most and why you should never let them go

They are the first one to say good morning to you...

Even though it may end with "hoe" or "skank", you know they truly mean it.

...but they understand not to talk to you until AFTER you have consumed at least one cup of coffee.

Honestly though, why do people even talk in the morning? Just stop.

They help the day go by faster...

Or at least they understand how slow time truly does go during the work day.

...and they applaud you for your simple successes.

Even if that means all you did was put on pants.

They give you the "look"....

You know, sometimes people just shouldn't tell stories.

...and they understand your financial struggles because they also have them.

They know what it's like to be living off of spaghettios and mac and cheese.

They tend to say what you are thinking and if they don't say it, they are also thinking it....

Your boss may be on to you two, but it's all good.

..and you frequently say things to each other that other people shouldn't hear because it will more than likely offend them.

Do I mean it when I say I will stab you in the neck? No, but I'm still going to say it anyway.

You have way too many inside jokes for comfort....

Aaaaaand it probably pisses off your coworkers.

..and that keeps you from walking off the job on a daily basis.

And they probably help you keep your job by keeping you from murdering someone, too.

Days that they aren't there don't seem right...

The day goes by very slow and you don't have anyone to talk to and really it's just terrible.

..and at the end of the day, you don't know how you would survive without them.

But why would you even want to anyway?

Cherish those work bffs, everyone. They are truly hard to find.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
