27 Pictures Proving Some Workers Couldn’t Care Less About Their Jobs
"Not my job" highlights... more like "not my problem."
Not everyone is lucky enough to have a career they enjoy or even one they care about. For many, it's merely a daily nine-hour binge that leads to the sacred period known as days off.
However, some people take this too literally and do only the bare minimum, and that's when they are in a good mood.
A subreddit called Not My Job archives the most amusing mistakes made on the job. If you think being asked to paint a wall or put up a streetlight isn't a big deal, you're about to be proven wrong.
Some people can mess up even the simplest tasks, and it is not because they are incompetent.
Nope, it is because they simply don't care. As a result, the "product" is far from polished, comprehensive, or functional.
This tremendous lack of care and attention is a wonderful combination of hilarious circumstances, which fuels the r/NotMyJob subreddit. We have selected some of the most amusing "not my job" examples, and we know you are going to love them.
Keep in mind that no one knows if the accidents were intentional, as they may have been caused by wandering minds, but it's still hilarious to see the job done to the point where it barely exceeds the minimum standard.

A picture of a dead animal painted over a road became popular on another subreddit, prompting the creation of the community. The road painters were shown to be too sluggish to do a decent job in this situation.
In the comments, someone said, "Not my job!" and it appears that others are intrigued by the concept. And that's how the subreddit got its name.
And the rest is history. Well, unfortunately, it is our reality.
Low wages and poor working conditions don't inspire people to do better. Or is it just their excuse?
