r
r
The women os'oralon ot the tshv
phone company' hare within tho
last week lodged an unusual-number
of complaints with Manager
Ludden. to the effect that .tbfey, have
been frequently Intuited by sub-
ncrthcrs ana tnat'in many instances
tho language used "over- the, pbone
-i
hus been 'such as would sot,, have
been tolerated' in -the free-and-easy
barrooms ot the long-ago.'
In speaking of Use matter this
morning, Manager LuddenV said that
apparently tho' fact was being over,;
looked ' that Improper conversation
over tho telephone wire was- suf
ficient ground for removing tho
phones of offending subscribers
nnd denying to them any further
use of tho service. I
Tho work of tho telephono op
erator Is never' easy and It U 'made
less so by users who lose their pa
tience when in answer to their calls
the reply Is received' "lino Is busy."
Manager Uiddon says; "If .people
would only stop and think for a
moment thoy would reallte that It
Is far easier for the operator to
switch them onto the lino wanted
than It is ro'r them.' to postpone' the
call by tho statement that 'tho Una
U Imsr'. In the former case the"!
call Is dispose? o? and In the lat
ter It necessitates another call, en
tnlllng Just doublo tho work on, the
operator. It Is logical thoroforo to
concludo that tho oporntor- Is not
voluntarily increasing hor work but
Is simply stating n fac when she
announces tho lino Is busy.'
"Too lrequontly subscribers lose
patlonco w(th tho oporator because
of failure to get their connections
when as a matter ot fact, tho lino
may bo out ot ordor a condition
wblch Is not lnfrcquont, and which
ontalls creator unnoyanco to tho
oporntor than It poslbly cun to the
subscriber."
Manager I.ttddon concludes with
an nppenl that moro patlonce be
oxorclsed with tho tolephone girls
In tho first place because she de
serves It and In 'tho second because
It will Iricruaso tho efficiency ot
the telephone service.
