So, I carry a Galaxy S4 that they gave me at work (phone, pages, and for fast answers to email) and a OnePlus One for myself. I treat the Galaxy like ****.

These pretty much sums it up for me. I could BYOD, but they wouldn't kick in for my bill, and it would get more expensive (I am a minimum-usage kind of guy, and pay $35 a month for TWO smart phones). Also, I wouldn't be able to toss my work phone in a drawer or leave it at home on vacation.

As I am no longer on call with my new job, I'm back to being a one-phone guy.
