Under ncvernel condition! a e-rrtain portion of each telephone switchboard is held in re-serve. When sudden and heaw
?"errands 'or errv.oe art?ie, howver, the vacant " posit-.or.v'' as they are called, are at once filled by leserve operatwi
ro that calls ran be handled on a "no-delay" basis, without rnterrupuon of service or iocoovenience to subsenbers.
PromptTelephone Service
?Under All Conditions
TO INSURE rapid telephone communication in New York City
at all times, we must be prepared to handle the fluctuating
volume of traffic that is created by varying conditions. We
must be prepared for the unexpected as well as for the usual.
Each day we have our busy hours and our slack hours. For
instance, in one of our exchanges we handle nearly 17,000 calls
between 10.00 A.M. and 11.00 A.M. In the same exchange we
handle 5,000 calls between 5.00 P.M. and 6.00 P. M. To meet these
expected fluctuations is part of our daily work.
But we must be prepared also to meet unusual conditions and
emergencies. Unexpected storms, large fires or accidents, extremely
hot or cold days, make sudden and heavy demands upon the system.
Yet, in such cases, so efficiently is the service rendered, that there is
practically no delay. The service is so prompt under all conditions,
that the subscriber never realizes how heavy may be the demands
upon the service.
On the day before last Christmas a very heavy snowstorm
came most unexpectedly. Telephone calls in the city increased 50^,
or from 2,000,000 to 3,000,000 in one day, yet we furnished service
practically without delay, and made it possible for telephone users all
over the city to avoid personal trips through sleet and snow in carry?
ing on their social and business affairs.
By arranging our operating loads, by keeping reserve
apparatus in readiness and a reserve force within call,
we meet all emergencies promptly and efficiently.
It is all in our plan of giving to New York City
"The Best Telephone Service in the World."
