As the stomach turns

Well, I talked with my Cell Phone company and since I am on a three year program I need to continue to pay that amount each month, and I need to replace my phone.

The cheapest one they had was around $150, and now I need to purchase it outright.

Groan.

The one I had was probably double that, but came "free" because of the longer contract.

So this morning I called all the pawnbrokers in town and no one had seen such a phone yet this week.

So it probably isn't going to be pawned.

Probably ends up in a garbage can some place.

Sheesh. That is frustrating.

And now I get to lock my office door every Sunday while I'm in the place too.

  1. Wow, a 3 year phone plan :o I am rather shocked I've never heard of one that long before.

    It tends to be 12 or 18 months here and even then by about 9 months the operator will have probably called you up trying to get you to commit to another year or so.

  2. Did you try calling your phone and asking for it back?

  4. Nope. I lied, it was a three year term, and wow are you ahead of us or what!

    yeah Kevin, first thing I did.

    It said the phone was still off. So I had my company shut it down immediately.

    She probably ditched it.

  5. I hate when people steal your stuff and throw it out. This has happened to me more than once and I hate it. It's bad enough to get stolen from and someone else profits from your possessions, but when no one profits it feels even worse. So pointless. (I suppose in the end, no one ever really profits though do they?)
