I understand that it may be problematic sometimes but this was very smooth. I didn't even say anything.

A: what's your number for the whatsapp group Me: I don't have whatsapp because of facebook. B: ok, we have to use signal then A: ok

And that was it. Life can be very easy sometimes

Having two phones absolutely sucks. Didn't work for me at all.

I disagree. I absolutely love the fact that I can just turn it off after office hours and throw it in a corner during holidays and weekends. Sure, it's a bit cumbersome to take two phones with you, but it's also cumbersome to take the laptop and everything with you all the time. Just put it in the same bag and you're good. Good to note, my employer provides me with a phone, so I didn't need to buy a second one. It also means that if I switch jobs, I just return the phone and still have my personal device.

But if it doesn't work for you, by all means, don't do it. For me the good outweighs the bad.

I have a second sim card for my phone. I just turn off that sim when I'm not working, and set my status as away for group chat.

In this context, there isn't any tangible benefit to having a second phone.

It's only a minor hassle, lots of people manage it easily

Lots of people do lots of things.
