End of Year Corporate Dumb F*ckery

The middle of Q4 is on the horizon.. so let the End of year corporate dumb fuckery begin! Jeremy and Jimmy dive headfirst into the annual avalanche of End-of-Year Corporate Nonsense. From hiring freezes that somehow come with triple workloads, to surprise reorgs dropped like coal in your inbox on December 29th, it’s a festive buffet of dysfunction.

We spotlight the odd job of Pet Food Taster (yes, they actually eat it), and we officially launch The Employee Feedback Line at 914-357-4178 — your new outlet for workplace rants, boss meltdowns, and holiday party trauma. Call in, scream into the void, and maybe get featured in a future episode.

Seasons Meetings, from ShopAboveMyPaygrade.com

Welcome to the most wonderful time of the fiscal year. The Season’s Meetings Collection celebrates the chaos of corporate holiday spirit — where gift exchanges are awkward, HR warnings are plentiful, and we're all hoping someone spikes the eggnog at the office party. Because nothing says “happy holidays” like pretending to enjoy another mandatory Zoom party.

About the Podcast

Above My Paygrade
A comedy podcast focused on corporate chaos, from offsite travel disasters to Teams meeting meltdowns. If you've ever questioned your sanity during performance reviews, this podcast is your emotional PTO.
Above My Paygrade is the comedy podcast for anyone who's ever muted themselves to scream during a Teams meeting. We dive headfirst into the absurdity of corporate life—from offsite travel disasters and return-to-office guilt trips to Slack etiquette, horrible bosses, and survival tips for not looking like a total idiot in front of your coworkers.
Each episode blends satire, emotional truth, and listener-submitted chaos into segments like “Out of Office Email or Cry for Help?” and riffing on the inevitable Ai takeover. It’s catharsis for the cubicle crowd, therapy for the remote warriors, and a safe space to laugh at the madness we call work. 50% of our waking hours is spent working… that makes us cry a little..
