Sometimes the simplest jobs are the easiest ones to mess up! I mean, that’s not really the case… It’s just something people say to make idiots feel better about their hilarious facepalm moments.
And, with this idea in mind, please enjoy these 12+ funny people who had one job, but somehow managed to mess it up!
Don’t Disturb The Plant!
I mean, I like that they didn’t want to disturb the plant in theory, but it looks like that plant might be a little bit dead… Or is that just me?
*Angry Dobby Sounds*
Maybe they just didn’t want to get hit with copyright infringement? Either that, or they thought that the kid’s name was “Deathly Hallows Symbol”?
RELATED STORIES
Not Your Easy Everyday ATM!
I like a bit of a challenge when it comes to getting out cash. It’s not like people work hard enough for their money as it is anyway!
“Painted the fence, boss!”
You know that the person who owns this fence just said, “Can you make sure to paint the numbers on the fence as well?” and that this was the response.
“After months of frustrating traffic backups due to bridge repair and resurfacing, they said F it and expedited the painting.”
Well, as the saying goes, “If a job is worth doing, then don’t bother doing it well and just half arse it, then head to the pub early!” That is the saying, right?
Who On Earth Cut That First Piece?!
Well, that is one efficient and surefire way to make yourself the absolutely hated one in the office!
“You would think this was temporary, but the new road has been finished for nearly 3 months.”
I like that they clearly started by doing the lines and then got halfway through and just drew a box and scribbled through it like a child so that they could finish a little earlier that day.
Great Job Of Installing And Fixing The Fan, Dave!
One person suggested that maybe they installed the fan here to take advantage of the missing section that was already in that post! However, I can’t say I believe that.
I’m Not Lovin’ It!
Ah, looks like they ordered from the new special saver menu, also known as the “McCan’tBeBothered” range.
Not Exactly Your Friendly Neighborhood Spiderman!
I think that someone should look into the person who designed these balloons! Also, don’t be getting these for a children’s birthday party.
“I’m a painter, not an English major.”
It’s just a shame that there wasn’t something bright red with “stop” written on it nearby for them to use as reference.
“It’s not my job to place the tiles in the right spot.”
Something tells me that this might actually be a really abstract bit of art and not just a mistake? Although, that might actually say more about my knowledge of the world of art in reality.
Something’s Off About That!
Do you reckon that they swapped them back around, or just left it and claimed that it was meant to be some abstract art piece, like that weird tile person? That’s probably what I would do.
If You Say So!
“So, Steve, this was your idea for getting more people to come to the store?”
“Yeah, don’t we want people to be taking drugs?”
“Well, yes, but also no!”
“Put up and edited the sign!”
Wow, what an absolute shower of errors. Also, why did they change the font sporadically throughout in the first place?
“Must’ve [run] out of yellow paint.”
The exacerbated hand really says it all. Maybe it is just a really, really, really light shade of yellow…so light that it is actually white?
That’s Close Enough, I Guess!
“Dave, you’ve been killing it at the moment! How are you working so fast?”
“Here’s a hot tip, Allan. Do four holes instead of five.”
“Wait, what?”
“I draw lines, not circles.”
There isn’t even an attempt at drawing a neat circle here. This is an absolute masterclass in not being even remotely arsed to do your job properly!
“I’ve put the manhole cover back boss.”
It just baffles me that there are people out there who could leave this looking like that and not want to rip their skin off!
So Close, Yet So Far!
Now you just need to pick up the house and shuffle it along a meter or two! It’s a bit of a roundabout way of getting the job done, but it’ll get done!
