At home I use Vonage. No one at work as my cell number. And when I leave my office, it does not ring on my cell

At the same time, most of the internal fixed telephone network was dismantled. I think the justified the mobiles business case for a great deal.

Sent: 23 March 2020 14:51 To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: Re: OT: Mandatory Work From Home at my company I don't remember when I observed pagers in US last time, but it was definitely after 2000, maybe 2002 or 2004. Earlier I observed many IT folks equipped with the pager, not the cell phone. Note: it's nothing wrong, it is just a difference which put my attention, like many other things is US. Do you know you have differend curbs and pavements in cities? Not worse, but different ;-) Some of you write about private phone. Well. In Poland it is completely unusual to use private phone for business. Maybe the explanation is (was!) the tariff. Personally I have never had private cell phone. Yes, I use it for private calls, I'm allowed to. In the past (2008, Lehman Bros...) some beancounter wanted to make savings on the calls. After analysis my boss took me to the conversation and obliged me to use the cell phone ...more. Yes, MORE. My monthly bill was approx. 2-3 dollars. Both: private and business calls together. Our company tariff were good. Now I have Samsung S9 which allows to use two SIM cards, however many coworkers still use two phones - private and business. Not to talk about mobile app. developers - some of them have even 8 phones. Back to the topic: it is completely unusual to use private phone for company calls. Rather one gets the phone for that purpose. Mobile phones are quite cheap nowadays. The other difference I observed is company car. My observation is this is popular in Poland and Europe, but not so popular in US. Obviously company car is not so common as comany phone or company laptop.
