It sucks to be unprepared for a job interview, but what sucks more is when you walk in and realize immediately that you've worn the wrong thing and they realize you're unprepared from the get-go. In some cases, this didn't stop people form getting the job. In other cases, employers could tell right away that it wasn't gonna work out.. In the same vein, here are interview responses that made employers immediately say "nope."

I mean, sure, you could PROBABLY use two clothes irons to construct a sort of jury-rigged panini press, but before you enact your brilliant new plan, think to yourself if you actually have to ruin your irons. Chances are it won't be worth the sandwich, but it would be worth this list. In life you'll see many questionable fixes, and while they may seem awesome in theory, there's usually a reason to do things the right way.
These people screwed up big enough that they thought they'd be fired on the spot, but apparently life isn't as cutthroat as you'd think sometimes. Whether they had an understanding boss, did the right thing, or just straight up weren't caught, these employees lived to work another day.
That's a completely huge mistake that would probably put most people in a buttload of stress, but I guess if you can afford to lose a grand and not be bothered to get it back, then good for the pizza girl? If her job is anything like this pizza delivery woman's, then she deserves it.
Honestly, other than the whole "shaped like an animal" part, gummy bears don't seem like they'd have meat products in them, but that gelatin will get ya. Realizations like these can be pretty embarrassing for vegetarians and vegans, like this time a Subway employee had to explain to a shocked customer that mayo isn't vegan.
You're gonna be on this planet for a while, so rest assured your gonna see some shit. Luckily for us, the hammer of fate swings randomly, so we don't get hit with major disappointments on the daily. Maybe you have a bad week, but it's still statistically unlikely this level of disappointment will hit you hard.
We're all just trying to get through the day with no major hiccups. It doesn't even have to be a great day! Most of us will be satisfied with a completely normal day. That's because we know there are those ridiculously bad unfortunate moments that give us trouble looming around every corner. Seriously, no news is good news.
The best part about the fact that this guy got matching "neutered" tattoos with his dog, is that he didn't mean to. A solid case study in the importance of understanding what a tattoo means, before you decide to go through with it. That being said, it made for one hilarious, yet wholesome fail.
Musician Jason Isbell took to twitter to ask people about the most devastating thing they've ever spilled in their car. When you think about it, a car is one of the most stressful places to spill something, and should be chalked up as one of life's more disappointing moments. Everything in a car is usually covered in fabric, you're forced to sit in it, and if it's something that smells, good luck sitting in a tin can filled with old burger or whatever.
We all just want to get through a regular, uneventful day, but sometimes life makes things complicated. Sometimes even small things, like dropping a pan of kebabs, can be the most defeating feeling you've had in months. Sometimes it's something bigger, like accidentally overloading a semi-truck and destroying it. These things are all disappointing, but at least they don't happen to you every day,
If you think you're having a bad day, there's still a pretty good chance you didn't lose a speed boat on the freeway. Misfortune gets the best of people all the time. Seeing it happen can put things in perspective, it can be somewhat therapeutic, or it can be simply intriguing to see all the things that can go wrong.
That's kind of what uncles are for, right? When this guy wasn't paying attention to what his own kid was watching, and got a warning from the uncle, he said "just do it" and the rest is history. It's just a shame that the kids got the worst end of the stick here. Here's a link to Scientifically Accurate Barney by the way.
Life is big and full of unforseen circumstances, so you're bound to see some unfortunate moments that could've gone better. Whether it's a boat getting grounded, someone dropping their phone from a rollercoaster, or just a bullfrog stealing a cat's dinner, life will serve up every one of us some hard times. Is it cathartic and somewhat entertaining to see what other people have to go through? Kinda, yeah.
If you think your day isn't going great, then it may be a good time to remind yourself that it could be worse. Chances are, you didn't lose a boat on the freeway today, or get hit with a full can of paint. Whether you find it cathartic or just funny, here are some times things just didn't go right. For more, here are someimpressive moments of misfortune and failure.
Big and small moments both have the capacity to make us feel bad. Sometimes something as small as dropping your spaghetti can have a worse impact on your general wellbeing than dropping a pallet of spaghetti sauce at work. Here are some times misfortune struck people's lives.
