32 Memes That Reflect People’s Funny Reactions To The AT&T Phone Outage

If you’re an AT&T customer, you’ve likely been affected by the widespread cell outage that left users across the US unable to place calls, text, or access the Internet.
Though the company provided no official reason for the outage, the issue appears to be related to how cellular services hand off calls from one network to the next, a process known as peering, according to CNN.
While Verizon and T-Mobile customers also reported some network outages, they appeared to be less widespread.
The issue began Thursday (February 22) morning. Roughly 11 hours after reports of the outage first emerged, AT&T informed that it had restored service to all affected customers and “sincerely apologized” for the inconvenience.
The company also added that it’s “taking steps to ensure our customers do not experience this again in the future.”
Below, Bored Panda presents 32 memes that creatively capture people's reactions to the situation, ranging from despair to humor.
