So they keypad doesn't have a GREEN answer button? All the RAZRs I've seen have one....heck, all the cell phones I've seen had a green answer button. Those DD employees must be really smart to figure that one out.

hows your relationship with the coworker who picked up the phone for you...have you ever pissed him off...maybe he secretly hates you and thinks you are a forgetful prick that wastes his time on internet forums and decided to run your phone over a few times before handing it to you knowing that you would blame DD.....

Normally I wouldnt complain, I'd say it was my fault and such, but I've been going to this dunkin donuts for months now and the people there are careless in there work. This place is not very well maintained, and I wouldnt put it past them if they did find it and then someone accidently stepped on it or dropped something on it or something like that. I'm not saying someone intentionally started stomping on it, I'm saying I believe the carelessness of the staff at that place most likely contributed to the condition my phone is in.

Tomorrow I plan on going in there and asking them where the phone was found.. sure, its possible a customer did something to it but I think a $250 phone is worth at least a little investigating.


And yes, there's such thing as phone insurance. Cingular offers it for something like $5/mo, and they will replace a phone no questions asked. I've never had a problem with losing or breaking a phone in the past, so I just decided it was a waste of money.

you're an idiot. next time, don't buy a $250 POS and then leave it laying like its the piece of garbage it is.

The truth is we played hockey with the cell phone in the back room. Usually we use stale donuts, but we couldn't resist giving the Wayne Gretzky treatment to that sexy hard shiny cell phone. Especially from Mr. You Damn Idiots I Need More My Sugar In My Coffee 'Cause The Donuts Ain't Sweet Enough.

We were thinking of battering up the phone and giving it a real Dunkin' Donuts deep fry, but we wouldn't be able to use the "gee, we didn't do nuthin' with your cell phone, mister" excuse.

Anyway, it wasn't until the next day that we realized that a surveilence camera caught our hockey hijinks for posterity. We made a copy of the tape and have been playing it back over and over and laughing our butts off each time we go in the back room for a break.

This is just too funny to keep to ourselves. I'm going to post the video on YouTube. He shoots! He scores!
Nice first post! :laugh:

I'm always very polite with them, more often than not I'll usually put my change in the tip jar for them as well. Never yelled at them for forgetting my sugar either, I've just learned to grab a few packets on my way out. And to all those who assumed I like coffee with my sugar, not the case. I'm sure lots of you like the taste of your coffee black, but I for one do not.

I still dont see how my phone could have made it onto the floor to be kicked around by customers or anything like that. I'm still convinced it was one of the employees. I'm NOT trying to say they did it on purpose to spite me in any way, it probably WAS an accident if it happened the way I think it did. But accident or not, my phone is still busted.

I'm not going to try to get any money out of them, not going to go to the police or any stupid stuff like that. The other day I was fuming mad and being quite irrational because money doesnt grow on trees for me and it was quite a kick between the legs to see what happened.

It was my fault for leaving it there, and probably just bad luck that it was returned in that condition. And believe me, this will definitely be a learning experience for me and hopefully my dumb ass can keep this from happening again.


And to all those who flamed me, claimed they were perfect and just gave me nothing but a hard time, well fvck you guys.

NO ONE FVCKING CLAIMED they were perfect. :roll:

just most of us agree that your anger is misplaced and that you are a whiny b1tch.

that doesnt come ANYWHERE close to claiming perfection.

What is the way you think it happened? Your OP doesn't fully explain your theory, and I don't remember whether your follow-ups do.

So today on my way into work I quickly hit Dunkin Donuts for some coffee and went to work in a hurry so i wouldnt end up being late.

So I get to work, and I can't find my phone. I dismiss it as nothing as I left in a hurry this morning and probably forgot it. This all happened around 10:55am.

So around 2:00pm one of my co-workers is on his way into work, stops at the burger king up the street to grab lunch and called my cell to see if I wanted anything. Apparently the people at Dunkin Donuts answered and said something along the lines of "Hello, the person you're trying to call left their phone here" and obviously if they picked up then the phone was working just fine.

So my co-worker drives down to Dunkin's for me and picks it up, I hadn't even realized I left it somewhere.

So he walks in and hands it to me, I open it up and the screen on my 2 week old razr is cracked in half and only the upper left hand corner of the screen displays anything. I flip it over (not realizing it was cracked yet) and take the battery out thinking it was a software bug and just needed to be restarted. When taking the backplate off I noticed a LOT of dents that were NOT there this morning.

I swear to god it looks like someone was dancing on the fvcking thing. I walked in there with my phone in MINT condition, it's there for a little over 3hrs and it comes back looking like someone had run it the fvck over!

So after I got out of work today I went back to Dunkin's and talked to the asst. manager. I explain the fact that I had left my phone on the counter (which I know I did, realized later that I walked in with it in my hand) and it came back to me all fvcked the hell up. He then proceeded to say that all they do is hold onto the stuff until the person comes back for it. I told him that this thing was looking brand new when I came in and he accused ME of breaking the screen and said if I didn't have any proof that it was working when I came in that he couldnt do anything about it.

WTF!!!

I really wonder how it got broken, if someone answered a call while it was there they either A) had to know exactly which key to press to answer the call, or B) it was working just fine. I dont have "open to answer" enabled, and you always have to press "accept" to take a call.

Tomorrow I'm gunna go back and chew out the day manager there and see if I can get a straight answer (keep in mind I never once raised my voice when talking to the asst., no need for that).

I know it was my fault for leaving it there, but how in the living sam fvcking hill does my phone get fvcked retarded in a 3 hour period of time?!

I'm not expecting them to do anything there or get anywhere with them, most of them don't even speak fvcking english.. I just want to bother them at this point for all the trouble they've caused me.


After a long freakin post.. Anyone have any idea as to how I can get this taken care of?


Of course, I dont have phone insurance because that's usually a waste of money.

dude id be pissed off too but you have no argument... even if (unlikely) sume dumbass at DD did wreck your phone just for kicks he wouldn't own up to it and ultimately its not DDs fault... since you cant prove anything you're wrong!
get over it... buy a new phone or something

OP, the first thing you should do is carefully type out your entire whiiiiiiine and post it on ATOT. The helpful replies you receive should instantly put you in a better mood.

What I find more distubing than this whole phone drama is the fact that you keep frequenting an establishment staffed with employees that you hold in such high regard. :roll:

I think the OP should probably take a vacation for publicly admitting the intention of defrauding his phone carrier.

fat? to hell with you, im 18, 5'9" and weigh 135lbs..

Oblivious moron? sure, i have my moments.

Okay, so you are a dumb skinny kid instead?

Why does an 18 year old need a $250 phone?

Trying to impress Lisa in your Poetry class? Next time leave your phone in da car or your pocket. Better yet, get the bluetooth ear piece so everyone will know how much of a nut sac you really are.

This reminds me, I didn't really sleep last night and I kinda want to go to DD for some coffee. I think I will actually. Hopefully I won't be an idiot and leave my phone on the counter.

3. It's DD's fault.

That about it?

Sorry, I forgot to be a vile little puss pocket like you. WTF! Fvcking A!
