Yeah seems like a request for a work provided phone would fix it. A guy I used to work with bought a burner flip phone when something like this was required and got the company to provide a work phone. After a month or two he would just openly use his normal phone and no one batted an eye.
The Get Down was such a good show with a fun aesthetic. It was about the birth of hip hop but talked a lot about the politics and culture at the time. It lasted 2 seasons on Netflix and somewhat on a cliffhanger for a few characters, and I wish they got another season or two to fully wrap it up.
I'm lucky enough to be able to afford my own car/transportation but I worked at a FedEx Warehouse years ago where most people took the bus. Right around the time I was leaving, they were moving the branch 5 minutes down the road, but across a bridge to another jurisdiction. Busses from the city don't run there because it always gets shot down that it will "cause crime". The country busses aren't that good, but at least it takes people to their jobs. I remember most people were freaking out and planning car pools from the bus stop to the new location. I haven't talked to a lot of people since then, but the few I have seemed to find new jobs.
I thought this was when I was in 4th grade. I would rip up paper under my desk so the janitors would have work and wouldn't get fired. But then I grew up and learned there's other things these positions do. It's like some people stopped growing at a certain age.
I feel like it might be more of the area. St. Charles is the company HQ but a lot of the management and employers comes from the Wright City facility. I was based in STC but would have to go to the WC branch a few times a month and being a born and raised STL city boy, Wright City gave me Deliverance vibes.
Personally I hate St Charles in general, but the Wright City people are in their own little Tucker Carlson world and somehow made STC seem sane. Glad I'm at a job now where I can see the arch and actually have some diversity in my office.
Silicon Valley had a good episode about it. Can't find the exact clip but here is the promo for the episode (slightly NSFW). There's a speaker presentation in it that kinda talks about how porn has pushed technology (to comedic effect).
