Hilarious Work Fails

Have you ever done something so embarrassing at work that you remember it every time you shut your eyes? We feel your pain. And so does the internet.

Hilarious Work Fail

Sometimes, work sucks because of things out of your control. But sometimes it sucks because it’s your fault. Maybe it was that email you errantly sent to the entire company or the off-putting way you talked to your boss at lunch or how you completely screwed up what you were supposed to do.

Whatever it was, we’ve all had those days. When it happens, it’s best to find some examples of people who have made similar mistakes — or even far worse. Maybe these failures on the job will help you cope with that embarrassing thing that happened to you at work

Or maybe they’ll just make you laugh.
