'Red hot chilly paper': 30+ Mistakes from people who had just one job, and still couldn't do it correctly

From tiny misprints to stairs that lead nowhere, these folks all failed at their jobs for one day. 

No one is perfect, since we're all human. Even if you do the same job day in and day out, sometimes you'll make a few mistakes. 

I'm a big fan of the "frog cake" mishap (see #10 for details). Perhaps the usual cake artist was out that day, and maybe an untrained employee just took a swing at it. It's humble, it's modest, it's almost abstract! It's certainly an unforgettable cake, just not in the way the customer was intending. 

As for the employee who painted yellow lines over a car in photo #29, you're so bold for that. No one has ever said "that's not my job" more often than street painters seem to. They'll paint over rocks, pipes, dirt, and clearly, a full car! 

Scroll down to check out all of these hilarious mishaps. After that, read all about this controlling boss who forbid her employee from contacting any higher-ups in the company---no exceptions.
