Today, I got a new phone. Only after berating the Sprint employee and Apple support desk because I could not call, text, or access the Internet did I find out that I didn't need to buy a new phone. It was just on airplane mode. FML

Today, after going to T-Mobile thinking my phone won't receive texts, I found out that my phone is perfectly fine, my friends just don't text me back. FML

Today, my cell phone broke. It wouldn't even turn on. I went online to access my account so that I could order a new phone. I couldn't remember my password. The phone company had an option of "forgot my password". Upon clicking I get a message saying "Your password will be sent to your phone". FML

Today, I switched cell phone service providers, hoping to upgrade. After working out the details and picking a phone in the store, I got home to find my brand new cell can't get a signal in my house. I already signed the two year contract. FML

Today, my iPhone got back from being fixed. When I opened the box there was a note attached to my phone that said, "All you had to do was turn it on." FML

Today, I went to the Apple store to try and figure out what's going on with my iPhone. After an hour of speaking to three different geniuses and waiting around, their solution was to "Google it." FML

Today, I realized that with all the money I've spent on repairs for my iPhone through the months, I could have bought a phone that doesn't die horribly whenever I so much as give it a mean look. FML

Today, after calling the insurance plan for my new iPhone a "huge waste of money", I promptly dropped it in the store while trying to put it into my pocket, cracking the screen. FML

Today, I dropped my phone. I'd only just bought this new phone last night. It barely survived 12 hours. FML

That is what you get for berating those trying to help you.

I'm really hoping this taught you a lesson in treating people with a little bit of common courtesy and respect. I can't stand people like you and I really hope you felt the weight of your stupidity and actions.

First, I can't believe none of the "geniuses" asked you to check that or checked it themselves if you went in person. But Please do the right thing & call them back to apologize. Anyone who has ever worked customer service appreciates when a customer actually does this. I know you probably won't get the same people, but believe me, its logged in your account file and every time you call in the future, whomever you talk too will read about how you acted & treat you accordingly.

I work in tech support. You are the worst kind of person to support.

**** you for being an awful customer. I think you should buy the poor employees some coffee or flowers and apologize for being in the wrong. Shit head.
