Today, my best friend jokingly blocked my number until I apply for a job. She is also supposed to be picking me up from the airport, so now I have no way to contact her to tell her what time. FML

Thanks mom

Today, I checked my inbox and realized I got an email from a potential employer, saying they were having trouble getting a hold of me by phone. They called while my mom was using my phone to look up directions to a place, and she answered, kindly hanging up when they asked for me. FML

Today, I have been waiting for a call from a job I applied for. I soon got a text from my current boss, who doesn't know I'm job hunting, letting me know that the recruiter was trying to reach me. Turns out my number on my resumé was wrong. FML

Today, my best friend was fired from the place we both work at because she's a bad employee. After they fired her she said, "If I go, I'm taking my best friend with me." So they fired me too. I actually liked that job. FML

Jealous much?

Today, I can no longer talk to my best friend thanks to his insecure, overbearing girlfriend of 3 months. We never talk about anything that crosses boundaries, and it's actually him who initiates the conversations. She’s forced him to block my number and social media accounts. FML

You can't borrow a phone anywhere at an airport?

You guys are probably on some kind of social media. Shoot her a message on FB or Instagram (or whatever the two of you are into).

How is blocking a friend's phone number until they apply for a job a joke? That doesn't make sense to me. Just borrow a phone if you can, or if there's still pay phones there, use one of those.

Maybe an inside joke? I mean, me and my friends have the word "Wednesday" as an inside joke, so...

Hey, try getting a job for the airport! Then make some money for a new phone and call your best friend to pick you up after you quit! No, but seriously, there should be public phones at the airport you can use, at least at the ones I've been to.

People have become too reliant on phones and similar technology anyway. Just talk to her face to face. Walk however far it is from the airport to her place, have a REAL conversation in which you ask her to pick you up, and then walk back. Problem solved!

Because walking however far on foot for what probably takes over an hour by car is the best solution. Idiot.

#22, there's no reason to insult Trip for what was obviously a joke. If you can't take gentle teasing and stupid solutions, you're on the wrong comedy website. Visit actual advice columns for that.

WALK from the airport??? Do you usually walk 20 to 30 miles on a highway with luggages?

that's not very nice of her I suggest calling another friend to pick you up and then, jokingly, make her feel guilty for not being there when you needed her that or borrowing a phone from someone to call her
