I’ll never claim to have been perfect and amazing at every job I’ve done. From my first jobs in high school to the work I do now, I’ve made plenty of mistakes.
However, some people make mistakes that are a little too big to be forgiven, and we all get to sit back and watch, knowing someone’s getting fired for this.
Now’s not the time.

“I promise, no one’s gonna get into this lot without a ticket.”
“Yeah? And how do you think this will stop them?”
“Okay, I get it, it doesn’t block their car, but I’m hoping it’ll work on an honor system.”
“Maintenance is in no hurry.”
Surely they have more important things to do, like ignoring at least half of the other maintenance requests that come through.
“My colleagues, ladies and gentlemen.”
This is a worse offense than an actual work mistake. If these are your coworkers, you need to find a new job.

Happliday Hoys!
Can we please replace Happy Holidays with Happliday Hoys? It keeps making me laugh. It’d really get me in the holiday spirit.
“I can almost guarantee it said ‘Libary’ before someone caught it and they added the R in the middle.”
The important thing is that it absolutely doesn’t say that. Does it look objectively worse? Yes, but that’s not the point.

The customer is always right until they’re really, really not.
“I ordered ice cream with a cone.”
A weird way to word it, sure, but they should have known. At least they gave the cone its own little plate.

“To everyone at work that has been eating my jellybeans…now the fun begins.”
On one hand, you’ll lose the trust of all your coworkers forever. On the other, once this is empty, you’ll never have to share another jelly bean again.

People don’t really use phone booths anymore, but especially not ones where the phone is on the outside and two feet off the ground.
There goes that surprise.
This is less the delivery driver’s fault and more so the person’s who placed the order seeing as it says “delivery instructions” right there. Also, since when do party supplies come in an obvious box?
