Pagers are the worst

Funny. . . but my pager I had way-back-when ran off of a single AA cell. LOL!

Back in the mid 2000s the Lithium Ion battery failure rate was one in 6 million to 8 million per year. It improved due to using purer materials and better manufacturing.

True story, 1995.
They would page the bajepus out of me, what have we got done? where are we at?

I was exhausted with it, hell,I am just calling yall back every minute, nothing has been done.

One day the site manager ripped me for not answering a page (I had left the thing on the nightstand one time in mylife and it was that day)

Why did you not respond?
I said “you see that porta potty over there in the desert? I was taking a crap and it slipped off my belt. I aint going after it, are you going after it?”

No leash ever again
