官員

官 = 㠯 + 宀 : Mnemonic symbol: to symbolize the bureaucracy involved in every governmental system I'll use a folder.

官 = 㠯 + 宀 : Gitta Giraffe just graduated from anthill, and standing in front of it, still wearing her graduation cap, she's ready to assume her post as government official. She already has a folder under each arm and is wearing big safety glasses (be safe at work!).

员 = 口 + 贝 : Mnemonic symbol from 服务员, a waiter.

员 = 口 + 贝 : Yu the Great and a crab are having dinner just inside the anthill's kitchen. They ordered mandarins, and the waiter serves them.
