Today, I was trying to listen to a phone message I'd received. I was excited because I'd been waiting for the coaches to call me back for tryouts for a week now. Trying to figure out how to listen to it, I ended up deleting it. FML

Today, the phone kept ringing so I picked it up and answered. When there was no response, it took a minute to realize that I was still in bed and talking to my hand. FML

Today, while waiting for my train, I was listening to a voicemail message on my phone. Out of nowhere, a stranger came up to me from behind and screamed "DELETE!" into my ear. His voice command deleted my message. FML

Today, I missed multiple calls from the company I applied to. That was the supervisor calling, wanting to hire me. I then remembered my idiotic voicemail I made months ago where I pretended to answer and say stupid stuff for 5 minutes. I don't think I'm going to get the job. FML

Foiled plan
Today, I had a video call with a couple of old friends, but the conversation sort of got boring, so I started mouthing words so they'd think the connection was bad and end the awkwardness. Then, as soon as they hung up the call, I realized I'd left my music on in the background the whole time. FML

Today, my boss rang me for the 5th time on my day off. Frustrated I pushed 'ignore' and yelled a string of obscenities at my phone. Turns out I pushed 'talk'. FML

Today, I was talking to a co-worker about birth control. Ten minutes later, I went to my sent e-mails to copy and reuse an old e-mail and realized I had sent "I tried calling you but your birth control is not working" to a student. It was supposed to say "voicemail". FML

Today, I pretended to be on the phone to avoid small talk with someone from my building. I spoke loudly into the phone while walking by them. My phone rang in the middle of my fake conversation. FML

I feel like you're one of those people who absentmindedly talk to their furniture and appliances.

This is easy to do. As pilots, we have an automatic weather update on a special frequency, and because I was overloaded I asked the recording to repeat something.. Lol...

I tried prank calling my friend with one of my friends one night and I thought he answered. Then his voice mail said "just kidding" so we were giggling like idiots for no apparent reason. Lol

I do that too, but at least MY furniture and appliances talk back... The microwave has some good recipe ideas.... Edit, this is meant for the 3rd #4 (wtf is up with that anyhow?)

So have I. Either that or I get all pissed off and yell at the "to delete this message, press 1" lady and get weird looks from everyone around me. Damn AT&T

That was definitely supposed to be a response to 4...
