    I have told managers, to their faces, I do not have a smart phone… While holding my smart phone.

    So far, while most have quite noticeably glanced at my phone, none have actually called me out on it.

    If any of them ever do, I will just get a prepaid flip phone and use that for work.

      I’ve just straight up told an employer before that if a smart phone was required to do my job then they needed to provide me a company phone.

      they found other options for me, but it really pissed off my supervisor. eventually i left because he was an asshole. gave them a -1 day notice and just stopped showing up. i do freelance work now. they deserved that hit.
