The “not my job” mentality is surely annoying when you have to work with people who like to skate by, but when it’s someone else’s problem, it can be kind of funny.
I’m not saying every employee should always go above and beyond for their company, but I think it’s fair to assume they can show up and do the bare minimum.
Maybe they’re just having one of those days, but these workers sure showed up with a “not my job” mentality, and it’s causing their coworkers to share these pics online in the Not My Job subreddit this month.
