OP said "not hired"...it was still a bonehead thing to do but the key is whether he was in orientation or training... Big difference.
Not hired because I was on my phone during training/unloading

Just passing by and RoadRooster Thank this. -
Good thing you weren’t driving. You can say I didn’t know you couldn’t use your phone while unloading. Most companies except probably tankers won’t give it much thought.Tb0n3 Thanks this. -

You have all the attributes of a freight broker, and should consider that path, not a driver.
A) JB is decent company.
B) JB is going to find out, if they haven't already about your last company, and they are going to ask why you left.
C) JB's safety department is slightly more strict than the Gestapo.
But reading your posts, I can already tell that you think you are smarter than most people, or we wouldn't even know you, cause you would have been humbly following procedure at the tank company.
Do yourself a favor, become a freight broker.Maj. Jackhole and Bean Jr. Thank this. -
Pssst, don't tell anybody.
I used to eat a bologna and cheese sandwich
While loading dirty water in my tanker at 2am,
While standing in a foot of mud, in total darkness,
In the middle of nowhere,all by myself in the oilfield.
Please don't tell my boss. -
I don’t understand the need to check a cell. I use mine for Apple Music and audio books, no need to touch it or look at it while on duty.
I check it when I’m done for the day.Numb Thanks this. -
