Blogs to Make You Smile

Posted by:

Do you like to laugh? I do – even when it comes to business. Recently I’ve discovered some very funny blogs you really ought to check out.

Andrew’s blog name and tagline say it all.

Another Day, Another Ten Cents. The story of a day in the life of an unsuccessful office worker.

Andrew has a unique approach to blogging – he’s literally chronicling a day in the life. Sort of like a blogging “Ulysses”, only funny and comprehensible.

Mike Dewitt’s blog, Spooky Action, similarly looks at business (and other stuff) with a grin. He’s also got the tagline mojo working -

It’s a productive irreverance vs. rest practices smackdown!

There you go.

Now, from Chuck Westbrook, a blog with a name for the ages, I Hate Your Job. But don’t let the sarcastic vibes fool you. For those who have lost their enthusiasm for work, Chuck delivers humor, hope and encouragement. We can all use a dose of that once in a while!

Finally, Robert Hruzak’s Middle Zone Musings is consistently thought provoking and funny – wickedly so at times. His taste in humorous photos is impeccable.

Have you discovered blogs that mix business with pleasure? Let us know!

  1. I enjoy reading Chuck’s blog too. It is nice to have someone who hates my job as much as I do (or should I say my last job). Makes me glad that I am sticking with freelancing!

  2. Thanks guys–I’m so glad that you’re enjoying my blog. It was a tough balance to strike with naming my blog–I wanted to attract the dissatisfied, but I’m not cynical or negative.

    I think if I weren’t the author, I would most enjoy my blog if I were an ex-cubical dweller like you said, Matt.

  3. Please keep those encouraging words coming, Chuck!

  4. Brad, I just started a post for belly laughs and I came looking for some humor so here’s a real jackpot. ;-)

    Where are you hiding your cartoons these days?

  5. Hi Robyn – look forward to reading your post! You’ll see my cartoons here about once a week … I’ll publish it tomorrow just for you!

  6. Brad, I’ll include them both by the time I publish! ;-)

  7. Thanks Robyn – now I’m really curious what you’re cooking up over there. :)

  8. Thank you very much, Brad.

    I’m glad you enjoy reading my blog.

    Likewise, I like your blog – it provides an an effective mix of light-hearted humor and valuable information.

    I particularly enjoy your business cartoons and your interesting definitions of words not commonly used in every day English.

    Cheers

    Andrew

  9. Thanks Andrew! I appreciate your feedback & hope you’ll be back.
