It'd be a good idea!
I'm still not quite in the mood to ramble about what I did yesterday (though it's honestly not much, just some Rubyverse martial arts stuff), but I do want to give a report.
Good news!
I got my phone back, and my shirt back.
Bad news!
In spite of the phone being plugged in, as in. The phone was IN A CHARGER. And SAID IT WAS BEING CHARGED. As in it quite literally had the charging message displaying, in multiple fashions.
...It died.
My phone.
Which said it had over half of its battery.
Which said that it was CHARGING on that over half of its battery.
Which was well enough for me to clock in using it.
...Died.
Before I could clock out.
As in.
It was plugged in and said it was charging at over 50% battery and I used it.
And exactly three hours later it was dead.
This is something which should not have happened--the phone was plugged into an outlet which has, historically speaking, proven it's more reliable than the one at home. In other words. Charging my phone there overnight (what happened accidentally) should have been the place where it was least likely to have that happened.
...It happened anyway.
Which is something that ticks me off since if it happened there then it would have also happened at home, making literally no difference at all. I'd clock in, plug the phone in, and find it dead so I'd be unable to clock out.
I did get a new phone screen though!
Fat load of good a phone screen protector does when the phone you're protecting is dead, buthey. At least in theory it'll help protect against smears and debris like sand or other such similar things.
