[QUOTE="UpstateNYUPSer(Ret), post: 1214300, member: 12570"] We had a driver fired for talking for an extended period of time while on his cell phone. The center manager and on-car were in the same car following him. He was on his cell phone while making deliveries and when he started his pickups. The driver got his job back after a few days off ("time served") but it did act as a wake-up call. I saw our air driver on his cell phone while I was on my way in to work the other day. Is there really any reason to be on our cell phones while we are driving? As for you questions: A) I absolutely agree with this. B) I absolutely disagree with this unless the phone call is an extended one. Safely pulling over to the side of the road to take a quick phone call is not that big of a deal. [/QUOTE]
