> Giving your personal phone number in any business context In US it's become the norm to not issue work device hardware anymore sadly. Some people didn't like carrying 2 devices, and firms like saving $$ so win-win. Nonetheless, I got a few compliance pings when WFH and giving my phone # over work chat to someone to call me. > Inevitable really - and if you wanted any actual response from management, stick your head in their office and ask. If it goes tits up, you are on your own though as inevitably they "dont recall" that conversation. Precisely. I worked for a guy who had a particularly egregiously offensive boss. The big boss would claim to not have read emails, saying "you have to talk to me, you can't just send me an email, how do you know I've read it?" but then when they did things verbally, the guy would be like "I don't recall that conversation, you need to email me". Basically lol nothing matters. Dude got himself a C-suite gig at a competitor, but made sure to fire my boss on his way out because he was a small spiteful man.
