While some employees are praised for how hardworking and reliable they are, others don’t stretch themselves thin over work-related matters. That’s fair enough; not everyone is equally eager to walk the extra mile when they don’t have to.
But some employees do so little, they barely cover what’s expected of them; and even then, often in a way that makes their superiors want to smack their hand to their forehead (or facepalm, as the youth would say). Today, we have gathered some of the best of such facepalm moments, shared on the ‘Not My Job’ subreddit, which perfectly depict just how little some employees are willing to do. Scroll down to find them on the list below and enjoy.

A Fork In The Road
Someone listened to Yogi Berra, Yankees catcher, alleged koan philosopher and ursine inspiration: "When you come to a fork in the road, take it!"
This has to be fake as a road paint roller wouldn't leave such a good impression
these lines or stripes are sprayed, not rolled, so might not be fake

Not My Job To Add The Subtitles
As a deaf person I rely on captions and you often see some very weird mistakes. Auto captions are the bane of my life, they can be very funny with mis hearing words but also means I miss out on what is being said. I'm 'lucky' that I used to be hearing, so know what words sounds like so can say the wrong sentence/ word in my head and try and work out what it was meant to say. Those who are deaf from birth can't. I wish more video content creators would add human written captions to their videos. Doesn't just help those who can't hear, but also those watching in public with no headphones and those who speak that language as a second language.
Also helps me as an autistic person with auditory processing issues! I can usually understand fine without them, but my understanding lags slower than it would with subtitles. I do hate when people put unrelated jokes in the captions instead of real subtitles… it’s just an annoyance for me but it fully bars some people from being able to understand the video at all!
Load More Replies...Went deaf for nearly 8 weeks after a bad bout of flu (my own fault as I couldn’t be bothered to go for my annual flu jab). Trying to watch the news was at first funny because of the many mistakes but soon became impossible to follow as the subtitles couldn’t keep up with the presenters.
Looks like a fansub. Professional subtitlers would get fired for doing that. (For those don't know, "fansubs" are copies of anime programs and movies that have been subtitled by volunteer fans and distributed (technically illegally) mostly in the US. At one time, this was how we got almost all our anime. Now it's much less common, both because of distributor crackdowns and the fact that most shows stream with more professional subtitles very soon after initial release on sites like Crunchyroll.)
If you've ever seen Crazy Russian Hacker on YouTube, the captions are hilarious. I don't know if it's because of his strong Russian accent or what, but I LOL every time I watch one of his videos.
There are many reasons some people don’t feel eager to do their best at work. It’s safe to assume that not feeling appreciated or looked after is likely to be one of them. Unfortunately, recent statistics reveal that only a few employed adults can say their employer really cares for their well-being.
Gallup’s 2022 survey found that fewer than one in four employed people think that their employer cares for their well-being. Data shows that the number has reached the lowest point in almost a decade, which followed a somewhat sudden rise during the pandemic.
Yup Boss, I Ordered A Normal-Sized Amount Of Fries For Our Normal-Sized Store
Ain't that the truth! It's obvious that it's not on my side of the pond, we never get sales like that, even on overstock items.
Load More Replies...Didn't they also have a "Grant ordered too many hams sale"? Wasn't that in another post?
This reminds me of the part in Portal 2 with the potato batteries, and Chell wrote about someone ordering too many potatoes
I was wondering why Maple syrup is right above the fries but then I thought, maybe there's frozen waffles next to the fries and this satisfied my ADHD distracted by weird details brain
The maple syrup (although technically that is table syrup, not the good stuff) is above the fries because this is in a Canadian No Frills store, and maple syrup belongs pretty much anywhere we want it! Now, I've never actually put syrup on fries, at least, not intentionally - certainly it gets mixed in with the home fries sometimes when they're on the same plate as the pancakes - but it doesn't sound like a half bad idea. I do put (pure) maple syrup on my scrambled eggs, though. If that sounds odd, it's essentially just French toast minus the bread.

According to Gallup, a decade ago, in 2013, the number of employees who felt cared for wasn’t high either, comprising roughly 23.5% full and part-time workers in the US. By 2019, it increased to 29%, which rose to 49% just a year later in 2020.
That’s because faced with the outbreak of Covid, companies showed genuine concern and came up with plans to ensure the well-being of their employees during the difficult time.

A 2020 survey revealed that more employed people started viewing their company in a more positive (43%) rather than negative (23%) light after seeing the way they handled the pandemic; roughly a third of respondents said the company’s response didn’t alter their opinion about it.
Some of the main steps workplaces took to ensure the well-being of their employees, according to the survey, were encouraging them to stay at home if sick, limiting exposure between them and the customers, and facilitating remote work to the best of their ability, among other things.

Gallup found that since the peak in 2020, when employees felt cared for the most, the fond feeling has been slowly fading away. Needless to say, the companies don’t benefit from that much.
That’s because employees feeling well-taken care of are significantly less likely to actively look for a new job or report experiencing burnout; they are also more likely to strongly advocate for their company and feel more engaged at work. Their views and actions might do a 180, though, if they don’t feel comfortable in the workplace.

While the extent to which employees feel tended to is diminishing, the level of work-related stress has reportedly been on the rise over the recent years. Surveys show that 2022 was the second year in a row when employee stress levels reached new heights as roughly 44% of them admit to feeling work-related anxiety.

Quite often, high levels of stress at work lead to burnout, which can become the reason a person resorts to doing the bare minimum. But let’s be honest, chances are some employees are just lazy, and that might lead to similar results.
Some people even believe that the two are connected; nearly three in four of them say that laziness can contribute to workplace stress.

Whether stressed, lazy, or unmotivated due to lack of care from the company, (or for any other reason, for that matter) some workers don’t feel the need to impress anyone with their performance or earn the title of the employee of the month. And while that might be upsetting for their employers, members of the ‘Not My Job’ community can get a hearty laugh at some of the examples of their achievements.

In fact, I'm very much reminded of the air vent in the kitchen I've just replaced - been there for five years, using the extractor fan, never really thought much about it although was aware that some of the upper surfaces were a bit greasy. Anyway, ,turns out that they'd installed the cooker hood, properly fitted into the unit, flexible outlet pipe going up through the unit, then boxed-in on top of the cabinets and to the outer wall. Had been puzzled for a while as to how the vent on the outside appeared to be several metres away, but finally discovered that there was in fact no outlet at all. The pipe just went close to the wall and stopped. You can imagine how nasty the inside of the boxed-in pieces was. The irony is that it;s a wooden building, double-skinned with about a 30cm, well insulated gap, so the additional effort to install the outlet was minimal and I could just never work out how or why somebody would go to all that effort but then leave the last bit undone.

I suspect that at this company it goes without saying.
Load More Replies...OO I had to follow up on this one. Turns out an ex employee took an existing post, edited it and reposted it from his own account. He is presently dealing with legal issues over this!
I could totally see the employee editing back in the text that was removed from the original posting. Sure, doesn't mean he shouldn't get sued but I could obviously see something like the edited text actually being real.
Load More Replies...The company stated the job posting was not authorized or posted by active Arthur Grand employees. The company said a former employee edited an existing posting, added discriminatory language, and reposted the position through his own account.
“ The company denies responsibility for the posting but appears to be having trouble keeping their story straight. Originally, they blamed the posting on “a new junior recruiter” at the firm. This excuse had been anticipated on Twitter in the post, “How long before they blame an intern or say they were hacked?” That posted was proven to be correct on both points when Arthur Grand later changed its official statement to include, “This job posting was neither authorized nor posted by Arthur Grand or its employees. A former employee took an existing posting and added discriminatory language, then reposted it through his own account. Necessary legal action has been initiated.”” https://www.channelfutures.com/diversity-inclusion/arthur-grand-technologies-whites-only-job-posting-sparks-furor

Hungary Received 170k Euros From Eu Fund To Build A Tree Top Walk. Unfortunately The Forest Was Cut Down Before The Walkway Was Completed
Hungarian here: believe it or not,that is what they said. Then added,that they already have the project for the reforestation,which will have first results in expectedly about 5 years...they missed the fact that by then this "walk of shame" will be damaged . Yep, we DO NOT like our government, that's why we leave the country...
Load More Replies...This seems false. No tree stumps visible and other structures there would have been removed first. A reverse image search seems to reveal that this is just a part of the structure that is still in place
From Reddit: "Not only that, the guy that won the grant also owned the forrest and cut it down himself. He also has a guest house built from EU money that fails to show the obligatory sign about funding. And he disappeared when reporters tried to find him to ask him about it all." https://english.atlatszo.hu/2023/03/28/the-forest-was-cut-to-the-ground-during-the-construction-of-the-eu-funded-treetop-walkway-in-nyirmartonfalva/
Load More Replies...I saw several photos of a EU representative checking it out. In those photos, new trees were already planted. People will simply have to wait a decade or so before they have a forest again. But one thing stood out in the photos - a row of trees was planted about 20 feet from the walkway. A bit too close for when the trees spread out?
How does this even happen? What people did not talk to each other that should have?
Typical theft of EU funds by FIDESZ related politicans/businessmen in Hungary. The ruling FIDEST runs our country as a mafia.

Asphalting In Bor
Not really surprised, some POS couldn't be bothered to put up a sign that there will be work done or some POS couldn't be bothered to move his car... Almost happened to me once, my dad was out of the country and our car was parked outside, the machines came to work on the parking lot and a neighbour called me (I was in my teens and not yet able to drive) to tell me he'll help me move the car. No sign or warning of the works prior... Edit to add, this happened also in Serbia
We were going to have snow removal the next day so the foreman told one of the guys to put "Emergency - Snow Removal - No Parking" signs in the snow banks along the street. He put them all facing the street instead of facing traffic. You cannot read a sign ahead if all you see is the edge instead of the face. Early the next morning the street was lined with cars. All the signs had to be turned to FACE traffic and snow removal was delayed for a day. The following summer the same guy was tasked to install No Parking signs on another street. Same thing. On sign faces my house which is on the opposite side of the street. lol!

As a professional driver, I see this pretty often. Good drivers pay attention to which lane is closed and get in line.

When the DOT is the moron, report them. This is the kind of stuff that causes wrecks.
Actually if one lane is closed, traffic will move along better IF all drivers stay in their lanes and increase distance between each other THEN at the point one lane closes, a car in the left lane goes then a car in the right then left ETC ...

Wrote The Click Bait Title, Boss
It makes me sick. I'm an engineer, I specialized about vehicles and internal combustion engines. Every time this atrocity pops up, somebody claims that it was somewhat of the "finest technology" or something along those lines, the "maximum of a sports car". It's not. It's gigantomania, megalomania and this most powerful engine in series production is just ... four middle-class performance engines of the early 2000's crammed into one machine. The cylinder count alone, while principally a feature of secondary importance, might already tell enough - up to 12, things are getting better. Needlessly better, as 12 indicates having a really large engine, or one with unreasonably small cylinders. But, given we're aiming at 1000 kW of power, skipping the question of how needed it is or not - a V12 full of hightech features would be the better solution, a piece of art as well as a piece of machinery. But, this ... it took the second model to include even one feature that is somewhat above standard tech, but with two turbochargers per row is like available for free anyway - sequential parallel turbocharging. Some 20+ years after it was first introduced in a streetlegal car (Porsche's 959) ... too many units, not enough technology. 3 Turbos in a V12 full of hightech features may still not exceed the cost of the gigantomaniac W16, but work nice and efficient - if cost isn't relevant anyway, nothing prevents this. Nothing else but customers and salespeople who aren't into technology all that much, but decide on what is done to max out a principle, and as usual, they land in the things even the most stupid peolpe have a conception of - countable cylinders, and displacement that is translatable into beer bottles or so. Meh. In regard to its engine, it's of course impressive to have that amount of power throwing you along the street, but ... still ... too large, too many cylinders, self-restriction to the maximum of useful, sense-making numbers of repetitive elements isn't a limit that makes the effort boring, quite the opposite. No direct injection. No adjustable timing on the exhaust. Why is that? Why does size, still and always, come before fine and well-adjusted tech?

Load More Replies...This one isn't a poor job, it's usually to show that it's been changed. We had to do this in housekeeping for the country club each time we changed the rolls. It takes all of a couple seconds to rip the paper off, but for whatever reason, they literally put not to take the paper off new rolls in the task description, lol.
Not A**hole But F**king With U
This is genuinely a thing all over here i swear, I went into a home bargains the other day and the back pain stuff was on the bottom shelf there, too. Same in B&M, and of course, as shown here, Boots. The UK hates people with back pain.
The US, too. Pharmacy I worked in did, and every store I go to for back pain has the same arrangement.

Oh, local CVS used to have the back pain meds on the bottom shelf. As I was checking out I told the guy they almost had to come pick me up from the floor. Next week they had moved them to the middle. Guess he took my threat seriously lol
My local CVS has all the heating pads and things for back pain on the lowest shelf on the ground as well..someone must love watching us struggle..I swear common sense is becoming quite uncommon.

Put On The Stop Button Boss!
It's just a plastic cover that spins. My kids used to spin the stupid things when we rode the bus, and I'd have to spin them back right side up again before we got off at our stop, lol.

I was ok with the list content for entertainment, but I did thumbs down most of the stuff because the list is currently labeled as "not my job", and most of the things in here are actually the person's job, they are just failing terribly, so it should be labeled as job fails or something. I'm ok with more lists like this, just with better labeling.
