Who Needs a Comedy Special When You Have These Boomer Dad Jokes?

Microsoft Skills

We’ve all been there — trying to impress someone at work or during an interview, only to blurt out something ridiculous. This joke about “Microsoft Office skills” plays off that tension with a clever pun that’s equal parts cringe and clever. It’s a light-hearted jab at how we sometimes take office software way too seriously.

But it also captures something deeper about workplace culture. Humor can be an asset, helping to break the ice or stand out in a sea of resumes. If you can make someone laugh in a professional setting, you’re probably doing something right. So maybe being able to joke about Excel really is a skill — one that opens doors in more ways than one.
