construction

Some OSHA regulations seem sort of strict and ridiculous, but some really bad safety fails make you concede the point that some rules are there for a reason. It's non an enviable situation to be in to have a boss who wants you to do some sketchy-ass moves just so you can replace a light bulb, but we've been there.

From what we know about relationships, this would be more acceptable on the third day. Anyway, an equipment failure led to this construction worker having a very intimate first day with his new boss. For a more heroic construction story, here's one about an incompetent owner who mistakenly fired a special contractor and then came crawling back.

Stuff lie this makes us think we'd be pretty good at designing signs and clothes. Maybe it's harder to do well without ending up with stupid design failure? The fact remains, the world is completely filled up with really not good signs and designs, and it seems like a whole lotta people out there aren't doing their job.

It's bold moves like these that convince people why women live longer than men. A shout-out to all the bosses who have told us "just do it it'll be fine" or "we've always done it like that" and made us climb backwards up a ladder balancing on piles of oily rags. Anyway here's safety failures that would give OSHA nightmares.

If you're into stupidly redundant construction decisions,  shirts that accidentally say "anus," or signs for businesses that also accidentally say "anus" than you've come to the right place. Let's be real, some design can use some extra thought, and some of it, like these magazine layout fails, are freakin awesome.

Don't let the world fool you, almost everyone is doing a bad job all the time. Whether you edit news and magazine layouts or have ever designed stuff that needed extra thought, there are a monstrous amount of failures performed by everyone every day. Sure, it might not be your fault. Sometimes life just hits you with some misfortune. Anyway, here are some from folks who had one goddamn job.

Construction worker Jason Haney is out here restoring our faith in humanity. He acted on an idea to cheer up hospitalized children by creating an 8-foot-tall cutout of Where's Waldo, and hiding it on site everyday for the kids in the Memorial Children's Hospital in South Bend, Indiana. It's people like this that make us think there might be a little hope left in the world after all. 

Well, play stupid games, get stupid prizes. We're fans of any revenge story where the powers that be get theirs just for thinking they could swing their weight around. Check out this story for a sales dude getting back at his company.

Does it make you go crazy when something is just a little bit o ff? Well then .prepare to feel awful while looking at this big bunch of poorly measured architecture and improperly consumed food. If you want more uncomfortable images to neurotically scowl at, then check these out.

Gotta risk it for the biscuit. Well, you don't necessarily HAVE to risk it. Sometimes putting on a safety harness would take an extra 5 minutes and that doesn't seem worth it. Anyway, here are some non-OSHA approved dudes in precariously hazardous situations. And here's some more safety fails if you're interested.

What happens when people don't review their work? Misplaced toilets, stairs to nowhere and advertisements that look like living nightmares. Some of this stuff was planned, but still turned out to be crap anyway! And boy are we glad it happens.

The truth is, this stuff is child's play. Here's some darker and dirtier design fails to really get your motor running.

Gotta love these stories. You get to enjoy the drama without having to have actually "witnessed the event." It's all fun and games until you compromise the safety of everyone around you. Not surprisingly, commenters weighed in with their own feats of room-clearing strength. If your in it for hilarious fart-themed stories, try this bombshell moment on for size.
