Telephone Timesavers



Install telephone jacks all around the house or get a cordless phone so that you can talk wherever you are in and around your home.


Get long extension cords for your telephones so that you can move around freely while talking. Often, you can do a chore while talking on the telephone -- cooking, tending plants etc.

To save time and frustration whenever possible, use the telephone instead of making a trip. Phone to confirm appointments, to check if a store has the item you want, to learn business hours and so on.

Learn how to cut off time-consuming calls without hurting people's feelings. For example, it's quite all right to say,"This is a terrible time for me, may I call you back?"

Sometimes a phone call is more timesaving and effective than a letter. Even a long-distance call may be cheaper, especially when you consider how long it takes to write a letter and how much your time is worth.



Resist the temptation to remove the receiver from its cradle during times when you don't want interruptions. Instead, turn down the bell. Leaving the receiver off the cradle may interrupt phone service even after you've replaced the receiver.
