The good news: I'm finally getting a company phone yay!

The bad news: this means I'll be on call soon 😅

Sounds actually like bad news :x

Call me if you want to talk about it!

@ThatDude Is that a good thing?

Andi is the german form of Andy.

@ThatDude I always read your name as ThatDude.

Get it? Because... you know... you f*cked up... with your name... and stuff...

Just hope that no clients call you while you are (very) tipsy :P

Bad news: there's no privacy... They could technically watch u 24/7

then that defeats the purpose? free calls related to work?

Yay, Dog leash hurraY

@billgates And how would they do that?

I'm on call for about 4 weeks now. They called me once, and I get a 500€ bonus per month

@linuxxx aren't u the privacy expert... They can sudo access the phone... Just turn on the microphone and camera from their command center

@plusgut so it's trojan news?

@justwellbrock I wouldn't say that, @linuxxx is aware of the danger/implications.
But I see where the analogy is coming from ;)

@billgates And how could they (who is they?) sudo access the phone...?

@linuxxx ur company... Because they own the phone so they have admin rights to it. They can read all your emails, know where you are, what your doing, etc

@linuxxx like this

@billgates Does every company over there have control over their employees' phones...?

Because my company doesn't (most people use their own phones for the company as well but I want to keep work and private separated) :). It just comes with the stock system of that phone directly from the vendor!

@linuxxx oh nice. Our are like locked down, don't install games, don't root, don't wipe the OS, use approved apps only.

Only if they give you one, if it's a personal phone no they can't.

@billgates Oh no I can install what I want haha as long as it's job related :)
