Passage
How to Make an Efficient Phone Call

When you make a telephone call to an office, a bank or any other institution, it is useful to know the extension 4 number of the person you are calling. The operator will know this, but it might save any delay if you mention it first.
Before you dial, you should always have the necessary information with you.
In this way, you can make a correct and useful telephone call. You need a list of points — dates, time of arrival and so on. This can help you to make an efficient telephone call. Proper preparation may even prevent you from making a second telephone call. You should use a telephone note pad 5 in order to take down the information from callers.
