Alltel’s been pushing their “My Circle” plan a lot lately. Man, I wish I would have stuck with them! Why did I drop them again… let’s see… oh, I remember! Back when I was with Alltel, this was MY circle:

The shaded area around my store is pretty much the only place my phone got service. Note that UNO, where I went to school, a mere MILE away, dropped calls pretty much consistently (or just didn’t pick them up in the first place). Five “software updates” later, I was told that I needed to buy a new phone – less than a year after I bought my first one. That doesn’t work for me.

But not that it matters… the people I call the most have Verizon anyway, just like me. That’s good enough for my circle!
