Mike, I use this option on a daily basis for my home phone. And if he is away from the location, the number will pop up as the person's phone number. So once again this requires creating contacts and saving them into the phone. The Google voice option that I presented, will solve his problem. Which is to make the work number a contact and assigned it a ringtone, and then he can go into Google voice, and make it so whenever people call him he doesn't see their number he sees his phone number that he's entered into his contacts which will also have that special ringtone. This is what I do to keep my emergency calls and my business calls separate
