Popular Post Lady Florida. Posted December 25, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 25, 2021 You know the cliche of retiring and getting a gold watch from the company? Well, it's not gold and it's not from the company but I gave dh a watch for Christmas because he's retiring in 6 days. Why is this a big deal? It's a smart watch. All of his adult life he worked in a secure government building. When beepers came out he wasn't allowed to take his to work. When cell phones became a common thing, especially smart phones, he couldn't bring his inside the building. He could leave it in the car or put it in a special locker. You can't wear smart watches in the building either. Nothing that can transmit or receive is allowed, not even a Kindle ereader! He took vacation so he really only has one more day of work - Dec. 29th - when he'll go turn in his badge, give them his passwords, and process out. He can't wear his watch that day but otherwise he now can actually use a smart watch. He's currently setting it up and charging it so he can wear it today. 😍 54 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
