The 'Wagie' meme is a variation of the Wojak character that emerged on imageboards like 4chan around 2018. It depicts a stressed individual working a low-paying service job, typically at a fast-food restaurant, serving as a satirical commentary on the repetitive nature of modern employment. Often accompanied by the mocking phrase 'Wagie, wagie, get back in your cagie,' the character highlights the perceived loss of autonomy in the workforce. While originally used as a derogatory term for those with traditional jobs by 'NEET' communities, it has since become a relatable symbol for anyone feeling stuck in the daily grind of the corporate or service world.
