I have had one wife contact me (in my career) asking why her husband has so many calls on his phone logged to me. Fortunately for him I can think on the fly and answered that "perhaps he was the contact person that I had to speak with regarding a special project, I really do not know exactly, but that is most likley since I work for an contractual agency." She pushed on..."What is the name of the Agency"? "Savaay Inc." I replied. "And what is it you do?" "A number of things. This Agency sponsers work for many people who wish to be employed on a contractual basis in all avenues of employment from cake decorators to jet pilots."
The conversation went on a bit longer and I was able to respond calmly to all of her questions.
I now belong to an "800" number group to avoid such suspicion from wives and to make it less likely to be discovered by any one else..
Below are a few ideas to help you AVOID being found out by the little woman.
Please consider:
1. PHONE NUMBERS ON YOUR BILL (1): Avoid ODD phone numbers from appearing on your cell phone bill that your wife can see. Get a TracFone : http://www.tracfone.com - Found at many convenience stores for $15 you can get a cell phone with out a bill or contract. You then purchase minutes to load on your phone. Then keep this phone at the office and don't use it to call your wife.
2. PHONE NUMBERS ON YOUR BILL (2): Stop receiving paper bills. Most cell phone providers offer PAPERLESS billing. Opt in for this feature and use an email address that your wife doesn't have access to.
3. CLEAR YOUR PHONE HISTORY and you COMPUTER HISTORY: Get in the habit of clearing out your phone call history. Most phones have this capability. Some even allow you to remove just the phone numbers you want to clear out of your history. If you must clear your entire history, do it immediately after your done for the day, then make a few phone calls to co-workers and family, this way you have a history in the phone and if the wife looks it doesn't look suspicious like an empty history would appear. AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, CLEAR OUT YOUR TEXT MESSAGES!
4. LEAVE CLEAR INSTRUCTIONS ON VOICEMAIL: Avoid an unwanted call at the wrong time! If you have made some inquiring calls and left a voicemail, be sure to indicate when it is ok to call or text you back.
5. TURN OFF THE PHONE: Avoid an unwanted call at the wrong time! If you have made some inquiring calls during the day turn off your phone or put it on silent before you go in the house.
6. CREDIT / DEBIT CARDS (1): Avoid using your credit card of debit card. This is a paper trail.
7. CREDIT / DEBIT CARDS (2): If you must use a card, stop receiving paper bills. Most credit cards offer PAPERLESS billing. Opt in for this feature and use an email address that your wife doesn't have access to.
8. CREDIT / DEBIT CARDS (3): Opt for a Visa Gift card or a Green Dot Money PackYou can find these at many convenience stores. You must pay cash for them. When you go shopping at store you normally shop buy one and throw away the receipt. This way it won't stand out on your bank statement.
9. CREDIT / DEBIT CARDS (4): Get an EPassport card - https://www.epassporte.com/ - You can get these online and charge them up from your bank account. There's no paper statement from E-Passport and you can use this as an ATM card or a credit card.
10. PAPER TRAILS: Get a PO Box - these are fairly inexpensive. Then you can send your bills you do not want her to see to this PO Box.
