Workplace Comedy Script Writer Needed
Budget: $10 – $30 CAD
We're looking for a creative writer who can consistently come up with funny, relatable workplace comedy concepts for short-form videos.
Topics may include:
• Hiring problems
• Staffing shortages
• Scheduling chaos
• Payroll headaches
• Employee behavior
• Manager stress
• Workplace culture
Examples:
• Employee calls in sick, then gets caught livestreaming from a rooftop day party while coworkers are covering their shift.
• New veterinary assistant accidentally sends a family home with the wrong dog.
IDEAL CANDIDATE
• Understands TikTok, Reels, and Shorts humor
• Understands audience retention and pacing
• Thinks visually, not just through dialogue
• Can build jokes through situations, escalation, timing, and reactions
• Understands workplace culture and manager/employee dynamics
• Can write short, punchy dialogue when needed
• Can create concepts that feel authentic and relatable
IMPORTANT
Most videos are 15–45 seconds. The best concepts are visual-first and do not rely on long conversations or excessive dialogue. Concepts should be visual, original, relatable, and funny enough to make managers, business owners, and employees immediately say: "Yep, I've seen that."
Think:
✓ Relatable
✓ Visual
✓ Easy to understand quickly
✓ Strong punchline
✓ Shareable
Not:
✗ Long explanations
✗ Complex stories
✗ Dialogue-heavy scenes
✗ Stand-up comedy style writing
FOR EACH CONCEPT PROVIDE
• Title
• Core joke
• Main character(s)
• Brief scene progression
• Example dialogue or punchline
• Optional engagement hook or CTA if it naturally fits
No AI prompting required.
I need approximately 21 concepts per week.
TO APPLY
1. Submit ONE original workplace comedy concept using the format above.
2. What is your best price for a weekly batch of 21 concepts?
* Our budget is limited right now, but there is room to grow together and potentially become a long-term/full-time role if results are consistently strong.
