My point is that his time there is not simply his free time, he is being paid for it and while perhaps he might decide to do this job even if he weren't paid the fact is that there is an exchange taking place. It appears to me that the issue isn't just the fact that there are rules that one doesn't think make sense, it seems to me that he may in fact simply be bored and that the reason he is finding annoyance in this situation is because of that boredom, that restlessness that needs something to focus on. Since the phone is something he 'not allowed' to do, instead the energy focuses on the next best thing - being annoyed with that which apparently restricts him.
The phone is actually just something which is representative. It is something which means something in each and everyone's life. I think that this situation is a mirror or reflection of something deeper which is going on inside of Jeremy. Perhaps for Jeremy his phone represents a certain connectivity that he feels restricted from when he is not allowed to access it.
My concerns arise from the fact that the focus seems to be on 'regaining power' or 'establishing balance' from one's own standpoint only without consideration for the fact that there are others involved.
Note: Of course, I am just philosophizing, I am not trying to 'pin' Jeremy's experience down or anything, just sharing my thoughts on the situation, right or wrong as they may be.
