[QUOTE="raceanoncr, post: 188241, member: 6408"] There are some states and cities that have outlawed cell phone usage [B]unless a handsfree device [/B]is used. OK, home free as far as Bluetooth. But... Art 18, Sec 8 under, again, Radios, states about C.B. radios in [B]all feeder road equipment:[/B] b. Head sets and earphones shall not be allowed. Does that apply to cell phones too? I think when this contract was ratified in '02, that cell phones were not that much of an issue. Does the company expect you to communicate on YOUR cell phone? Does the company provide you with a COMPANY phone? We've got in our personal file a UPS memo that says [B]Cell Phone Use [/B]is banned in all UPS vehicles while moving. Do they ORDER you to use it while moving? Do they expect you to ANSWER while moving? I dunno. You have to answer that. But, again, do not refuse to "work as directed" to risk getting fired or suspended. If it does not violate safety rules, do the task, file later. [/QUOTE]
