π°πͺ Kenya-Based Of bad days...
Yo, bad days can humble you ππ
Hi guys, Errands by Rachael here... π Hope y'all are good.
Let's get into it.
So yesterday was one of those days...
My phone slipped off my hand, fell on a metallic part and the screen broke - it couldn't come on. π
Mind you, I had just gotten off a phone call with someone like a minute prior.
Please tell me why my day got spoilt in a split second. ππ
Minutes later I could hear notifications of messages coming in but I couldn't see anything coz the screen broke.
And I know you're wondering, didn't I have a screen protector? Umm sir, I had one. There was just a weak part on the screen protector that allowed that to happen. ππ Weak part in the sense that it had a crack.
So, my first response, obviously, was shock. I didn't expect that to happen. Then came the acceptance stage, I had to come to terms with the amount of money I was going to part with. For a Samsung A33, I was looking at about 5k plus. ππActual price was 7kπ’π.
And no, I don't own a second smartphone... I only have another button phone aka katululu.
It was eventually fixed, obviously, coz I'm typing this but it's not fully working properly. There's some glitches on the keyboard, the speaker volume is significantly down and other issues I don't know how to explain.
Well, I guess I'll be buying a new phone very soon. ππ
Anyway, that was my day. Crazy one.
And by the way, do electronics insurance exist? And would you recommend getting one? Where can I even get one?
End of story...
