Today at my local Sheetz I used Google Wallet to pay (second time using it there and at all.) When I tapped my phone to the receiver the cashier asked me if I had just hacked her machine. I replied no and said I just used my phone to checkout, however she still went and got her manager, telling him she thinks I did something weird. I had to explain to the manager that I was using Google Wallet. Luckily the manager knew what NFC and Google Wallet was but it got me wondering if anybody else out there has had any non-technical problems using Google Wallet.
That's just funny. :thumbup:

LOL, I get the "oh wow" from the cashier sometimes.
I dont find it amusing, usually I find myself annoyed or upset depending on the actions taken by the cashier. Now I just say paypass and ask them to hit credit when they give me that dead eye confused stare
People aren't bright.
I laugh
I've been told twice by differnt rinky dink gas stations that have paypass that they don't take my phone as payment. I have to have a card. I don't argue cause it's a gas station employee and I'm usually buying like $2-3 worth of stuff.
I've had a few people tell me they don't think it will work, although it usually does, but no ones freaked out on me so far. Just say you're using it as credit and do it before they realize what you're doing.
if they try to say they dont accept do what i do, its funny cause you get more weird looks! just say your paypass card is under your phonecase or behind the battery door
I used Google Wallet at the McDonalds I used to work at and all the Employees and Managers just stared in amazement when I used it to by a McFlurry

When I called sprint to have my phone activated, the lady asked if the evo 3d came with glasses. How could someone who works at sprint not know that the phone is glasses free?
got mine from radioshack. I was the first preorder and they know me well, I walked in and they grabbed a evo 3d without even asking. and I watched her break the seal on mine. She did the ESN swap that was it. she didnt set the phone up in any way. There were 4 other people getting the e3d when I was in there, They updated the phone for them, set up gmail, facebook, twitter and all sorts of stuff. I guess thats nice but... not for me. I didnt get charged the $18 upgrade fee either. (or a activation fee at that) my RS store treats me right.

Dude you gotta call cust care TOMORROW and ask what they think about this. You will get a big ass credit (pun intended) guaranteed.

I just wanted to take a moment in between our tech obsession to remember the people who were lost on 9/11/01 ..growing up in NY this day means alot to me and makes me want to give thanks to the nypd and nyfd, many who were lost attempting to save others. Also to the service men who continue to protect our freedom. You are all heros
AMEN! 10 char

I still can't believe those *****es would do something so horrific to not only our country but to human life in general.
I've been watching all of these 9/11 documentaries the whole week, it breaks my heart to know so many innocent people lost their lives that day. 2200+ innocent people man.
My heart goes out to all of the families that lost loved ones.
Nice thread, let's remember all the fallen heroes and family members that were lost on that day. May god watch over the fallen ones and their family's.

It was horrible ..I was watching from Staten island while the towers collapsed and destroyed Manhattan. I can barely stand to watch the documentaries since they make me cry like a school girl ..the destruction was so complete and the skyline will never be the same. But during this time it also showed the resolve if people ...while people were trying to run across the Brooklyn bridge other were running towards the towers to assist in anyway they could. It is burned into my brain forever ..the smell the dust the desperate people searching for loved ones .. I have since left NY but when you go back you still expect to see the towers there dominating the skyline

While living in NY at the time it happened, I can tell you I have never seen people come together as one as they did at that time. It didn't matter if you were black, white, chinese, jewish, mexican, etc, at that point in time you were just an American and nothing else mattered!
I wish we could live like that every day and not need such a tragedy to bring people together for a short period of time.
Yea. .ppl did come together that day ..comforting complete strangers. Picking them up off the ground while trying to escape falling debris and the dust cloud that engulfed everything ..it was unbelievable

America is full of spirit today. I love it.
I remember I was sitting on social studies class in high school. I had just bought my two way pager (motorola time port p935) the day before, and I got an alert while I was in class saying that two towers had just been struck by planes. I tried several times to tell my teacher to turn on the tv. He kept askin me "why". I couldn't tell him how I knew, because he would have took my two way. About 5 minutes later, the teacher from the next class came in and told him to turn on the tv. That's when I first saw it.
I'll never forget that moment. I'm not a person to cry much. But I did that when I saw it.
Amen to that, I will never for get that day. I was in school when they were hit and remember watching the news after the first one struck. Then my mom came and got about a half hour after the second hit. God bless all.
Yes. That is a day I will always remember. God bless the USA!

My cousin crystal worked in tower 2 back then...as fate would have it she had to go to her other office for a meeting which was a half a block away ..to make a Long story short, she lost all if her Co workers that day ..I'm am lucky that I didn't lose anyone close that day ..but if your a new Yorker it's. Almost impossible to not know someone who was lost ..

This thread is not about Photon, It is about me and I need some serious help. From my post here, most of you know me. Single, live in great upscale neighborhood, cool job. I don't do drugs, drink some. I walk around crib in boxers, scratch myself, fart, leave the toliet seat up, I'm me.
Was at local bar Monday and a local lesbian (she is cool) asked me if I knew someone that had a room for rent. I don't. She told me about lesbian friend that needed a room. Sorry, no clue. Why cant she stay with you I asked. She is still living with Ex. She asked about my crib! I told her (and seriously) I really don't play well with others! I have my TV's, Pool Table, 3 Computers (don't ask!) Actually 4 computers with job.................No, I cannot live with anyone.
THEN, I met said lesbian. On a scale of 1 to 10, she is the square root of 1Tb devided by 69 plus 10 to the square of 2!!!!!!!!!!!! If you google Ice-T and Coco, she is Coco with Black hair and light blue eyes that will melt mear mortal men. 5'11", Soft spoken, laid back. Told me she is quite and just needs a few months as she just moved back from West Coast. After I dropped $75.00 on food and drinks, I told her I would think about it. To be honest, she can have my crib and my check, I cannot get her off my mind!!
And you really want to know how bad it is, I came to work today and left Photon at home!!
Now she is staying with friends in the hood (My brother lives that way and I don't visit him!) on one hand, I want to help. On the other hand, I'm a man and.......I dont know. I'm going to lunch!
Sally! She probably needs to know stuff up front. Boxers, etc.
Personally I wouldn't. I am not a trusting person, especially with all of your loot scattered around the house.

Actually, this entire mess is the Photons fault!!! The original lesiban also has OtterBox and started asking me phone questions. Then she wanted to know what Hennessy taste like. Then bumming smokes..............I need to meet a stright chick!!!
True, it is a recipe for disaster.
What happens when work sends you away again? You come to an empty house. You don't exactly have the worlds best track record with women, according to your posts. You'll move her in, next thing you know you're paying for her cell minutes, clothes, car, nose candy, etc.

I have pretty much made up my mind it 100% no. This is a mess waiting to happen and I have no way to win.
From my understanding, what she is paying in the hood she could never make it 1/2 way to my neighborhood.
2. Unless you have 725 Credit Score and $100K renters insurance your not coming to my hood. Next, you have to physically go to UGI and PP&L and get the utilities in YOUR Name before they will give you keys. Which is why she is looking for the roommate deal.
3. What happens if I get some a**, what do I do with her? (Or do I have to fight the lesibin?)
Anyway, its a no win situation where I will get f**ked, in a bad way, if I let her, or anyone else, stay with me!

I'm working on it! I went to happy hour last night and did not see either of them. She lives 15 miles away from here. The only reason she got over here the other day and the other chick was showing her around.
just convert her do the darkside and then ull be fine. some girls dont know what they want, they switch back and forth many times.
Just want to rant out .
I hate thieves with a passion , no life scum .
Any ways ill start off by saying that I am a junior in high school , my first hour class is gym . By the time gym class ended and i was out of my gym clothes I sat down in a bench waiting for the bell to ring ( usually takes 10 mins) to move onto my second class .
Anyways I set my phone down right next to me so I can think for a while (there was a group of 3 sitting 3 steps up) , and after 10 mins passed , the bell rang . I got up put on my back pack and I walked down a foot then I realized I didn't felt my phone in my pocket . I looked back as everyone was leaving , and I see this guy quickly drop his back pack where I thought I left my phone .
He looked at me ,waiting for me to leave (as I was too staring at him knowing my phone was possibly there ) so he can grab my phone . After about 5 seconds he lifts his back pack ( knowing I was not going to leave ) and he tries to act suprised saying " oh here's your phone " .
I snatched it without saying a word , and left very angrily .
Now I'm reminiscing ,thinking how mad I would of been of I completely forgot my baby and that low life scum stole it.
What can I say ? *****es love the 3D
I think it would be pretty stupid to steal any Sprint/Verizon phone. One phonecall and phone turns into a paperweight. As much as "*****es love 3D" I just think it was more of "ooh shiny, let me take that" than "OMG Evo 3D!"

Happened to me once, but I had to chase the guy, then after a while he got tired and stopped and looked at me straight in the eye, I said "Give my phone back", he said "I don't have it" (Quick note, my phone has an extended battery which makes my phone look huge, so it looked like he had a big brick in his pocket or my phone, and last one I checked no one carries a big brick to Music class) , I pushed him against the wall and he said , "I found the phone , I was gonna return it to the front office, you big baby can't live without your phone". Now he won't stop calling me a big baby because I cry about my phone. But I assure you something, spend your entire summer earning hard earned cash to buy yourself a 3D, then come back and talk. When its yours you really care about it, most thieves have nothing to care about. That's why they don't care about going to jail. So if you get in a fight to get something YOU payed for, you're not crying or anything. It's not much of the phone. It's the anger that they can get away with stealing someone's hard earned item.

I've never had anything stolen from me,
But there was this one time when i was a kid, I lived in Kenya, and thieves broke into our house. I remember the alarm going off, went downstairs a while later when things calmed down and saw my PlayStation 2 pulled out from the TV Cabinet. Lucky for me they were probably trying to pull it straight out instead of taking the wires out, but the alarm went off so they must have had a last attempt to pull it straight out, BUT the wires were all tangled and it didnt come out xD!
I woulda cried if they took it! I loved my PS2!

These kind of tragedies should remind us of more important things in life. We shouldn't dwell on the past, but it puts things in perspective. Not getting the latest update from Google is a small thing compared to major world events.

I remember I was in my college dorm watching it on the tv. That was a crazy day. The campus was shut down. We couldn't believe it. All the higher security after. And this was in Louisiana.....It kinda started me towards being a firefighter.

Here's my screensaver for the day. Remembering the kony and the towers.
Was in military the day it happened. We were told to make sure our wills were filled out right, bc we were going to war the next day. Was very surreal.

These kind of tragedies should remind us of more important things in life. We shouldn't dwell on the past, but it puts things in perspective. Not getting the latest update from Google is a small thing compared to major world events. I would like to thank all those who serve our country and keep us safe. 9/11 was the worst day for our country that has happened in my lifetime.

God bless America. Also everyone should know yesterday a cop officer Patrick O'Rourke was murdered by some embezzling douche that didn't want to go to jail in my home town West Bloomfield MI.

I used to work in the WTC, and across the street at the WFC. Watched the towers go up when I was a kid. As a First Responder worked the '93 bombing.

On September 11, 2001 I was in the Pentagon, around the corner and down the hall from the point of impact. I had just helped a lady find an office in that section, and she was killed there less than 10 minutes later.
I can't begin to talk about the rest of that week, but I had to burn my uniform and boots after because they were contaminated.
I am still in the Pentagon, although I am now a civilian. I still have a graphic with photographs of the people who died here that day (minus the terrorists) in my office. I look at that graphic every day.
I will never forget.

I work with his brother in law and know his wife. It's really messed up all of the senseless acts that leave children without parents and parents without children. He left behind four young kids and a wife.

I was still in High School in NYC and remember that it was a nice day just like today. The school managed to keep it contained until late in the day, at which point it was a devastating shock. Thoughts and prayers to those who lost loved ones that tragic day.

I was in second grade when it happened. My teacher played the news for our class and I was so traumatized by the event that I went to therapy for a bit as a kid. Never forget.

I was a freshman in hs. In the shower at the time when first plane hit. My dad came pounding on the door "we've been attacked!" Was late goin to school cause I was glued to tv. In every class the news was on, no one did anything that day. No one even went out of their rooms for break or lunch. We all stayed in watching the events fold. And to this day I especially acknowledge every one in the military as I work a lot in different bases as a civilian contractor. It's especially hard at places like the navy medical center in san Diego. The ones in wheel chairs with half their bodies missing from ied's. I make it a point to stop and thank them for their service. Everyone in our office now does it every time no matter where we work. And I want to say thank you for your courage and honor you bestowed to this country on Sept 11th and on to anyone here that I can't personally shake hands with.
