It started when the company I worked for had a policy against supplying dual sim phones. I have had my personal number for close to 20 years so I am not letting it up. So I carried two phones. At first I was annoyed but over time I got used to talking on one phone and using the other for notes and reference.
Now that I am self employed having the two phones is a habit with how I work.
I hit the point in my professional life when I just stopped asking for time off.
I started using phrases like “I will be out from July 15th to August 9.”, “I won’t be in that day.”, “Sorry that conflicts with my schedule.”.
For a while I kept getting random calls for stuff while I was on vacation. That’s about the time I started carrying 2 phones. The work phone and laptop got left at home.
It will grow up to be a magnificent steed to ride into battle with. Ask the Mormons about them the next time you see them.
