Employees Who Executed Tasks a Little Bit Too Literally While Putting in the Least Amount of Effort

Having to go to a job you hate every single day is the worst thing anyone could ever experience, especially when you work long shifts or full-time. You try your hardest to make time go as fast as possible, but the more you try, the slower it seems to go.

It drains your energy, and even the simplest tasks turn into painfully boring experiences. However, when you depend on a job for your livelihood, you can't risk doing something that could get you fired, so you find ways to disturb the peace without going too far.

You can notice instances of unsatisfied employees in every aspect of life. All the things you see in a public place that are out of place or executed poorly probably originate from an unsatisfied employee expressing themselves in the best way they can.

When someone hates their job but also takes things way too literally, you end up with some never-before-seen, hilarious results. The employees in the pictures below decided to take things way too literally and executed the instructions exactly as they were asked (I don't think you can get fired for that; they should have been more precise).

1. "My note on the cheese fries said: extra cheese on the side"

Reddit

2. "Made the engraving, boss."

Whoever made this is either a smartass or someone who doesn't speak English.

3. "Just put Monday"

As long as it's before Monday, it's good to go. It doesn't matter which Monday.

4. You have successfully failed

They were just testing, I guess.

5. "Entered his name, boss"

Reddit

6. "You’re supposed to unwrap the paper first"

Reddit

7. He did not let him know, I guess.

Read the whole thing to spot the mistake.

Reddit

8. "My BF ordered an egg and cheese bagel..."

This is what zero motivation looks like.

Reddit

9. "I'm not sure anything has been cared about less than this pizza."

Absolute chaos in one picture.

Reddit

10. "Pretty sure that’s supposed to be on a label, not the dessert"

Reddit

11. "Spotted in Target. Next level fashion."

"I am 100% positive that a customer did this; probably the only one left of its size, tried it on, didn't like it, and 'put it back.'"---WhiskerBiscuitGoodsReddit

12. "I sorted that legal stuff, boss"

Just normal legal stuff, bro.

Reddit

13. "Put the price tags on, boss."

They saw the opportunity and took it.

Reddit

14. "Technically in the right place"

It probably took more effort to do this than it usually takes to rip off the plastic and place it properly.

Reddit

15. "When they said 'chocolate chip muffin,' I didn't take them literally... but I should have"

Reddit

These people are so done with their jobs, and you can tell that from the amount of effort and care they put into the tasks they do. They are practically doing what they were told; they can't really get into trouble because of that, but I bet they enjoy people's reactions to their masterpieces.
