text: You letting us use our phones can be one of the best things you can do. Mostly because how many kids do you think get sent down to your office because the got caught using their phone during class? 20,25, or about 10 students a day is the answer. How many minutes do you waste lecturing them about why it is wrong and then you give them a referral? i would estimate around 5 minutes for each one that would mean you have just wasted more than 1 hours a day just lecturing them about using their phones. that's a lot of time being wasted. Now for you this is time that could have been used to do your work or file papers. Know image yourself that you didn't have that problem you would finish your work early, focus on other things you had in mind and maybe finish work that was due next week . Now that would mean more work time, more you time, and of course more relaxation.
