You can't get rid of Whatsapp.

Very true, but you can also never ever give them your number and then get funny looks from friends, colleagues, and pretty much everyone in the UK.

I for one am proud of getting those funny looks.

Well, some of us need our phones for work, so...

...also not an option.

Kinda need people to be able to reach me. You know, for continuing to survive and stuff.

It is an option, believe me, you're just doing what your employer tells you to.

But they can't force you to use WhatsApp unless you signed a contract of employment stating so? And if you did that the onus falls on you.

No in some cases it's literally not an option.
