I had an interesting day yesterday. I worked from 11am to 4pm which wasn't bad, except that 5 hours isn't a lot when you're scheduled 3 times a week and it's time for the check to come.
After work a friend and I decided to shop for clothes at the local mall. It went well I spent about $50 and got plenty of outfits. While I was there, however, I was in the fitting room trying on pants. I had to take my phone and keys out of my pocket since I didn't want to damage them, if by some chance they fell out and onto the floor while laying them down.
Somewhere along the way, my phone had a brain malfunction and stopped working.
By "stopped working" I mean, the screen went black. I could hear the sounds
when I received a call, email, voicemail, or text message, but I had no way of viewing any of them. I thought (more so, hoping) that my battery had died, even though I knew I had a full battery. My boyfriend has the same phone as I do, so I had the genius idea of bothering him at work about it. Unfortunately he had no idea what to do.
We both agreed that leaving it on the charger overnight may fix the problem, even though we didn't know what the problem was.
That, unfortunately, did not fix the problem. I woke up this morning to the same problem. Very frustrated and very impatient to fix it, I went online trying to fund a solution, which was never found.
There is, to my delght, an Apple store near my apartment that I was planning in going to. But my sense of direction is awful, I know how to get there....but getting out is hard.
I decided I'd visit my brother for directions while picking up some mail that is still delivered there. Two birds, one stone.
I got there and he looked over my phone to see if he could figured it out. And he did. He fixed my phone!! I have a phone again!! So I'm very happy now, but I feel very stupid because all he did was hold down some buttons and it restarted. So I get my phone back, but I feel like an idiot. A win/lose situation.
I love this phone, but it often defeats my patience and knowledge.
I love it, but I hate it.

Haha, perfect tie-in at the end to the blog title! I approve!
ReplyDeleteDon't feel stupid...who would've known that holding random crap buttons would make it work again? Not me. I suppose that could've been a slight God situation, since you had no idea your bro could fix it and he did! sweet!
