How do you trigger a click on the <button></button> element with jquery?

I know this might be very simple but I can't get it to work. I am trying to trigger a click on a on page load. Below is the code I am using.

HTML

<button class="triggerme"></button>

JQUERY

$(document).ready(function(){
   $(".triggerme").trigger("click");
});

I can't change it to an input, or anchor.
