Transcript

My aunt from Orlando Florida asked me to refresh her iPhone 16 for free because family shouldn't charge family. I told her, this one's still $230. You're charging after every single thing I've done for you growing up. I told her, this is exactly everything I have now and I'm not stopping for anyone. She said, your mother is going to hear about this the second I leave. I said, tell her I said hi. Follow along right now because I'm chasing 50,000 followers and the ending of this one is not what you're expecting. She sat there the entire time, arms crossed, clearly annoyed, rehearsing to tell my mom on the drive home. Battery replaced, screen restored, camera lens polished, port cleaned out, corrosion removed by hand, full software reset completed before I called it done. By the end, her phone ran like brand new. Screen, battery, everything working perfectly again like the day she bought it. I handed her the invoice. She stared at it, then reached into her purse without saying a single word. If you enjoy these type of videos, make sure to follow now because I'm not stopping until I hit 50,000 followers. Comment which state you're from.
