From working with octopuses to proving that all OT practitioners are Jason Bourne, you and your OT colleagues crack us up. I asked my coworkers and our Instagram followers to share the funniest OT-related things you’ve seen on social media this year.

Hope some of these make you smile and laugh!

Overheard my 4yr old talking to her friend about what they want to when they grow up. (I’m a Children’s OT)

F: What does she do?
D: She’s an Octopus Scientist.
F: What’s that?
D: She helps children and octopuses who find things tricky.

Sitting in an airport while traveling with a PT colleague: She asks if I noticed the atypical gait pattern of the elderly man who just walked by us. No, I say, I was busy watching the kid in the aisle across from us try to figure out how to tie his shoe. 🤣 #PT #OT

Waited for the link to go live to book my AOTA conference hotel in New Orleans like I’d wait to get tickets for a Beyoncé concert.

Hi I am LaToya, a new occupational therapist assistant student. It is the first time I have ever read and seen memes for occupational therapy, I thought they were pretty funny. I needed this humor, to intervene with my studies this week.
