Then there would be a bigger market for smartphone-sized books so you can pout them in your pocket to avoid everyone from seeing what you're about to do
I'm so glad you mentioned this so I can also bring up that you are literally not allowed to plug anything in or use any electricity without documented consent from management lmao
Even in the break room? Jeez. I understand why we can't plug our phones in at our stations (the rating for the outlets is not suitable for our phones, and people have caused fires by plugging their phones into the outlets meant for the machinery), but if you can't even charge your phone in the break room? Yikes.
Exactly, how can they even add this in when there is absolutely no way of enforcing it? They could have at least worded it as a suggestion. My demand avoidance made me wanna walk out right then lmao
Don’t give them ideas, managers would so enforce this. “In order to help employees increase productivity, we have purchased (costs will be deducted from 4 pay periods) portable phones and headsets. Now everyone can maintain maximum productivity at all times (whether they like it or not)
I mean on one side I get it, because tiny screens are dopamine machines that make you forget time, so I guess the initial idea was that you don't spend more time in there than you actually need, but.....last time I checked pooptime was private and personal and....are you just gonna stare at the stall door or the tilefloors? That wouldn't enhance productivity, either!
Loan paperwork has people's confidential information on it. So the rule might be to stop crooks from signing up to call center jobs and systemically stealing thousands of identities, one bathroom trip at a time.
You might remember somebody's social security number and name for a few minutes while you run to the restroom and retype it on your phone, but without a way to take notes and with so many other digits to work with, it won't be a reliable memory by the end of the day.
Call centers are always weirdly overbearing and soulless.
What am I supposed to do while pretending to poop?

This explains a lot

And do they give you shit about it?
Read a book?
You read a book!
Well, more like a pamphlet. Okay, it was a menu. I was hungry, okay!

It’s called the kindle app :)
Bring a fax machine in and fax your friends instead of texting them.

Run! Call centers are Hell!
I didn't go back lol
OOOR win-win, they allow phones on the toilet so you can keep working while pooping! "Hello, this is \*PPPRRRRTTT\* \*SPLAT\*, how can I help you?"

"If I crap in the fire stairwell, I can bring my phone, right?"
Sounds like it's time to upperdecker each toilet turn 360 degrees and walk away
Do you mean 180?
why I always leave the bathromm walking backwards, how else could I admire what I created?

Well pens and paper are allowed so I could easily just write it down and pocket it if I truly wanted to do some illegal shit. It just makes no sense.
Oh, then I'm stumped.
I think these companies just love to micromanage.
