‘Intern of the Month’ post by Malaysian company goes viral for looking like obituary<\/h2>\n

A Malaysian lubricant oil and diesel engine company has found itself in the spotlight after its “Intern of the Month” announcement ended up looking a little more memorial than motivational.<\/p>\n

On 20 Nov, EXN Lube shared a congratulatory Instagram post celebrating its top-performing intern.<\/p>\n

But instead of a straightforward accolade, someone got a little too carried away with the design — and the effect wasn’t quite what they intended.<\/p>\n

The graphic featured an image of the intern, Sam Chin, set against a bright blue sky with soft clouds and white doves, a visual combination many felt was better suited for a farewell tribute than a work milestone.<\/p>\n

The caption certainly didn’t help either:<\/p>\n

Netizens quickly filled the comments section, with many admitting they had to do a double-take when the post first appeared on their feeds.<\/p>\n

Several leaned into the unintended obituary aesthetic, leaving tongue-in-cheek comments that played on phrases usually reserved for real death announcements.<\/p>\n

Some confessed they almost typed “RIP” before catching themselves, while others praised the designer as a “genius” for unintentionally sparking the viral moment.<\/p>\n

When someone asked why management had approved the design, EXN Lube kept the humour going with a simple reply: “Because intern post.”<\/p>\n

Intern clarifies he’s ‘still here’<\/h3>\n

The Instagram account apparently belonging to the intern later joined the fun, reassuring everyone that he’s “still here”.<\/p>\n

EXN Lube also followed up with a humorous clarification of its own, telling followers not to worry and explaining that the design was meant to look uplifting — though it clearly flew a little too high in execution.<\/p>\n
