Where do you put your phone

[treebloke]

Everyone has a mobile phone and because ours is quite a demanding and physical job its not always practical to keep your phone in your pocket. If you leave it in the truck you can't hear it ring and obviously you need to answer it because it might be for you!.

 

I find the best place is a breast pocket as its out of the way when carrying logs or brash and its the nearest your going to get to your ear. I have a couple of fleeces with them but cannot find anymore.

 

I dont like pouches that go on your belt as I find these also get in the way.

 

So does anyone know who does fleeces (but not jacket) with a breast pocket. I need about 15/20.

And me! The phone gets chucked in the door pocket of the van, and gets looked at, as and when.

Mine stays in the truck and gets checked periodically when convenient, Personally I cant fathom why people need their phones on them all the time, answer phones/voice mail was invented for a reason, I always get back to people asap, usually within the hour unless its "one of those days"

 

from my experience the people that don't leave a message (but I phone them back anyway) are 9 times out of 10, are time wasters.

Surely anyone expecting an arb to answer their phone immediately during working hours is a bit of a phallus?

I try and answer mine, the fact is people decide they are getting a job done, they look on tinternet and start ringing companies, the first one to answer in many cases gets the job. Some will always want 3 quotes, but many just want a hassle free life, if you son=und ok and are a "can do" kind of chap chances are you'll get the job.

 

I keep mine in my thigh pocket and I have a krussell flip cover for it....
