Default Lesson learned regarding my BB

So I work as a bouncer at a dance club for my second job. And last night a customer gives me $10 to use my phone to make a call. Was hesitate at first but said forget it took the money and dialed the number for him cause he couldn't figure out how to use my 9550. After he makes the longest phone call ever. He gives me my phone back and there is weird smudge and dirt marks on it. I go clean the heck out of it and get back to work. Well today I bought some food and used the $$ he gave me and notice there is dried up blood on it. Then I remember the smudge on my phone and realize that it was his blood on my phone. I am so disgusted that I am going to see if I can get it replaced for one the new batch of 9550's with the better screen since I have been having minor screen problem but this just made the decision to replace it final. Sorry for the long post just had to share that.

Umm, why would he have blood on money and your phone is the bigger question. Hope that call don't come back to haunt you...something seems array there.

Oh yuck! Sorry that happened. I don't even like it when the techs in the Verizon store have to handle my BlackBerry (although it doesn't happen often).

I am so careful with my S1; do not let anyone use it. I even wipe handsets at work before I need to pick up a phone call and not at my desk.

I am sorry this happened to you. I hope this is the end of that incident.
