Don’t let your BlackBerry stand in the way of love

Don’t let your BlackBerry stand in the way of love


According to a survey undertaken by IBM’s Business Intelligence firm Cognos, loved ones will have to compete with the BlackBerry this Valentine’s day.

42 per cent of the 120 senior manager respondents said being out with their partners will not stop them checking their Blackberry. 25 per cent even admitted they would have to check it secretly.

Most of the senior managers said that they loved their Blackberry. The reason? Because the device allows them to keep constantly up-to-date with important work information such as business reports - something very few spouses would even want to do.

Well Sneak congratulates the senior managers surveyed for all their hard work, but advises them to take another look at the benefits of a healthy work-life balance.
