Jerked Around

Being placed into unreasonable situations generally for the benefit or amusement of someone else. This often occurs as punishment for minor transgressions or a simple faux pas.

"Man when Travis applied for a new job and then was denied a promotion because of it, he was jerked around. Those bitch managers need to get laid and stop messing with peoples lives."
