Archived Anyone else pick up the habit of twirling your PDA around

[Kompa]

All the brtm in my store do it. It isn't a problem but these guys toss these things up like 12 feet in the air like acrobats or something. I do it too. I can't seem to stop it now >.>

 

[Produce Queen]

Yea I ride the flats like scooters around the race tracks too. While we're open.

Seriously why do you post something like that? Just looking for reactions?

Pallet jacks make great scooters.

That's why pda's get broken. If I saw you doing that, I would have chat with you about safety & equipment use.

 

[SnorlaxTM]

Nope I'm just clumsy and drop it without even trying to perform a trick.

So you not only don't care about your other team members, but you don't care about the store's expensive equipment either. Nice.

 

[asidius]

When I'm bored I'll throw a pda 2 feet in the air and catch it, but I'm not going to see how high I can throw it without breaking it. PDAs are already a rare natural resource in my store as is.

This is why we can't have nice things...

That's instant termination in my store.

I care.

Which is why I catch it

Throw a PDA up in the air 12 feet? Better catch it or get out of the way. Target sucks but don't fuck with the equipment. Target's bosses are greedy cheap asses and when you break a PDA, they aren't going to fork out the money to replace or fix it. The cheap ass stl at my store has bitched me out over the costs of the walkie talkies and PDAs.

Our team already broke out all the glass in the PDAs that cover the laser because they fog up in the freezer. I think management doesn't even care at my store anymore

Good times.

We had three of those last year. I threatened to cut myself accidentally on purpose enough they finally sent them out.

Why? The ones without the glass actually work better

Ever stick your finger in on accident? Alcohol isn't enough to clean that cut...Who knows what shit is in those internal parts...

 

[brizzy93]

I never toss them in the air, but I'll twirl it in my hand by the handle. I guess I picked that up from BR lol.

Yes it's much easier to use PDA without glass on laser to back stock in freezer.

No lol. Why put your finger there lol

 

[Firefox]

I don't twirl it around, but I'm clumsy and drop it frequently.

 

[MrGeppetto]

I like to pretend their stormtrooper blasters.
and When I have two.

Cause you can't feel your fingers from being in said freezer for hours and are trying not to drop it. It's also horrible for the laser assembly to have it open.

 

[mrknownothing]

I dropped a PDA from the top of the WAVe once. Somehow, it didn't break. Of course, if it had been a MyDevice, I would be as much of a goner as the MyDevice in question.

Not as good as the Crown stacker. Nothing beats being palletized and STOed at the top of the steel.

Thread is over. This post won.

I never drop my PDA, but sometimes my PDA tries to commit suicide by leaping out of my hands.

Can you blame it? Would *you* want to be equipment at a Target store?
