19 People Who Are Just Having The Worst Day Imaginable At Work
Sometimes, you just have to take all the time-outs you can from work.
Some workdays go sideways in a way that is impossible to laugh off in the moment. A ripped pair of pants, a ruined product, or one painfully bad mistake can turn an ordinary shift into a story people remember for years.
That is exactly what happens in this roundup, where workers, customers, and unlucky bystanders all end up dealing with one awful moment after another. Some of these disasters are embarrassing, some are expensive, and some are just plain hard to look at. Read on.

These people were really having the worst days possible, and hopefully, they took that two-hour lunch because, by the looks of it, they'll be needing it. The worst part is it's not even always their fault.
We can only offer them our empathy and our hopes that their next days at work will be better. If only we could hug them and tell them that everything is going to be okay, though.
