velentina @velentina (891) • Mauritius 27 Jun 10

secretagent I generally won't answer my phone during times in which I'm supposed to be working, especially in my line of work - it would be rude. Other times, it'll depend who is calling. I prefer text (SMS) as well - it's discreet and doesn't disrupt my work flow.
