Office-furniture Memes

The beautiful irony of corporate cost-cutting coming full circle. Management gleefully replaces all the programmers with AI to save money, only to realize that without programmers, their infrastructure collapses faster than a null pointer exception. But here's the kicker: they can't even liquidate their Herman Miller chairs because—surprise—there's no one left to maintain the e-commerce platform or handle the sales automation. The chair salesman getting fired is the cherry on top of this schadenfreude sundae. The real genius here is the second panel's realization: "We should've automated this a long time ago." Yeah buddy, and who exactly did you think was going to build, maintain, and debug that automation? The AI that hallucinates SQL queries? This is basically every executive's fever dream meeting reality's segmentation fault. Fun fact: This scenario is basically the tech industry's version of the paperclip maximizer thought experiment, except instead of converting the universe into paperclips, we're converting functional companies into warehouses full of unsellable office furniture.
