I’ve never seen such inefficient, miserable service. Now, look. I’m an invalid, and I’m very nervous, and I’m not supposed to be annoyed. But if this keeps on much longer—
3rd Operator (a young, sweet type). What seems to be the trouble, madam?
Mrs. Stevenson. Everything’s wrong. The whole world could be murdered for all you people care! And now my phone keeps ringing!
Operator. Yes, madam?
Mrs. Stevenson. Ringing and ringing and ringing every five seconds or so, and when I pick it up
there’s no one there!
Operator. I’m sorry, madam. If you’ll hang up, I’ll test it for you.
Mrs. Stevenson. I don’t want you to test it for me, I want you to put through that call—whatever it is—
at once.
Operator (gently). I’m afraid that’s not possible, madam.
Mrs. Stevenson (storming). Not possible? And why, may I ask?

check whether the call is coming through the system or not—unless the person who is trying to reach
you complains to his particular operator.
