Hey, if someone tells you to install a toilet seat lid, it's not like it's your job to install the right sized one, and it's totally not your job to check and see if it's upside down or not. Here are some wonderfully unprofessional "not my job" moments from the world of the just lazy enough.

Oh boy, we're back at it again with a fresh revenge of the week. This classic tale of revenge centers on an employee spearheading a revolution against a shady, dishonest manager. Manager should've just told the truth, and maybe all of this could've been avoided.
This boss shouldn't have lied to their employee about giving them a raise. Seriously, just be straightforward and honest, people. But alas, that would seem to be too much to ask from some folks. So, queue up the pro revenge, and the employee going on to befriend the owner of the company who was responsible for 90% of the company's income. Now that's how you solve the problem by going right to the top.
This fun AskReddit thread takes a look at various workers that discovered shortcuts in their various lines of work to accomplish jobs the easiest ways possible. It's remarkable what kinds of paths can be opened up by someone motivated by the burning desire to not have to work too hard.
This job applicant decided to call out a company's interview process after being rejected from getting the position. It would seem given the context here that the honest and critical review was completely reasonable. Someone in the comments section suggested that this company sounded like a potential MLM/pyramid scheme. If that were the case, then bullet dodged!
Everyone has wondered if their life would be more peaceful if they worked in an animal shelter, or got to play video games all day. As it turns out, a job is still a job, and there's a reason people don't do it for free. For more insight into other people's jobs, here are bad stock photos of people's jobs getting roasted, as well as stories of the worst things people's coworker's did without being fired.
Some pretentious Twitter user thought they'd go ahead and issue a complaint about what looks like a completely acceptable Family Guy scene. So, an actual animator stepped in and shed some light on the realities of the industry. At one point, the animator points out that they're actually making someone else's art, when it comes to the animations that people see.
Time zones can be a bastard especially when the person you'r dealing with has no concept of empathy. And when the tables were turned, she couldn't even manage to skip happy hour and had to give up. Here's another entitled coworker who demanded a party and took all the leftovers. You can't help but be fascinated by the antics of an entitled Karen, like this one who tried and failed to scam a restaurant.
We're always impressed by the work of the lazy and negligent. It gives us impressively unprofessional "not my job" moments, ranging from telephone poles in the middle of roads to roadkill-shaped gaps traffic lines. Blessed be the sweet hot laziness that leads to these wonderfully unprofessional "not my job" moments.
Good for this guy for looking out for his coworkers. Sounds like they got screwed over on some well deserved pay, so the heroic foreman of the story ends up besting a lawyer, and getting everyone properly paid out. Not only that, but it sounds like the whole process left such a positive impact that it changed how the company ran business for going forwards.
