No Please
Down with tradition—on with
efficiency, According to the Bell
Telephone Company, many of
the traditional courtesies we now
use in telephone conversation
are not only unnecessary but in
efficient. We aim to please and
“please” it shall be no more.
For it appears that this please
habit proves only confusing to
the operators. Just this week in
placing an out-of-town call, we
gave the number, as instructed,
adding the usual “please”.
Presently, the operator called
back with a message that the line
was busy and she’d try again.
And she did, twice again in the
space of two hours before the
