Feckin batteries
Why the fuck can't the batteries in my cordless phone (land-line) be designed to not only last ages (which is good), but also NOT always run out of power at 2:30 in the dead of night? Is that the price I must pay for good battery life? I swear that not once in the time I have had these phones (about 4 years) have they ever run out during the day. Not once.Last night:
*BEEP-BEEEEEEEP*
(long silence)
*BEEP-BEEEEEEEP*
*sleepy grunt*
(long pause)
*BEEP-BEEEEEEEP*
"For FUCKS sake!" (say out loud without moving your mouth much, hardly at all, for a realistic representation as to the sound)
*stomp* *stomp* *stomp* *stomp* *stomp*
*BEEP-BEEEEEEEP*
"Where the FUCK is it?"
*BEEP-BEEEEEEEP*
(fumble on sofa)
*BEEP-BEE.......*
*clatter as phone goes into charger*
"Fucking thing"
*stomp* *stomp* *stomp* *stomp* *stomp*
*gaflump* into bed
(sigh)
I swear a lot when I have been woken up, it appears.

Weird Sosu? I don't know of one single phone that doesn't do that. I have the same problem with my cell phone. It has this annoyingly dejected "cluck-eeep" of an electrical hiccup that it keeps aurally pissing out at oh yes - night.

Get yerself organised and always put it in the charger before you go to bed.
