28 of the Most Disastrous and Dumb Mistakes People Witnessed Their Coworkers Make

When you're a kid, you think that adults have everything figured out. As you age, you have the horrifying, dawning realization that nobody has anything figured out.

That realization is reinforced when you enter the workforce and are exposed to your fellow "adults" who range from simply 'faking it' like the rest of us to being dangerously and dysfunctionally problematic. Those adults that you idolized when you were young often failed to learn the fundamental lessons that you were supposed to learn in kindergarten.

For better or for worse, you're going to run into these people repeatedly throughout your adult life, and so, purely on a statistical basis, you bear witness to a lot of crazy things.

These Redditors shared the most insane and stupid mistakes they had the misfortune of bearing witness to at their workplaces. Given the context of some of these situations, it really makes you wonder how they managed to get these jobs in the first place.
