A warning was posted on the freezer, according to the court filing.
“THIS FREEZER IS BEEPING AS IT IS UNDER REPAIR. PLEASE DO NOT MOVE OR UNPLUG IT. NO CLEANING REQUIRED IN THIS AREA. YOU CAN PRESS THE ALARM/TEST MUTE BUTTON FOR 5-10 SECONDS IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO MUTE THE SOUND,” the warning read, according to the suit

"Ohhh Mi no speaka ingles okey"

That long ass warning on the freezer must of looked like hieroglyphics to poor janitor man

Nah but for real accidents happen just sucks its such a costly one for the company he works for..not for him/her cause the janitor not even being sued. Owner must be mad as hell

Nah nothing crazy

But last year one of my coworkers rebooted EVERY server our company has during bank business hours trying to test some shyt out


Fuccked up so much stuff, Would’ve been fired that day if our manager didn’t go to bat for him.

When you have the powers to deploy your code into production and you are basically the QA…yea, the odd mistake happens. But you gotta be good enough to see it before anyone else does and fix it.

One time I deleted some shyt and has to get an engineer to spend hours fixing my blunder. One thing is I didn’t make that mistake again.

Aside from that I have never made huge mistakes because in extra careful and always double and triple checking.

I put the automatic fryer at a higher degrees than normal to make work quicker, and I ended up burning all the French fries in stock during lunch rush hour

BIG mistake

Can't blame the janitor really if it was that easy.

When I used to work in a warehouse: moving a cart of about ~$200k-worth of small, expensive coated hydraulic pumps. Office was quiet af.
Looked over to take a glance at something and tagged the corner of some pallet.
Cart I was pushing comes to a halt and everything goes flying off of it, loud clangs everywhere.
Of course this happened right in front of the company's president.

As a software engineer: probably pushing the use of a library nobody likes to use.

First day at a Cinema, closing shift.

Girl tells me to press a switch. Turns out it was the freezer containing all of the Ice Cream.

Management comes back and sees it all defrosted, makes it worse he was very too

Story in OP is crazy.

Me personally, I work in finance, doing payroll and stuff. Basically I accidentally messed up a formula in an excel file and fukked a couple people's tax deductions up.

This Mexican chick at my old warehouse job was driving a forklift, she raised the forks too high and hit the sprinkler. Flooded the cooler and destroyed tons of food.

It was her first day on the job

 

[Formerly Black Trash]

Didn't respond to a ceo fast enough
fukked up some emails(but other ppl did it before me and I researched and defined the way to fix it)

when i was 18 working at a manufacturing plant... i was a crane operator...with a controller.... i dropped a 40,000 pound coil /roll of steel sheeting in a dumpster


also i dropped the crane all the way to the floor

also one of the 40,000 rolls of steel almost crushed me when i was placing it somewhere

...
needless to say i didn't have any training or qualifications for that job
