There are literally thousands of comedians who try to get corporate gigs.  Most simply repackage their “comedy club” stand-up routine — without the profanity.  That’s kinda dumb, in my view.  Who wants to hear the same old schtick you’d hear in a bar… at a corporate meeting?

There are a few comedians, however, who actually use the workplace as a vehicle for their humor.  I’ve trolled through YouTube and found short clips from the five that, IMHO, have the funniest routines.  As usual, I’ve added polls so you can express your opinion.
