I was nice once. Well a couple times actually. Every time I was I was immediately gratified in my doing so. Then something else would come along and equalize that gratification back down to regular blah or dig some and just make things just a tad shittier. I keep being nice because eventually I do something else that makes it all better but then that immediate gratification would be swept away by some other bullshit. At this point I'm scared to not be nice because what if the shit's going to come anyways and I'll have nothing to balance it out with?
Here's my latest story.
I lose my phone. Stupid me. Don't leave you phone in a loose jacket pocket and keep a back up of your phone numbers saved somewhere. Anyways I lose my phone and I figured hey this would be a great time to add Her to my plan, get a better plan and grab a new shiny. Mmm new shiny. So I call up my sprint help line and ask for a new better plan and two new phones. I was nice and polite on the phone I got the plan I wanted, I got two awesome phones at an awesome price and everything was going to be mailed to me and all was honkey-doorey.
Then the plan got fucked up.
The phone I got apparently unbeknown to me wasn't compatible with my plan. Why would a sprint phone not be compatible with all sprint plans? I have no fucking idea but it doesn't make too much sense to me. So I go to the store. The guy there is awesome and helps me get an EVEN BETTER phone for nearly the same price. The phones if you're curious are the sprint instinct to the HTC Touch PRO. The instinct required a simply everything plan and apparently the HTC Touch PRO doesn't. God, I'd procreate with that phone. It's a bit thick but I tend to like them darker, thicker and more useful.
Hi baby!
Everything works out fine in the store and I only had to almost yell at some guy on the phone. I was all prepped and ready to unleash a shit storm too. When I didn't have to I just stood there with all this pent up rage waiting to be unleashed but no where to direct it at. It was like trying to stop peeing midstream only with anger. If you every had a really angry piss and you tried to stop it in the middle I guess you'd know what I'm talking about.
So the girl gets her phone and I'm insanely envious. I try to steal the phone from her whenever she isn't humping it herself just to stare at the warm glow of the screen. I, have to wait for the phone to get in stock. While waiting I discover that the original person I talked to not only screwed up on my phone with the plan but he screwed up Her's as well. So another call to Sprint to fix this mess. This time a little less nice but still not beligerent and still paitient. The person I talked to helped me out, fixed everything (hopefully) and now I'm on a pretty decent high waiting for a trap door to fall out from under me and sending me into the person my pent up angry piss is going to be showered upon.
You know, I'm really sorry for talking about phones and urine in the same entry. That's not what I came here to say. The REASON why I wanted to write this entry was to encourage people to be nice because everytime I've been nice it's paid off. This is just one of many stories I have where being nice has paid off. I only did the happy -> phone -> pee thing to be funny. If you want a story with less of a stretch I'll tell an angry story next time...
