I have that same issue with direct employees. I reprimanded and put on probation a guy who was constantly on his phone or in the parking lot smoking cigarettes AND on his cell phone. He got a little better for the month, then slipped back into his old ways. Was ready to fire him 2 wks ago when he quit.
