Sometimes people just have one job to do and they still manage to screw it up. In fact, they manage to screw it up so bad it's even difficult to believe they didn't notice. Luckily, when you're not the one who messed up it can be pretty funny.

Keep on scrolling to take a look at Bored Panda's list of people who had one job and failed so miserably it's hilarious. To be fair, everyone makes mistakes, but these mistakes... They just bring up one question: WHY?!

This was done on purpose as a joke that demonstrates the need for careful planning.

Does anyone else have the strong urge to either paint that correctly or take a sledge hammer to it? I sure do.

Actually this makes sense if you know the motto, for the 99 cent only store: 99 cents only, 9 days a week, from 9-9. Just part of their original motto.

Order/packaging instructions are for the people who actually pack it. They don't even look at the delivery instructions are those are for the delivery driver so need to be put on the box for them to be able to read it.

When you don't have enough minorities in a company so reuse the one you got as many times as possible and hope nobody notices or there is a glitch in the matrixx.
