I'm in the midst of spring cleaning. Actually, we could just call it cleaning because I've been on this quest to de-clutter and organize for what seems like eons now. I'm hitting it all-- there will be nothing left in this house that doesn't serve me, Mr. Jarcy or these two fat cats. Sweaters inherited from my sister's friend that are too tight? Gone. Random notes scattered about on random pieces of paper? Gone. Never used Williams Sonoma yogurt maker? Gone, gone, gone.
I've now moved on to old cell phones. I read somewhere you need to delete all the personal info left in the phone before recycling them off. Yes, alright, makes perfect sense and will do. HOWEVER, this darn thing keeps asking me for a security code in order to delete the contact list. This is where I am stuck. Security code? I used my all-purpose code and it does not work. I've tried a number of combinations, none work. I've looked in the manual--which was no help whatsoever, thank you very much. So now I am left with individually deleting all contacts listed in this phone because it will allow deletion that way. Wait, what???
Which brings me to the point of this rant...
????!!!?!!?! Why let me individually delete numbers but not all of them simultaneously?! That makes no sense whatsoever. Security code needed for mass deletion but not one at a time? Couldn't one accidentally delete one phone number as easily as a batch? And how hard is it to program security code prompt on ALL deletion? One is okay, yeah, go for it. Wanna delete them all one by one? Sure thing! But all in one fell swoop? Woah, hold on here. Well guess what-- There's no point in having SECURITY if there is a breach in security!
Where's my tetris machine? I gotta let off some steam.
