it wouldn't be such a big deal if he were the type to do it often
but most of the time he doesn't give a shit, so when he does say something you know he's doing it just to be a dick
and so therefore I act like he's being a dick

So your boss is saying you've got to keep your phone in your car, rather than on you.
Why would he want to do that - more to the point, has he told everyone else to do the same?

It's a general rule, not to use your phone during work hours.
It's just interesting that he's NEVER asked if I had my phone on me, he's told the other boss and the other boss has yelled at me when I did it once...about a year ago.
But he specifically asked, today, if I had my phone on me.

Sounds like a bent rule to me.
Fair enough if you worked with loads of really sensitive equipment, but to check the odd text message is hardly a crime.

I'll bet you waste more time on the Internet than you would do with your phone.

that's true
but it's less of the rule and more of the fact that he's just being a dick
he ought to get a grip on life

You need to make his life a misery K.
I'm not sure how you'll manage that, but you need to do it. And do it today.
