I gave 2 cel phones. 1 is my work phone and has my cel# I was assigned in thr nextel 90's. It is a Samsung X Cover Pro which is the latest Samsung Active phone. Meaning it is shockproof and waterproof.

My friends and family phone is a Samsung S20FE on the Tmobile network.

Why 2 phones?

A. My work number leaked out to so many customers that think I am on 24/7 call it was getting annoying. Phone calls at dinner at 8 pm in a restaurant on a Friday night, when I did not answer 5 to 6x calls. Frantic voice-mail and text messages.

That phone now gets shut off at 5pm M-F and all weekend.

B. I need to have data connectivity. My GPS equipment depends on it. When the Verizon network cannot provide data (rare) the Tmobile does.

I have owned my small business since 1996, the beeper and flip phone Era. The advent of data on a cel phone, the ability to manage emails, send files, scan documents all on a cel phone wad a HUGE game changer.

It made the ability to run my company remotely a reality. Untethered me from an office and gave me to ability to work anywhere.

I cannot even begin to describe how much this tech improved my business and made it more efficient.
