Cannibals at the Office

4 cannibals apply for a job at a giant corporation well you guys seem pretty qualified and the 4 cannibals agree he says we’re missing an office cleaner and he believes him and goes home for the day which one of you idiots had something to do with this for months we’ve been getting away with feasting on

A bearded man tells a workplace joke about four cannibals who get hired by a giant corporation after promising not to eat the staff. The punchline is that they secretly eat senior employees without anyone noticing, but one cannibal ruins everything by eating the office cleaner, someone people actually miss; it works as an absurd dark-humor reaction to workplace incompetence or poor judgment.

Four cannibals apply for a job at a giant corporation and Manager that's interviewing them says well you guys seem pretty qualified I'll hire you so long as you promise not to eat any of the other staff And the four cannibals agree and they get a job at the big corporation Everything is going well for a while and one day the boss calls them into his office He says we're missing an office cleaner and I need to know if one of you four had anything to do with it All of them swear that they didn't and he believes them and goes home for the day. After the boss leaves, the leader of the four cannibals turns to him and says, which one of you idiots had something to do with this? And one of them sheepishly raises their hand. He says, you fool! For months we've been getting away with feasting on project directors, managers, HR staff and team leaders and you have to go and eat somebody they'll actually miss.
