I carried one for years. IT support. Even years later, after no longer using the pager, if I hear a similar sound my heart starts racing faster. I was really Pavloved by that thing.
I used to use an iPhone with. Sonar ping ringtone when I was doing it support. It ruined the tv show Silicon valley for me because Richard Hendricks’ ringtone was the ping and it was giving me panic attacks to watch the show when I heard that characters phone ring

The batteries I use are called Duracell

Anyone still use them?
I had one for nearly a decade up until three years ago when I got a job working from home.
I had that one and a blue translucent one.
My dad at one point needed to wear three pagers on his belt at all times.
Just like that one. 1995.
I didn’t but my dad did. At one point he had both a cell phone and a pager and I remember being aware when he would get a new cell phone. I asked him once when he was getting another new phone and would he also be getting a new pager. He said that when he got a new phone it would probably have a pager built in to it! Mind blown! 1996 was wild, man
I’m not that old.
I am.
i did. still remember the number too!
Oh yeah…booty beeps.
