Back to Basics Telephonically

[Mark]

Hello to everyone,

I read all that with pleasure, it made me feel I'm not alone : I work in a big company where everything is getting more and more connected, they push hard to make us use all those 21st century tools -which I'll use when I really haven't the choice. Outlook is invasive enough !

From the personal point of view : everyone laughs at me when I pull out my 8-year old Nokia 3110c. They forget that it starts in a few seconds, you can type in the PIN code without even looking at it, the battery lasts more than a week (some kind of hp Voyager series spirit...). You guessed it, it isn't switched on 24/24.

And more important, when I'm at lunch with my colleagues, when not eating we... speak to each other, sometimes staring at other people litterally swallowed by their smartphones without even noticing what's going on around them. Sometimes I wonder if they're really happy ... ? But I totally respect their choice.

Just my 2 cents,
Regards,
Marc
