Artaud almost sounds like a "kindred spirit" I don't own a cell phone and
never have, don't do META (Facebook), X (Tweeter) Tik Tok (As I have some nice clocks already.
) etc. etc.
In my two tours at COMSUBGRU TEN (1989-92 (Plankowner)/1998-2002) OPCON.
I was a
SEAC my first tour armed with a pager and STU-III phone on my nightstand with a "
nifty" and ever-changing hiding place for my key with a
40-minute recall to get to the OPCON after I hung up or responded to a page. If say I went to Jacksonville, Fl (30-40 minutes away.) for a movie or a meal I had to notify the OPCON watch what movie and time we were going too along with the manager's office phone number as a backup.
On my second tour I moved up in the world and reported in and met my departing Division Officer (LCDR.) who had to come up with a unique job title specific to my past and current new responsibilities and was after a couple of minutes of deliberation I became the
COMSUBLANT Alt Supervisor "Lofty Title" indeed that again promised long hours and no increase in pay commensurate with my "
Lofty Title". I was introduced to my work Cell Phone and given another STU-III to again add to the decor of my bedroom nightstand.
I can assure you beyond a certain political ad from 2016 "
Who do you want to answer the phone at 3 in the morning? " I can assure you most of them came to me at 0300 and all the other hours that started with a "
0".
The STU-III was a pretty impressive piece of technology, but it had the added benefit that if I "
whacked" someone who broke into the house with it they wouldn't be leaving the house on their own two feet.
It's absolutely
WONDERFUL to be "
Cell Free".
