Everyone makes mistakes — it’s part of being human. But when professionals mess up something simple, it’s impossible not to notice. From Google giving the wrong answer to an easy question, to a highway line painted wildly off track, to an air conditioner installed completely wrong — these fails are pure comedy gold.
The r/OneJob Reddit community has made it its mission to collect the funniest and most unbelievable examples of people having one job… and still messing it up. Scroll down to see some of the best (and worst) fails ever caught on camera.
