'Dishwasher detergent that looks like juice': 30 major and unintentional design flaws

Sometimes you take a look at a product in a store and immediately wonder what these people were thinking when they were designing this. You're thinking about how silly it looks, how useless it seems, and how many people signed off on this without using their evidently hollow brains. These flaws were compiled from the top posts in the r/BadDesigns subreddit from this past month. Some of these entries include store products, job advertisements, warning signs, and even architectural flaws. Regardless, all of these deserve a standing ovation for being one big swing and a miss after another. Let these flaws also serve as a healthy reminder to read the fine print before purchasing anything. Otherwise, you might be stuck with a useless product. Or even worse, you might end up with a drink that's not an actual drink… it's detergent. Keep scrolling below for the full list. When you're done, here is a list of employees who quit their job on the spot.
