  • 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.



  • I do love seeing that one mocked.

    For those that don’t know the original painting is from a Mormon artist Del Parson. It’s part of his “Red Robe Scandinavian Jesus.” series.

    Mormons were extremely racist theocratic socialist until the anti-communist era of the 1950’s and 60’s. Since then they have pivoted to being extremely anti-socialist as prosperity doctrine has risen, but the racist roots are still going strong.
