Having your personal phone as your business phone has it’s downside. Sometimes, I thought it’s a little funny. Here goes…
Scenario #1
Time: 11:53pm (GMT +8)
Phone rings… *fast and furious intro…* (yes I remixed it myself… my fave ah beng ringtone!)
Me: Hello.
XX: Hi, are you feeeeel-beri? the wedding photographer?
Me: erm… yes. (it’s bloody 11pm! btw, my name is wansheng and i am feeling-berri-pissed now!!)
XX: Are you free on [insert date] to shoot my wedding?
Me: I’m sorry, I’m not available… (but if I have a gun, I want to shoot you now…:s)
XX: Wow… got booked so early?
Me: Yeah… I’m sorry, you called a little too late (on both counts)
XX: Do you have anyone else to recommend?
(Me thinks: yah… 周公 is definitely free to shoot for you.)
Me: You can check with xxx… (but please don’t tell him I asked you to call now)
Scenario #2
Time: 2:57am (GMT +8)
*Ting Dong* (incoming sms)

Not very normal to have people asking “how much you charge” at almost 3am. I don’t offer special services.
Anyway, all these happened awhile ago. I guess, most of us still value that little bit of personal time after work. If one really need to talk business, I would appreciate calls before 9pm. Otherwise, I think emails work really well.
