HAPPY Hump Day!!! Thought this might be something fun to do to break up the week. What GIF would you use to describe your job and why?
Here is the GIF I would use to describe what it's like being a Site Reliability Engineer.
Often when we speed one thing up the load transfers to another. You put out one fire and you start one somewhere else. Sometimes it's a little hectic, but I wouldn't have it any other way! :D
Let's see your GIFs!

I want to hit more than one 💓 for this.
omg lol this is EPIC!
This is amazing and scarily accurate ha!

HAHAHA I was waiting for someone to pull out an IT Crowd GIF. Such a good show!
Can't argue with that. It is one of my all time favourite shows. :)
QA:
This GIF just went in our QA slack channel and got major props :D
You misspelled "IA"
totally accurate!
I have dozens of these in my head, each for a different aspect of an app.
Nothing beats a good XKCD!
Oh have definitely had more than a few days like this!
First time I saw this I laughed so hard I cried. This is what fixing a bug in production feels like. 😆
I'm choosing the 5th circle of developer hell
so good i looked for the full ver: blog.toggl.com/seven-levels-develo...
For now I'm in paternal leave
OMG YES! I def feel like this some days!
and when you call me
also me sometimes
Going to have to bend the rules and use two GIFs to cover all use cases.
Any client facing developer will feel this when going through ridiculous, nonsensical amends.
not a gif but...
"I really thought this was going to work out fine..."
Me in the startup that learns by doing daily.
Had this moment IRL today and it was fabulous :D twitter.com/molly_struve/status/10...
Sometimes you are and then other times, 2 days later, "No, really, this time I am close!" 😂
It's not a gif but I did make it for my job. Some days are better than others...
true
Waiting for stuff to get signed off like...
This would be mine. Not a lot of devs to work with and they’d be the only ones to get what I do.
GREAT movie!!! The guys I work with got me to watch it for the first time last year, not I constantly pull PR GIFs from it.
Do you remember the name of the movie? I have never seen and am curious to watch it
Office Space!
It's just a flesh wound...
Waiting for the Holy hand grenade one :)
I thought in this very gif, just checking nobody posted it before me... ✅
I was scrolling down the comments, waiting for this one to pop up. :-)
Everyday :C
Me IRL after I set something on fire lol
Waiting to see if your deployment succeeds:
AANNNNDDD then it fails
Lol that's a good one 😀
When I see the code I have to work with
I can hear this gif
I can hear him saying the line in my head... I nearly spit coffee on my monitor when I saw this. 😂
BAHAHAHA I have never seen this one and I love it!
When I hear the deadline was last week.
Go, go, gadget coding hands! lol
Watching the barely-ordered chaos as a Data Scientist and Software Engineer at a startup.
...something's fucky
Every. Single. Day. lol
Me, when the Sales Guy emails saying he hasn't seen his order processed, and it's because I'm fixing a bug.
OMG YES! 😂
Amazing
Better late than never...
Depending on the day, my job is...
or
/somewhere in between.
OMG that first GIF 😂😂
Sorry I'm a bit late but this post is amazing!
And my favorite:
I LOVE all of these!!!! 😍
I deal with a lot of red tape, so
Being a contractor and moving from project to project: i.imgur.com/TOsmDTs.gif
Although I'm full time, due to some aspects of my company's new business models this is a sentiment I can co-sign.
And at least in my case, there are a bunch of other pods dropping in formation and Capsule Corporation has issued us all portable Zeppelins... metaphor extension transitions into drifting off into make believe happy place
I LOVE this one and have no idea how I've never found it before.
I'm a data engineer and this might be the best GIF I've ever seen for my job.
