As someone in purchasing, it is always our fault. Even if the engineer gives us the wrong specs, it’s on purchasing. Sigh...
Butane9000
Work intelligently should've had him moving that cube with a Jack or dolly
CroissantMagnet
Fucking asshole didn't even clean up his mess
Rijtjeshuis
But carving one of those blocks down id gonna tale a while.
YourNeighborhoodLesbian
I'm more of a fan of the KISS method. KEEP IT SIMPLE STUPID
cecooo
So much wasted material
garfunkle4U
Put the cubes on a fucking dolly. Jesus, if you're a cube manufacturer you should have the equipment to transport them
MyCommentsUsuallyHaveTypos
So cutting corners is a good thing?
knowmeandsayhello
*intelligently*
thechocmaster
Better yet, don’t wear a suit and tie for manual labor
juffowup00
Farao was not pleases by this slave's "intelligence"
heghmoh
when they get to the pyramid, someone is going to be pissed.
BlkDragon96
I had this visual basic textbook.
Kabalannen
How about a board with wheels under the cubes?
benevenstanciano
Boy is that guy gonna be in shit when he finds out they need cubes over there.
chalkydude
DancesWithHippos
Yeah. Those cube people were hired by the sphere person to make him look good.
itsppearsyoucanindeed
Ah yes, the ancestor Trump
JennyIronTeeth
Work hard and smart
fudgycurmudgeon
“That’s how I roll”
RElGNMAN
I agree they all should have asked for spherical thing, but in life we are not given choices, like everyone would have us to believe.
StainlessEel
Kalavier
Over analyzing a detail and shoving in aspects that aren't at all implied or related.
BlueDragonGod
How's he gunna build a wall with a ball?
85HH
Depends on the surface.
madeejit
Where's my fuckin cube?
Bigmclargehugegr8
I'd be pissed if I ordered cubes and got a sphere
Kalavier
Sure, but that was not really the point of the picture. It's been over analyzed.
obie5778
But I ordered 1000 bricks for my pyramid, and I got 999 and one sphere.
AwesomeTeddybear
Work intelligent sounds stupid. Work smart would fit better imo
DraxCleveland
Context is everything, sometimes the "dumber" way to do it is more efficient, you'll spend more time designing when the job could be done.
bilateralunsymmetry
That's because it's supposed to be intelligently
MeisterDisaster
Work brain
ClayBones548
Use brain for smartmaking.
mikenco
Everything is better in context. I'd like to see you build a wall with the spheres.
ihavethelowground
Technically the atoms that make up the material are spherical
Beanman97
Once you get to the destination just carve it back into a square
thisiswhyicanthaveanythingnice
That’s how they built the pyramids ya know.
CarlottaVonSprockett
A square that’s much smaller than all the other blocks going into your wall. A mini block!
icyanddicey
You know the image of Wojak sitting on his own brain? Imagine I posted it.
INeverReadTheTOS
I hate that 'work intelligent' picture so much. "If your work is hard... just cut corners!"
anglafro365
And who gets to clean up his mess?
jakdsjfklfds
Lazy vs. Efficient
ConradPerson
Customer is like, I ordered cubes. Why dis you send this sphere?
goodisunpopular
Also leaves out the ball has an increased chance of rolling away from your control.
LetumComplexo
I mean, that is how rich people get rich.
CroissantMagnet
Get a dolly, premade. 'Right tool for the job'
Arcania85
If he made a cylinder it would still roll but takes less material to remove....
DontLookAtMeInThatToneOfVoicee
If you hard, then you hard
HeadJamistan
The grammar pisses me off. It's work intelligently.
pritolus
Right?? Fucking up their own point in more than one way
StapMeVittles
I liked this extension version
Lynith
As a manager of Engineers. Yes. Most "Corners" aren't missed. Provided you remember Safety and Reliability aren't "Corners."
magicgirl
Should be 'intelligently' anyway. And what if you roll it there and want to build a wall?
magicgirl
There's not enough context to know if they are working intelligently/being intelligent. I'll just stay stupid
dontstoretheketchupupsidedown
I don't understand shouldn't it still be an adverb? Isn't work hard technically incorrect too? If being super nitpicky
pinhero
Give a lazy person a job to do and you’ll find the easiest way to get the job done.
nicolaisheen
Or get it extremely late if he/she is getting paid by the hour
Kenkenny82
The easiest way to get a job done is to pay someone else, from a poor country, under the minimum wage, to do it for you.
NotAnIroningBoard
Or you won't get the job done at all? You might also get the job done REALLY badly.
ImmaCatImmaSexyCat
Found the programmer.
Kalavier
I hate that it's used to bash the dude with the sphere. If your goal is simply to move the object to other side, he's working smarter.
BishlamekGurpgork
He's moving less object, though. Because he cut corners. Literally. And he still did more work than he needed to do.
ThatWeirdishGuy
Unless moving the object to the other side also includes all the bits he left behind..
gablestout
But he didn't move the object. He moved 52% of it. A sphere with the same diameter as the side of a cube has 52.3% of the cube's volume
huerrbuzz
Yes that is the point it's not about the literal object.
Kalavier
Too bad everybody takes it extremely literally.
BishlamekGurpgork
This image is just badly crafted, really. A guy literally cutting corners to deliver less product more easily is not what you want as the>
BishlamekGurpgork
>example for working smarter.
huerrbuzz
Once again it is not meant about delivering actual cubes. It's about thinking outside the box.
BishlamekGurpgork
I'm not arguing that it's intent is about cutting corners. I'm arguing that it's bad at illustrating what it intends to illustrate.
MaadMaanMaatt
Literally cut the corners off
whyisthisusernametaken
DrDadJokes
all of it
Zreen
In Bsg the papers all had cut corners too
MemesAndCatsGalore
Much to the regret of the crew. It looked cool but then they had to cut every single book and piece of paper on set for every episode.
Zreen
So in a weird turn of events, cutting corners was less efficient
coltonmk
Not even smart too. Would've been quicker, easier and less waste to make a cilinder.
HavelTh3Rock
Even less waste to make an octagonal prism.
Imstruttinmyasslikeidontcare
RevenantBacon
That's one I haven't seen before.
coltonmk
Haha ok then.
Markamanic
Just roll the fucking cube instead of wasting time carving that shit.

alantosai
Operative word, "eventually."
bluemagister
Yeah but it's quicker and easier for the guy drawing the picture to draw a circle. Gotta think outside the cube.
SonOfScubaSam
Cylinder! And for the next comment, waste! There. It's done.
Greyganado
I'm gonna downvote this with multiple accounts so the comment is underneath the one with waste written wrongly.
omuaomua
i was asking myself, how can one write waste wrongly.... and then i saw it...
SaganIsMyLordAndSavior
But not as efficient. You can't turn very daily with a cylinder. BUT-this is also implying the rolling isn't some Sisyphus level punishment.
srabadorad
You probably wouldn’t need to turn much in that environment. Hell, it’d probably help if it just went in a straight line.
dschuma
One might say, a sisyphean task
BlueCanaryInTheOutletByTheLightSwitch
"Intelligent"? Why cut it into a sphere when it would be faster and easier to make it into a cylinder, which would roll just as easily?
greentights
Or.... Put it on a dolly
NeonCatt
you don't even need to cut a perfect cylinder
SumptuousMeat
But... The order was for cubes. Why you trying to change it again? (I'm a machinist, and changing the order specs is a big no-no)
ticktockbent
or just put the cube on a cart?
ohnoofcourseyourright
Or just don't even push it.
allthenamesaregone
Came here to post this, so as per Imgur law, here is your +1.
LiarLiarPantsUntier
I just came.
ImGur8
Maybe a cylinder would be too low so he wouldn't be able to push in a comfortable angle? Back pressure from pushing a lower cylinder
zorben
It would be the same height as the sphere
ImGur8
Ah I got it lol as someone who has pushed cylinders (carpet rolls, rolls of sheet metal) cylinders are far harder to control and steer
IMustGrowUpReally
Corners better?
LinkHouseMan
For storage, yes
googooberry
Or use one of the many techniques theorized by scientists and historians on how ancient Egyptians moved the blocks for the pyramids.
goodisunpopular
But slavery is illegal now.
Elcarsh
Good thing the pyramids weren't built by slaves.
Grimmrog
good thing, the great pyramids weren't build with stone blocks either.
nullbr
Aliens?
MantisTobogganPilotMD
working class
xxtoxii
Bcs it is easier to roll a rock ball then it would be a cylinder
atcggcta
Only if he has to turn at some point
LeoKeidran
To explain why you're being downvoted - a cylinder has a round side that you can roll it on, like a barrel.
thetonestarr
However, if it begins turning the wrong way (which WILL eventually happen), a cylinder is much harder to turn.
LeoKeidran
I would argue you could pivot it to realign the curved side to the direction in question, but you are right that it would happen eventually
thetonestarr
It's definitely doable and I am by no means arguing that shaving it to a sphere is a better idea... just that it is indeed the easiest way.
