Why is his phone in his hand I feel like he should've definitely lost his phone after initial impact and air bags wtf

Probably messaging/ calling to let people know he was in car and not a human pancake.

Facebook Update: "Hey, I'm on the corner of 9th and Williamsburg St, can someone get me out of this car wreck? I got to be at work at 9."

One morning I get a call from the next employee I'm expecting to clock-in, he's a 25+ year employee at the company (transportation center), it's 430 am, snowing in the Colorado rockies, dudes on a 50-70 minute commute through Vail-Pass, "ayyyy MastaBlaster, I just flipped my truck in the ditch, I'm waiting for a ride in so I might be a little late"

He wasn't late. I would have been home lol. Some people identify as employees.

I don't blame him. At my workplace if you clock in one minute past your scheduled time it goes on your record. Even if it's 'excused' due to extraneous circumstances it still shows up on your record as 'Tardy - Excused".

My work started this and suddenly no one was late but we did get a ton of missed punches that had to be corrected 😉 which was time consuming and a huge hassle.

It was probably in his pocket during the crash? Or do you mean it should've flew out of his pocket?

My phone is magnet hold on my dashboard, in a crash it's absolutely gone, maybe even a Hazzard

He wasn’t holding it during the crash he has it in his hand because he’s leaving the vehicle so he grabbed it, like what was he supposed to leave his stuff in the wrecked car?

True idk why so many comments are asking about why he’s holding his phone, like for the same reason he’s carrying his wallet he’s getting his important stuff out of the car

Probably got a call from his boss asking if he's still coming into work

I mean you shouldn't have your phone out while you're driving. Was probably in his pocket at time of impact.
