had this guy come in with a broken razr (screen was smashed). he is from down south and was here with his mother. of course no insurance and not avail for upgrade. so i tell him the retail prices and he isnt having it. luckily mom is ready for upgrade, so i cheat the system a lil and upgrade her then esn swap the phones for them. while im doing this i have like 3 other custy's walk up to my kiosk. so i'm tryin to talk to all of em so i dont lose any sales (they all left anyway). Well i went to transfer the dudes contacts from the broken razr to the new phone, but since i was distracted/in a hurry i accidently hooked the phones up backwards, entered the info backwards and erased all his contacts 🤭


yea he was kinda pissed. never ye...

🤣 Been there, done that. On the bright side, at least he didn't have to pay retail for the phone.

I never understand why people dont back their numbers up on their computer or something like that. I get people all the time with a broken phone and of course none are saved to the SIM. Then I get the whole song and dance that they have very important irreaplacable numbers on their phone. I always think to myself that if the info on their phone is so important they would take steps to back it up. There are so many options out there to do it there is no excuse not to.

I'm not trying to be an ass... but you do realize that in that situation, which happens most of the time, you just transfer them to the sim before swapping the sim into the new phone? I mean, you know you can do this right?

Depends how broken it is. On the average it's not so bad you can't get the numbers out.

Take a phone with no working screen and save all the contacts to the sim. I can, can you?

no, you will lay down and cease dishing out backtalk. It's very unbecoming. Once you do it on a blackberrty, then come talk to me.

That's ****ing impossible at that point the customer can deal with it. Unless of course you have a black berry activated near you to copy the commands. ... starbucks time

Wow your lucky the phones I usually get look like they have been dragged by a car doing 70 on the freeway and then repeatedly run over by a steam roller.
