Today, I got a phone call from a number I didn't recognize. It was a man with a speech impediment, and I began imitating him. He was the manager of a store I applied at. He wanted to arrange an interview. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I got a phone call for a interview at Target at 4:30 pm. I got super excited, so I got dressed up and headed over there. I told the manager that I was there for my interview. He didn't know what I was talking about. My friends had prank called me. FML
Today, I was to have an important phone interview for a job. I got a call and everything went perfectly, and they said I was hired. Later, I found out that one of my "friends" had gotten one of his buddies to prank call me and make sure the line was engaged when the real interviewer called. FML
Today, I had a job interview. I have a speech impediment and as much as I tried to keep it under control, it came out during the interview. I could tell the interviewers were trying to hold in their laughter. They ended the interview after 5 agonizing minutes, saying they’ll contact me. I left in tears. FML
Today, I had to call a customer. I usually try to avoid calling customers because I have a very prominent speech impediment. Well, it turns out the customer I called also has a speech impediment and thought I was mocking her. She hung up on me and filed a formal complaint with my company. 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
Today, I got a call about a job interview, saying I was hired. I was ecstatic, until they called me back and said they'd called the wrong applicant. They called again later, saying there'd been a mistake and I really was hired. When I went in to confirm it, they said they'd never heard of me. FML
Today, after being unemployed for over four months, I got a call from a company I've wanted to work for for over 2 years. After they were about to set up an interview, they called me by a different name. After correcting them, they hung up on me. Turns out they had the wrong number. FML
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
Today, the company offering the job position that I've been applying for called me up. I wasn't there to answer so they got redirected to my voice mail in which I'm acting like a drunk David Hasselhoff chewing on a cheeseburger. They called me 5 times. FML
Today, I got through to the phone interview stage for a great job. When the phone rang, I answered and suddenly, spontaneously, burped really loudly. The interviewer hung up. FML

Been said 100 times but YDI you douchebag. Potential new boss or not, you don't need to be a douchebag to people. Hope you learned a lesson on how to be a better person, but I doubt it.

YDI for being a jerk, definitely. I'm just glad they got to see your true colours before they hired you.

#166, don't be a dick. There's a difference between accepting it and talking about it, and having some random prick on the other end of the phone who doesn't know who you are imitating you and making fun of you for it. OP - What the hell?! Why would you imitate him in the first place?? What kind of asshole are you? I certainly hope you didn't get the job. God knows you don't deserve it. You do, however, deserve all the negative feedback you're getting here.

Way to be a completely horrible person. Maybe one day something will happen to you that you can't control, and we'll see what happens when you get mocked for it. This post wasn't even funny - it was just plain disrespectful.

You deserve it for disrespecting someone that has a more successful life than you do, and not accepting the way they are. What's wrong with you?

There are some people here who said this person is not an asshole and why is a person with a speech impediment calling? WTF.. So now someone with a speech impediment can't be a manager?? Since when? having that doesn't make you incapable of doing things ..obviously the manager is more successful than this sack of shit applying for the job. You are just as bad as the one making fun if you think that its ok! OP is a ******* douche bag and a dumbass for making fun for no reason.
