Can someone send / share the deli code list? Nostalgic for friends and I.

Feels silly writing this but torn up inside and looking for advice. Have a 7 year old with a late birthday (Oct). He’s always played up in that respect because we put him with his classmates in tee ball onwards.

The tee ball team turned into the same team for coach pitch and then kid pitch. We made our own local travel team. Same kids, same coaches (I assisted) all throughout. They have fun together. Now it’s travel ball only snd getting more serious.

Team is moving up to 9U this Fall season. We show up to EVERY practice / training etc. Perhaps the best attendance and dedication. But he’s clearly the weak link now.

Solid arm but the other kids on the bottom half are accumulating hits and contact and our guy is walking or SO - but he does swing. He hits in practice well enough. In the field he’s in the outfield and seeming kicks daisies and isn’t always baseball ready. Needs to be told what to do when ball in play.

Yes we’ve had talks with him and he says he wants to play with his teammates. But then also questions why kids who don’t show up to everything play more.

We love our teammates. There’s a social aspect. But my wife and I are hurting to see him fall behind. We’re stuck with the decision of pulling him and doing rec for now and losing the friends and opportunity for travel ball or sticking through it with the hit to confidence and investing time and emotion in a “punch up” situation.

Thoughts? What would you do?

I posted earlier today. I observed the outage I am experiencing with VZW is isolated around my area of residence. I drive further away and connect to towers / get signal fine.

I called Verizon (after a wasteful 1.5 hours in chat) and the said "oh there's an issue with your local tower - it'll take at least 48 hours to resolve". I asked what the reimbursement looks like for the time wasted and without service and they offered $10. Insulting.

Anyone ever experience a local tower outage? Is their estimate typically accurate? Have work calls, family to check on, and kids I need to be sure I'm accessible for. How can Verizon operate like this - no notice, no firm resolution, no reimbursement.

Out of nowhere my iPhone switched to SOS / satellite mode. Been this way for 10 minutes as of 3:40pm ET. NYC metro. Anyone else?

Thoughts? Is this a good deal?

I have an iPhone 12 Pro Max. It's hanging on but I need a new phone (space, speed, features). I have the 5G Get More plan but from what I see to get any subsidy from Verizon, I'll need to upgrade my line to a new plan. Is that right?

Anyone have success calling Loyalty / Retention to see if they'd do anything beyond the standard?

If I have account credits on my lines, will they stay?

What about any bundles like Apple Music, Hulu/Diz/ESPN that are covered? Will I have to pay for those now?

What would you do in my situation? Thanks!
