need a cheap fix for boost at work only able to text and thats if I walk around my office to catch a signal.
some stips though:

  • cannot hook up to our computers
  • needs to be cheap
  • I/T cannot find out
  • must go through concrete and rebar
no I'm not housed in a jail but work in one ;)
 
off topic, do you ever just take one of the inmates and beat their ass for the stuff theyve done? if not, you should.

or blame the shitty reception on them and beat their ass for that!
technically you could.....

concrete and rebar are only needed to house the criminals, if there were no criminals there would be no need for the signal blocking rebar and concrete, so in a round-about way its their fault.

Take a sock and fill them with oranges and beat an inmate until you get better reception.

Either that, or *228 and do both options. They usually help. If not, try flashing the Alltel PRL that's floating around. I think on XDA.


EDIT: Oh, the guy above said the same thing. Oops. Sadistic minds think alike.

Or you can just borrow one of their phones. They don't seem to have any problem ordering hits from inside.

so lets see here

no we dont get anything
my office has no windows
dont deal with them too much as i have been here a while
while I chose to use my own phone for work rather then having two phones I cant justify being on it when im supposed to be working

love homie the clown

facebook and all the others are now blocked cause someone was stupid and had pics while in uniform ...you can guess from there

socks are empty cause we cant touch the snacks or we could be taxed for it

think I covered all of you and now i am SOL at work :mad:

Your only choice would be outside of the phone... using Proxy's on your computer at work.

there are tons, they all are not blocked. simple ones like, just google Proxy Site (and dont pick the first ones that show up. lol.

Unblock Facebook Proxy Site

That one is blocked from my work.:mad:

I will agree though that proxys work well once you find one that works.
