James Mason | Creator of Office Bantomime

Creator of Office Bantomime, turning workplace chaos, toxic coworkers, and everyday office absurdity into relatable humour, archetypes, and brutally honest content.

Hi, I’m James — and I’ve definitely worked with “that” coworker.

I created Office Bantomime to make sense of modern work — the chaos, the characters, and the stuff everyone experiences but no one says out loud.

James - Office Bantomime

After years in corporate environments, one thing became obvious: every office has the same characters.

The micromanager. The office snake. The person who’s always “busy” but somehow never delivers anything useful.

Office Bantomime was built to bring those characters to life — through humour, satire, and painfully relatable content.

  • 👥 Office Archetypes you’ll instantly recognise
  • 🚩 “21 Signs” posts that hit a little too close to home
  • 🏷️ Corporate jargon explained (finally)
  • 🔥 Real workplace stories and chaos

Thousands of people are already reading, sharing, and recognising their workplace in these posts — and it’s only getting bigger.

If you’ve ever sat in a meeting thinking “what is the point of this?” — you’re exactly who this site is for.
