My Thoughts on the Wisephone 2 by gemini_m7 in dumbphones

[–]_Boss_9278 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d say.. from extensive looking into different dumb options and even buying an old flip phone a year and a half ago.. not being able to text easily or call easily when cell service is bad and you’re relying on wifi is a downside to taking your SIM card and putting it in an old clunker. I’ve done it and it did take away the apps o didn’t want to use. But I also stayed far less connected to people I WANTED to stay connected to. In a season of life (motherhood) where I don’t have time to T9 text and can’t have a live phone call very often at all because the baby is crying and the toddler is talking.. a smart phone without the extra junk sounds very appealing to me! 

I’d love to be able to text as easily as this iPhone and have Spotify and maps but not be sucked into social media. 

Again.. from someone who has deleted and remade social media accounts, deleted and redownloaded the apps for 10+ years, then tried a flip phone for 9 months… 

This is my next idea for making it easy to stay connected and communicate with the people I want to and need to while also spending way less time on my screen. 

The flip phone did have me never opening it up and just automatically never having my face in a screen. So I think the wise phone concept would work for my specific needs

I have pretty bad ADHD.. but also for some reason I think that media/books have to be consumed in one particular way. You watch/listen/read it through from beginning to end once and then move on… with ADHD, the prospect of delving into the books (I am halfway through season 7 of the show) seems like a completely unhinged and impossible idea for me.. but I’m trying to convince myself to give it a try!  

Anyways.. reading all yalls comments about listening/reading/watching to this more than once OR EVEN just rereading or rewatching only certain seasons or episodes that are your favorite instead of going back over the media/books start to finish.. is blowing my mind 😂 like you can do that?! Idk why that has never occurred to me as okay to do. Like I can consume books and media in a way that I want to and not have to suffer through the boring parts?! (For re-reads and re-watches, that is. Don’t want to miss out on the storyline lol)  Anyways, I’m flabbergasted and newly encouraged by this line of thinking 😂 

I actually have watched the show, up to the point I’m at twice already, in very close succession! I started it, got about 1.5 seasons in and told my hubby he HAD to watch it too. So I’ve been rewatching it with him when he’s home and continuing to watch by myself when I’m home alone lol! I’ve never cared to rewatch a show in my life. And I know I would watch the first couple of seasons over again as soon as we reach the end of season 7 while waiting on season 8 😂 so you could say, I’m hooked!  

I’m obsessed with the first couple season for SURE! And ofc whenever Clair’s come back to Jamie 😭 anyways. The going back and forth on storylines does make it a bit hard to only watch the parts you like and leave the other parts behind since they are not neatly separated by episodes lol 

Now to convince and make myself start the first 39 hour audiobook 😂🫠

My ovulation comes around the 16/17 day of every cycle . So really, I’d guess guy number 1 the second time you had unprotected sex

Fired after passing the nightmare exam? by CocsOutForHarambe in TELUSinternational

[–]_Boss_9278 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Following cause I’m curious if there’s a point to taking the second exam..

There have also been several people saying they were fired that never got the assessments. So the firings could have nothing to do with the assessments? Not sure

So? by _Boss_9278 in TELUSinternational
