Give Courteous Attention
When Telephoning
Concentration and courteous
attention given to a telephone con
versation is a mark of respect that
will be appreciated.
Frequent interruptions and re
quests to repeat mar the pleasure of
the talk. Concentrate on what is be
ing said and talk with a smile.
Courtesy is like oil to machinery—
the lack of it will cause friction and
friction in telephone talking is a thing
to be avoided.
fVi*n you Teleph»ng—Smile
