My boss once announced a strict rule during training. NO phones out during work hours. No exceptions.

A week later, he called me three times during my shift to ask why I didn’t answer his messages. When I finally called back on my break, I said:

Sorry, I was following the no phone no exceptions rule.

He stopped enforcing that rule the next day.
