If your office phone stops rings for one day, what will happen to your work?

Question

To me, nothing. My American customers communicate with me by email. They seldom call me, b/c when it's daytime in my country, it's night time in the west. My boss never calls me, he simply comes to my desk sometimes. People in other departments don't call me often either.

"stops ringing", sorry

Answer 1

Seeing as how I work in a call center, mass panic. I'd still have emails to do, but a non-functional phone system would be devestating.

Answer 2

I could actually take a nap :-) I'm a stay home mom and if the phone rings while my son is at school then I answer the credit card, zero percent people, or a new digital tv service, or some go to school thing that I have to travel for......sorry, all those are not interested.......leave me alone and let me sleep :-)

Answer 3

With the 16 women that work in this house, a phone not ringing will never happen.

Answer 4

Nothing, as now-a-days most people prefer to use emails, so I would still be able to get on with my work

Answer 5

My work will be gone. I am a receptionist in a doctor's office. Many of the patients want to talk to a "real person" so they can be sure we understand their suffering.

Answer 6

You get to a stand still
And there is only stuff to do,that was still there
Since nothing new comes in.
Sky.

Answer 7

Answer 9

Answer 10
