My 10 was really laggy no matter now many times I restored it. My 13 doesn't always charge on my wireless pad. It didn't last night and I woke up to a dead phone.

The only issue I have is the carrier's fault not the phone. In or company's wisdom they decided to go with Bell which has very poor coverage in our area.
My phone is in an Otterbox so I have to get the positioning just right on a wireless pad. Once positioned though it always is fine.

We both had S4's. They were great little phones! We gave one to the oldest grand daughter and kept one for back up when we got our Note7's. Same thing when we got the Note9's and again when the wife bought her Note20 Ultra. Tip: ALWAYS keep one old phone for back up.

The weather doesn't bother me, I am just tired of going. It is a week of standing for 10 hours, talking to customers, being stuck with coworkers that you may or may not get along with. Going to dinners with customers and vendors. All while work that needs done just piles up at home.

Trade show trips were prized assignments at the first place I worked. I never got to go to one in 8 years there...

There are fun moments, but it just gets old. Some customers and vendors are fun to hang out with. One of my buddies I work with used to go too and we would have a good time together. In 2019 we got done tearing our booth down early (it is 25x50 all snap together garage flooring) and we went to Universal studios the rest of the day and paid for it on the company card

We try to go out to top golf and go race go karts but the days are so long. Get up at 6, get there early. Stand and talk for 10 hours. Go to dinner. Go out and maybe do an activity, Hope to get to bed by 1am, start over. This will be my 9th time doing this particular one and I am just over it. If it was a 3 day show and a day for setup and then a day for tear down with a travel day on each end it would be better, but it is 5 days of this show. We decided to fly out after tearing down but is still 8 days out and I don't have the luxury of being able to take some comp days after.

Yep.

Setting the clocks back cost me $536. I bumped the black chicken while hanging the big round clock back up. The chicken fell and pecked the screen on my 55" TV causing it to have giant rainbow bars down the middle. So a quick trip to Costco and now I have a 65" downstairs.

More like his big, hard, black pecker caused rainbows to appear.
