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

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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

#43 - noone here is saying they are a saint but its a pretty low thing to do to someone, especially as its something that they can't control

You are a horrible person. I'm GLAD it was the guy who might have hired you. You don't DESERVE a job.

BiggLJ, of course no one's perfect, but why would you make fun of someone who is disabled?? That's cruel. It's not like they can help it.

FYL. No, that wasn't to you, OP. That's to the man whom you just insulted and pretty much crushed his life. I used to have a speech impediment, and I am still trying to form my words better, but do you know how hard it is to live with it? It's like being made fun of because you were born with a disorder. Even if it was someone you didn't recognize, what gave you the right to ridicule his speech ability? That's beyond rude and disrespectful. That's just horrific. YDI all the way.

I totally agree. I tend to stutter horribly and just have a hard time talking in general whenever I get particularly excited or nervous. It's always been something that I've had to try and hide because of jackasses like this. We can't help it, and neither could this man. You deserve what you got, and really much more.

You're a terrible person and completely deserved that. You could have been a civil person and maybe you would have a job right now. Asshole.
