    I’m a “If I don’t do it when I think about it, it’s not getting done” kind of person, so I like being able to do EVERYTHING on my phone, because it’s always in reach when I need to accomplish something.

    That being said, I HATE downloading apps and creating accounts to do simple one-off tasks.

    Last week we went out to dinner for our anniversary, and there was a QR code to pay the bill. I think, “Cool, I don’t have to wait for the server to take it.” So, I scam the code. It leads me to an app download. Ugh. Fine. I’ll wait for this to download. Once I open it, it prompts me to create an account.

    I immediately uninstall, and wait for the server to take, run and return my credit card.
