Re: i love scotch
It's all about Johnnie Walker BLUE! I just got me a bottle at the duty free shop for $135! :-)...
There is indeed an alarm
I just sold this phone to my friend, and he almost didnt get it when I told him there was no alarm. Rather than trusting that the specs on this site are 100% error-free...I decided it might be a good idea to check the box!
It's clearly written on the box that it has an alarm, and when I scrolled through the menus...sure enough..alarm clock!
If I were you I'd trade it in for this phone. I would like ...
Re: is canuck a putdown or a description?
funny you should say that...i just got back from costa rica about 2 days ago! i went backpacking for 2 weeks over new years, and pretty much 85% of the backpackers i met in costa rica were all from canada. they all said the same thing "we're here to escape the -20 degree weather" because obviously its summertime down there in CR
and yes... "eh" is not just a stereotype

nope. never heard of that
Re: Work is so much more fun when...
when i said a year of bending over employees...I was referring to employees they've done it to...but I didnt let them do it to me.
another thing they were doing by screwing everyone is raising minimum quotas and keeping the store stock of phones laughable. A kiosk inside vons probably has more stock than this rather large store with a large, empty stockroom. some of us made it work, others didnt...and its a shame because some good employees ...
Re: Work is so much more fun when...
It wasn't a year of getting screwed. its been 12 months of tolerable inconveniences and that got resolved (bounced paychecks and short commission checks) that were caused in part to upper managements carlessness, irresponsibility, or dishonesty. This past month though they've decided to not pay 3 reps ANY commission and they dont plan on doing so. 12 months of periodic BS problems and one month of utter BS = time to leave
P.S. The month in which ...
Re: Work is so much more fun when...
Sorry big shot..but the reason I'm quitting is because this company is worthless and has continually tried to bend over every employee they've had for the past year. More importantly is I already have a much better job lined up already which will pay me significantly more than what I ever made at this place.
As far as reference is concerned, my reference is my store manager. He's a friend of mine, he's already been contacted and spoke ...
Work is so much more fun when...
you're on your last week of a two week notice. I quit this lousy job a week ago...and I'm obviously not going to get any commission this month because they still expect me to hit a months worth of minimum quota in 2 weeks...(i'll need at least 30 activations... and from this store, it AINT GONNA HAPPEN)
Anyways, considering I'm not going to get paid for anything I do (except for my hourly that will barely buy me a ...

Quick Question for Sprint rep
I remember from back when I sold sprint, that if you do an ESN change it changes your upgrade eligibility date regardless of whether you bought a phone at full retail, upgrade, ebay, or whatever...
Did they ever change that? I signed up in April, so if they changed it before then, then thats good. I'm going camping this weekend and I wanted to use a phone with a battery that lasts longer than the 15 minutes of ...

Re: sportsmanship
It's good to know theres a number of checks done...because I didnt mention anything to my coworkers about the contest. As far as I know I'm the only member of the forums here at work. I'm fairly certain the IP addresses are the same for each computer here at the store and I didnt want that to compromise my chances. And me, being the selfish person that I am :) ... I didn't mention the ...

Re: That was... odd
And you didnt sell them? Sell them, then call the DM and say someone stole all the posters while you were on break or lunch or overnight.
Re: Suckered.
I prolly woulda done the same thing...except I woulda been a little bit more crafty about it to get her number. If your boss really gripes about it...they can take the dollar(cost of that charger) out of your paycheck.

Re: Laptop PC Card for Internet Access
Only with a VZW voice plan is your price 59.99, and the same applies with Sprint (at least in my market). I'm not sure about Cingular because I do not sell them anymore. If you're mostly concerned about speed and less concerned about price I would say go with Sprint. Sprint has had their 3G network longer than Cingular and its more than likely more developed than Cingulars, and Verizon recently announced that their unlimited plan ...
Why doesnt nextel sell sim cards?
Our inventory manager is always saying that we cant buy Nextel sim cards...and the agent down the road from us I'm assuming cant sell them either, because they're always sending customers to us saying they can buy sim cards here.
We had a former employee that would buy nextel sims from an ebay seller that he trusted, and he'd sell them for 50 bucks under the table seeing as they're so hard to come by. All the cards he ...

Re: Anyone else?
I get it sometimes where the page will take a couple minutes to load, or not load at all and the screen will remain completely white. I usually dont wait for it, I close the browser and just re-open phonescoop and it works fine...but I have to re-log in. It doesnt really bother me too much though

Re: Alternative to free ringtones since walmart is useless nowadays
Yeah, I did mp3 format when I did that also...but I pretty much cut and pasted that from a Sprint forum. I have sprint :)
Re: Alternative to free ringtones since walmart is useless nowadays
1.) Make a copy of the song you want to use
2.) Open the copy in iTunes and right click the song and go to "Get Info". Under the Options tab change the start and stop time to whatever 30 seconds of the song you actually want to hear.
3.) Now again right click the song and select "Convert to AAC". Once conversion is done, save the AAC file as a name and in a place that will be easy ...

Stupid stuff that annoys the crap out of me
"Thats an easy number to remember"
...It doesnt matter WHAT number it is, some annoying person always says that. The only person who really needs to memorize your number these days is yourself. If you cant memorize it after the first, second or third time, then you probably have a difficult time memorizing your street address also and there is little hope for yourself.
"Do you have (insert random product)?"
"No we ...

Re: Disabling the camera V300 or other options.
Phones on Ebay will be your best option. I've never heard of any store or repair center permanently removing a camera from a phone...and something on Ebay would probably be cheaper anyways...just make sure the seller doesnt have a lot of negative feedback. I've seen people come in with busted Ebay phones before.

have a drunken crackhead come into my store and scream at me for 20 minutes about how her tracfone doesn't work anymore because she lit it on fire, than having a person ignore me. Theres nothing more that I hate when I politely ask someone what I could help them with, or even just say "hello" and they pretend like I'm a f*cking invisible mute. ACKNOWLEDGE ME!! Say "no thank you" or "hello" or "f*ck off" ...
