card. With this method the
operator can do it faster if
you. give her the information in this order: (1) Area code and number you’re
calling; (2) any special instructions; and (3), when
she asks, your own number. This way it’s possible to
start your call right after step (1) and can save time
in completing your operator handled calls.
