So remember last week, AT&T had that big outage?

Oh yeah, I kind of heard about it.

You thought it was like 6 billion people.

Well, I thought it was a legitimate big deal, but it turns out it was only 70,000 people.

Yeah, it wasn't that big of a deal.

So we were sitting at, I was sitting at my other job to host a radio show here in Phoenix for our heart radio. And one of my coworkers got a text message from

AT&T saying we're so sorry. They are so sorry for the outage. In any inconvenience that it has caused

you, we got you. Yeah, they're going to give you five bucks. Five bucks. Yeah, five bucks. And it's not

$5 per phone number. It's five dollars per account oh is it

yeah so if you have like six numbers or a family plan no you're only getting one five you can share amongst

the family uh the CEO says this is not our first network outage and it won't be our last great

that's super confidence in your technology.

I know. I thought that was really great. He said it's the reality of our business.

Oh, okay. Five bucks. Five bucks. Here's your link and get out of here, kid. I just think,

what can you buy for $5? Nothing. Literally nothing. You can't even buy $4 with $5.

You can buy a bottle of water. Well, maybe. Not Evian. No. Or smart water. I mean, I've

seen smart water for around three bucks. So yeah, I guess you can get a bottle of water. That's it.
