Today, I arrived at the salon to get my hair done for prom. The lady at the front desk insisted I didn't have an appointment. After looking back on my recent calls, it turned out I called the wrong number and whatever asshole was on the other line played along. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, in a big meeting, my secretary calls me saying that I have an important call waiting. I put the call through. It was my beautician, confirming my appointment to get rid of an ingrown hair. I hurriedly confirm and hang up to see everyone in the room giggling. The speaker phone was on. FML
Today, I went to get a haircut. Who shows up not 5 minutes later to also get a haircut? My obnoxious, bully of a boss. She started chatting with me across the salon the entire time. There was no way to get out of the conversation. FML
Today, I answered a call I thought was from my friend and opened with, “What do you want, fuck face?” It was actually my dentist confirming my appointment. There was a long pause before she politely repeated my name to ensure they had the right patient. FML
Today, I went to my hair dresser to get my haircut. When she asked me what I wanted, I told her "the usual". She confused me with another customer and gave me a mullet. FML
Today, I went to a salon. As soon as I walked in, someone ran to me and inspected my hair and said, "We can fix this." I was there to get my daughter's hair done. FML
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 went to the doctor's office for an appointment. After waiting for ages, I asked the receptionist what the delay was. Apparently, I had no standing appointment today. This is coming from the same receptionist who checked me in nearly two hours ago. 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 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 took a call. Wrong number. A few seconds later, they called back and I told her that she had the wrong number. She said she just hit redial and didn't understand how she got me again. I tried to explain how redial works. She called me a moron and hung up. Then my phone rang again. FML

Be a good time to book an appointment with them now. If you explain to them what happened and that it's for your prom they might make room for you!

Yea OP, I saw this somewhere but you should call him and say how you always screw up and never do anything right, then cry for a minute then play a really loud gunshot sound so it seems like you killed yourself bec

On the one hand, that asshole is incredibly spontaneous and creative to have just gone with it. On the other hand, that leaves you in a really crappy spot!

Call back that c**t

Cart? Clot? Chat? Cost? What is it?! I can't take the suspense.

Something related to a black person

I'm not sure what comment #24 used to say, but I like to imagine he gave in to the jeers and wrote out c**t, then got moderated for his troubles.

hello black lady :)

That's a really messed up thing to do. I would just relax though, get your hair done, call them back, go to prom, stew about it, have fun, find out where they live, graduate, cut the person to pieces, and move on with life.

"Get your hair done" that is so funny. Being prom day there wouldnt be a hairdresser available!

You have prom in June?

My school prom was in June, and I had my Geography exam the same day.

Since school ends late where I live (June 23), our prom is late too. Might be the same case for OP.

Besides FMLs don't necessarily have to be current.

Usually schools in the north US and Canada start in September and end in June.

School ends late where I live (UK) which is mid July and we have our prom when we're 16 because that's when we officially leave high school. We normally have study leave which means we finish at around the end of May and have prom after the last exam (that's how my year done it anyway, we organise prom ourselves) and that was the 24th June

If this is the biggest issue in your life currently consider yourself blessed.

I hope you still managed to get an appointment :)

Call him back, change your voice. Tell him he won a million dollars, and that he should give you his SSN and bank account#. Let the fun begin.

Since the pranker must be a creative person to just go with the OP's call, he must be rather intelligent, so I doubt he would go with giving her his credentials or bank info ;)

The point was to prank him, not actually scam him(I hope), so it's good if he doesn't give up his ssn.

Call the asshole back and pretend he's won money and collect it he needs to collect it from any business make him look a tool
