The irony of having a world spanning device in my hands, and freely ignoring everyone who calls me is ripe. I think of my phone as a device for me to use, not others to use to reach me. My voicemail message instructs people to hang up and text me.

And now I’m supposed to cold call people at work?

Yeah no.

While my coworkers make their sales dials, I continue to network online and via email. They dont understand how I generate pipeline for the software I sell. But I know - ain’t no one going to be interested in a sales call.
