If you’ve ever clocked into a job that felt like a slow descent into madness, you need to meet your spirit animal: Kariage-kun .

For the uninitiated, Kariage-kun (かりあげくん) is a legendary Japanese manga by Masashi Ueda. Running since 1979, it holds the Guinness World Record for the most volumes published for a single manga series (over 200!). The strip follows the misadventures of a petty, lazy, yet strangely genius office worker who will do anything to shirk responsibility, scam a free meal, or get back at his boss.
