A student in a previous class responded to this Discussion Board assignment with the following comments: " I agree no company, whether big or small, should have to pay employees to be ineffective, but there is a new workforce out there who works harder on looking busy than really being busy or productive. I can’t count how many excessive restroom breaks with cell phones or hiding cell phones next to work stations goes on every day. I have caught people text or take phone calls during work hours, and all they can say is sorry and it was really important. These activities kill production, planning and on time delivery daily in manufacturing facilities." A classmate responded to him saying the company should have a policy "no cell phones during work hours" and have each employee check their phone in to be held except for lunch periods and employee breaks and then checked back in.

Please explain your thoughts on the policy of checking phones in and out and how you would react if your CEO implemented the same policy.
