To think OH prank isn't funny?

afternoonnapqueen · 15/03/2021 13:24

Today is the day I hear if I got the job I wanted I'm really banking on getting it and will be gutted if I don't.

I get terrible anxiety I worked myself up so much last week I had a panic attack. OH has been pranking me this morning of No caller ID he even got his brother to join in.

I kept thinking I missed the call and was wondering why they couldn't hear me when I kept saying Hello, I was getting my self into a right mess.

OH and his brother cracking up laughing messaging each other, now they've put me in a terrible mood.

AIBU to think this isn't funny or am I just too serious?

Jesus Christ that’s really, really fucking cruel.

I can’t stomach pricks like him. I’d put money on him being an absolute dickhead who uses the word “banter” all the time...

"Preparing you for the call?" What, by getting you in a nervous state, anxious and tearful? Yeah, that would really prepare you for an important phone call. Twat that he is.

@afternoonnapqueen

I'm in tears over it all he's saying I've ruined the day because I've got in a mood over it all. God I hate him so much! He's trying to say he was preparing me for the call.
Is he? Then he really is a prick, isn't he.

Have you told him to leave you alone so you can calm down and concentrate on the job?

Actually, is that the iissue. You'll get a job you like. Does he object to thatfor some reason?

Whatever, ask him for some space and concentrate on calming yourself down so you can take the call without snottering all over the phone Grin

You can deal with him properly once you know about the job.

Is his ‘sense of humour’ always like this ? It’s just nasty.

He ruined the day. He doesn't get to turn it on you. You behaved appropriately for the situation, which is to be upset or angry at someone belittling you.
Lsquiggles · 15/03/2021 13:35

What a bastard, why are you with him?

I hope you get the job Smile

FilledSoda · 15/03/2021 13:35

That comes from a place of anger .
He doesn't want you to get that job.

@afternoonnapqueen

I'm sorry he's being such a dickhead.

You have however now have a bunch of absolute queens here to hold your hand and root for you.

We're all hoping you get the job.

ColdTattyWaitingForSummer · 15/03/2021 13:36

Yuck! What an immature plonker!! Hoping for good news re job OP, and that your next step onwards and upwards is dumping his sorry ass. Flowers

NormanStangerson · 15/03/2021 13:36

He sounds like an absolute twat, OP. My god. He is pathetic. How do you cope with someone like that?

I hope you get the job and can leave him forever to play prank calls with his equally twatty brother.

MajorMujer · 15/03/2021 13:36

Good luck for the job op.
I'd ditch the twat for this behaviour.

CagneyNYPD · 15/03/2021 13:36

He's a nasty piece of work. I really hope that you get the job.

BitchAssBitch · 15/03/2021 13:36

It isn't funny. He's a wanker. Aim higher Smile

whiteshark · 15/03/2021 13:36

That's not a prank, thats a Cunty Mc Cuntison thing to do.

Your OH and BIL are total pricks

MozzarellaMonster · 15/03/2021 13:37

Let's hope you get the job and a new boyfriend who doesn't gang up on your with your brother!

changingnames786 · 15/03/2021 13:37

What a cunt. How unbelievably dense and cruel does someone have to to be to do that. Not even remotely funny. I hope you get the job OP.

Biscuitsanddoombar · 15/03/2021 13:38

He’s an utter twat!!

I hope you get the job and ditch the OH

takingmytimeonmyride · 15/03/2021 13:38

What a horrible thing to do, how old is he, 12? (and that's insulting most 12 year olds).
Good luck with the job!

Weirdfan · 15/03/2021 13:42

I'd have a think about what it might be like to have a partner who supports, soothes, reassures and encourages you instead of this absolute dickhead who thinks winding you up and upsetting you is the best way to 'prepare' you OP. Because all the time you stay with him you're closing off the opportunity to meet someone who's actually nice to you. I have everything crossed you get that job, and that you realise this dickhead isn't good enough for you Flowers

timeisnotaline · 15/03/2021 13:42

Good luck with the job! Sorry you’re with a dick. Don’t let him get away with saying you’ve ruined the day. HE ruined the mood, because he’s a dick.

OldEvilOwl · 15/03/2021 13:42

What a prick! why are you with him?

Wurrg · 15/03/2021 13:44

That's disgusting. I'd leave him, especially if it is indicative of other issues.

RagzReturnsRebooted · 15/03/2021 13:44

Total twatbadger.
Good luck with the job.
