What if I don’t want to bring my god damn phone with me everywhere I go?

One day, I decided to not bring my phone when going out. What happened that day:

  1. I lost my debit card (I was too used to using cardless withdrawals from the ATM and forgot my card)
  2. My car picked a good time to break down in the middle of nowhere so it took me 6 hours before having a car passing by so I could get my car towed.

It’s a miracle I didn’t get murdered by a passing serial killer.

Not to be insulting: You’ll be in the minority. Most larger cities have moved to this style in newer restaurants and many older ones since covid

Not that that doesn’t suck because poor/homeless folks often cant afford or have a way to have a smartphone and keep it charged so no restaurants for them unless they take cash
