JOBMALS
Animals at work.
For the shift that ran long, the break that never came, and the coworker who gets it. Jobmals are drawn in Japan — and tired in a way you'll recognize anywhere.
Born in Japan. Working everywhere.

No punchlines about patients — just the part of the job everyone on the floor recognizes. Send one to the coworker who gets it. See all 16 of hers ↓
Short four-panel comics, one shift at a time: the lunch break that wasn't, the 3 AM doctor call, the call light. New ones go up on Instagram and TikTok.

Open GIPHYFirst-year, med-surg, still charting. No punchlines about patients — just the part every nurse recognizes: the time, the room number, the thing that happens every single shift.

He's the boss. He looks like trouble. He isn't. Sixteen stickers from one kitchen — prep, the rush, the taste test, the shutter coming down.

One pack per character, sixteen stickers each. The English packs work in the chat apps most people already use; the Japanese ones live on LINE.
These are image files, not an app-store sticker pack, so the first setup takes a few steps. Personal use only.
The original packs, with the words in Japanese. Sold in the LINE STORE and used inside LINE.
Nobody here is the sidekick. Each one is the main character of their own shift — same station, same café, same train. Three have clocked in so far.
3 of 12 clocked in. Nine more are on their way to work.
The rabbit is the nurse. The bear is the chef. The cat is the stylist. Twelve animals, twelve jobs, no repeats.
No hero, no sidekicks. Each one has their own shift, their own bad day, their own story. Start with anyone.
Sometimes one of them walks through another's story. We won't always point it out.
A few words stay Japanese on purpose. Otsukaresama is what you say to someone who worked hard — roughly, thank you for your tiredness.
