Smartphones have really changed how people work now. When I was working in an office in the 90's I would have to say that communication was definitely not as good as it is now. If someone was gone from their desk for any period of time, you had no way of contacting them even for a quick question.
My comment goes back just over 30 years ago when phones were not that smart.
