Some tasks are more daunting than others, and the bigger the task, the more room for error. Occasionally though, it is the simplest and most straightforward of tasks that end poorly. It's okay to make mistakes, we all do it, but sometimes the mistake is so silly and unavoidable that whoever made it should have thrown in the towel long ago. To what can we attribute these simple yet obvious screw-ups to? Exhaustion? Mind-numbing repetition? Just plain stupidity? Perhaps just the malfunction of an overworked factory machine. Even machines aren't always perfect.

Whatever it may be, it does create something for us to laugh at.
