One of the most salient features of our Tech Hiring culture is that there is so much bullshit. Everyone knows this. Each of us contributes his share. But we tend to take the situation for granted.
Many people don't realise how anxious a mobile phone can make one. Always looking to expect a reply to a Whats App or a call etc can be distracting. Having an old phone with no sim card for playing music only; is also awesome. but a genuine mp3 player is the bomb-diggity.

I'm a friendly, non-dev, cisgender guy from NC who enjoys playing music/making noise, hiking, eating veggies, and hanging out with my best friend/wife + our 3 kitties + 1 greyhound.
The ipod !
I bought a mp3 player for 50€ and that's easily the best 50€ I spent since ages.
And without music, life would be a mistake

Yep, unbundle your smartphone for more calm in your life
mp3 player + reading device like an Amazon Kindle
Wait a minute now, you gotta go with the Zune. Nothing beats that little beautiful brown machine.
Plus, that way when we meet up in person, we can swap a few tunes! 😀
