How do you all manage personal and business phones? My new company wont let me use my personal phone as business phone, but a) I don't want to loose my number and b) I dont want to pay for a plan...

I think the answer is you carry two phones

I’ve carried two for 9 years. Love it

...what are some good strategies to manage this? E.g. port my personal number to GVoice and forward it to my business phone?

Check out some prepaid/pay as you go plans to put your personal on if you don’t use it much

Get over it. Change your number. Just use one single phone. Much easier.

Thanks all, some very different perspectives here.
So is there nobody who used just one phone but ported their personal number to Google Voice and forwarded it to their corp number?

Hello,

Currently, in accenture. I have had very bad billable hours and not much achievement this fiscal year. I am worried of getting fired, so i applied for another job. Got offered may be 5% above my current pay with 5k bonus, but in lower level at Deloitte. I think working lower level will give me more opportunities to learn as i think i have lot to learn. I made decision based on my gut and accepted the offer. I have not talked to anyone on accenture side yet. What you think?
