Why you don't want a job at the Coffee Cup or at the Azalea Lounge. AKA "the stuff around us we take for granted thread".

I pay $45/month to be on the Verizon towers.  That gives me unlimited calling,  text and data.
And I paid only $79.95 for a really great bang-for-buck LG android smartphone.

Finally,  after years and years of using every prepaid provider/phone combination available,  I now have something that performs damn near perfectly and satisfies my every need.
It has a better coverage area and is faster on the web than anything I've ever had.  And the cheap smartphone does everything I need it to do.  And the best feature of all is the amount of time it gives me on a charge and even when I'm doing a lot of phone and web. Probably double that of any other smartphone I've owned including some very expensive ones.

Thankyou Walmart for making this happen.

Sounds like you are happy with your Android smartphone.  I've been thinking of getting a smartphone.  Yes, I still have a "flip phone" and I'm 2 years past due for an upgrade.  Android is one of the phones we can use with our electronic Lock Box system.

One day I might get a smart phone....my flip phone works great.

Mine does too although I did just start texting about six months ago.

When I was younger...I used to love having ALMOST the latest thing.  I liked someone else to work out the bugs first.  Now, it doesn't seem as important for some reason.  Just glad when I wake up!

Lol.....my kids will text me. If I send a text it takes about 10 minutes....if I make a mistake there is no backup button.

Probably the same folks who grouse about their reception.
