[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 1068161, member: 12508"] Excellent point. At my station, managers regularly call couriers on the road after demanding their cell phone numbers. Bad idea. Also, how many of you are using your cell phones to call Dispatch or more likely, customers, when Dispatch is too busy watching "Gilligan's Island" to answer the phone? Is there ever any mention of compensation for cell phone time [B]you [/B]paid-for? Someone actually brought this up in a meeting one time, and the senior actually said "FedEx has a discount plan for Verizon", and refused to address the subject further. So, the expectation is that you will not only use your own phone, but also rely on it when dispatchers either won't answer the phone, are "too busy" or when you desperately need to contact a shipper or recipient. More free stuff for Fred. Don't do it. If it cannot be handled over the PowerPad then it must not be important. [/QUOTE]
