And if my phone ever rings it will startle me and I might reflexively toss it away.

There was a time in my life, working retail and later grad school, when the only reason my phone would ring was a lab emergency, a meeting I was supposed to be at but wasn't, or someone calling out and the store needing a "key" to cover the shifts.

Despite years of detachment from this time, I get legitimate anxiety whenever my phone rings.

Try working in a call centre for 6 years. The beep of a connecting call is the worst sound.
