Today, I got a call from a potential employer. Unfortunately, I couldn't understand the man due to his incoherent mumbling. I had to decline the job after asking him to repeat everything he said, over and over again. I still don't know exactly which job I declined. FML

It's happened to me before as well. If it was quality work, they really should have employees with better communication skills.

Apparently so. OP must get a lot of job offers to turn one down so quickly instead of looking into it more. Not really a FML if you can easily let go of a job when others can't even find one. But hey you go OP!

Sorry you had this problem OP! Next time you find yourself in that situation, ask to talk to a different person.

If they're going to hire people like that, you probably don't want the job anyway...

I can't believe you didn't ask to come in because you had a bad connection or something.

I don't think OP would've heard WHERE they should go, had they accepted the job.
