She needs a new cell phone. Her Blackberry is old and gave her fits when she was on her road trip. Fine with me but I hate retail establishments. They have little boys with ponytails that float about in their loafers and girls with pink eyeglasses when engaged in conversation use 'like' as apostrophes.
I wonder if they barter as I have several nice squirrel hides.

Might be fun to watch the little girly boys and girls squeal!
ReplyDeleteWe were very lucky...one dude, a real man named Mike. Not another soul in the shop. It was a pleasant experience.
Deletefor where you are, I need to be. I too am in need of a new cell phone. I currently use Seniors old one.
ReplyDeleteShe is now the proud owner of a Samsung Galxy Four....if I spelled it correctly. Anyhow, so far, she likes it. Tell Senior to forgo his next new firearm and purchase you a new phone. Thanks, Pretty Girl.

DeleteNo! With the sale of BlackBerry looming, wish I didn't go back to it, but I do like them so I will use until it dies.
DeleteSame with me...thanks, Bro.
DeleteIf the thing rings that's all I need. Even then 9 times out of 10 I have no idea where I laid the thing anyway.
ReplyDeleteI understand...you're kinda like me. We did away with our land line and only use cells. I keep mine attached to my belt. Now she has a portable computer in her hand.
DeleteToday had the need to enter a cell phone store in order to pay the monthly bill for a friends. A mouth breathing couple had the staff tied up with some idiocy forcing me to wait several minutes. They left without purchasing. My next stop was picking up a prescription. Alas, same couple was ahead of me. Tied up that line for some ten minutes before paying $2.00 for something (suspicions mind thinks they are welfare clowns). My time at the window at both places? Ten minutes, tops.
ReplyDeleteYour story - the very reason I hate entering the world of brick and mortar stores. I'm fine in the grocery store, otherwise, nope.
DeleteMy cell phone still has a rotary dial. Joe gets the updated ones, but I get to make a call without the picture icons and all the buttons.
ReplyDeleteHello? Can you hear me now?
You poor little girl....I'm sorry. Tell Joe Christmas is but a few days away.
DeleteNO! I'd never figure out how to make calls.
DeleteIf I can't get it on line, I usually just pass. Going to stores is not a fun experience. Except gun stores or places that sell ammo.
ReplyDeleteYep, agreed. I tried last evening to purchase and transfer her account online, but it refused to allow us to keep her current number...had to go to 'da store....buttholes. An hour out of our lives.
DeleteRight on Harry!!! I have to agree with you :-)
Deletelike - i hate those types of establishments too! they, like, suck. that's why, like, just like Harry, we try to do all of those kind of, like, purchases, like, over the internet. like, it sounds like your Sweet Wife got, like, a pretty cool, like new phone. bahahahahahahah! are you ready to strangle me yet?!?!?!?

Deletethanks PioneerP - i bin, like, practicing - bahahahah!
Sweet Kymber,
DeleteWho taught these kids to have a conversation?? Like.....like.........grrrrrrrrr!!!!
Sandy in answer to your question - our wonderful socialist public school system.
DeleteSorry I'm late to the party on this post, but I've been in that store. Didn't stay long, though.
ReplyDeleteRev., I was shocked to walk into the place and find the place empty, other than its manager. In and out in forty minutes. Thanks.
DeleteHeh... Want to hear the AAR on this one! :-)
ReplyDeleteIt wasn't so bad....thank goodness.
DeleteAs I thought of going to a retail outlet, or a mall, I had to pour some scotch. Some things are so daunting, they damn near leave you shaking.
ReplyDeleteYou and me both, Bubba. Hate it.
