I know Lemmy is gonna say “stop being addicted to your phone” but like I’m asking this question with more of a like “fuck corporate” attitude. I mean like, just a quick peak at an internet thread, wikipedia, news, memes, etc. Maybe messages or group chats… Just an occasion glance every like 15 minutes or so to keep yourself sane, like a little drip of dopamine to get you through the day, you know.
Or is a smartwatch hidden under long sleeves better?
Or like… is text to voice better? (Like with a hidden earbud hidden under some wigs to listen to the text, while the other ear can still can have awareness of surroundings?)
The calls are good. You want those.
I get calls from different depts, and I quickly fix their issues, and as opposed to someone who only interacted with their own dept, I’ve got people all over the organization thinking “Yeah, I know rhynoplaz, he’s really friendly and helpful!”
Of course I do. That’s what gets me paid, nowadays.
The only difference being that I did put the effort to make others understand my work (and more than how much I needed to).
It’s just that they still find it much more convenient to call me, get me to do the work and then copy it all into their project (which would then require changes), rather making the whole algorithm themselves.
