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.

Feels good when someone's crappy behavior is rewarded with a fitting punishment. In this case, two rude dudes who overstepped their bounds got a talking to and left with the massive bill they created. Sometimes employees get their own petty revenge on terrible customers, but this one came down from their own boss.

I guess if packing peanuts are a thing, then packing popcorn isn't too far off. Modern problems require modern solutions, and these folks improvised like the best of em. Some better than others. It's gonna be harder to dunk when those trees keep growing...

Ever had a boss that wanted to do something you knew was stupid, like standing on a ladder supported by a second ladder, supported by something on wheels?

These worksites are just a little hazardous.

Don't let OSHA find out. Or the union. They'll have a kitten if they saw these places. So much for employee welfare. Some of these solutions to get to hard to reach spots to work are pretty clever. Most are just massive safety hazards waiting for a lawsuit to happen. But sometimes people have a one track mind, and just need to get done doing whatever they need to do, caution and common sense be damned. This guy knows all about when common sense goes out the window.
