I think that I've only seen my T's cell phone out once so it's usually in her bag or in her desk. She is so very professional that I can not ever imagine her answering it and I'm sure that if she had some family emergency going on that she would tell me ahead of time but in 2 years, this has never happened. My Pdoc, has her phone on her desk but it must be on silent as I have never noticed it doing anything. Pdoc once did show me a couple of pics of her new baby from her phone, but that's it.
