I answer the phones at my Yeshiva many times throughout the day and when i tell people that the person is not there and do they want the voicemail they seem to hold it against me personally, that they cant speak to their party immediately and they will begrudgingly accept my offer of the voicemail, listen dont do me any favors and don’t kill the messenger people during the day have to sometimes leave their desks don’t act like i killed your puppy because i cant instantly gratify your request. End rant.
Does the yeshiva know you are answering their phones throughout the day and telling people that the person they are calling for is not there?
I tell my secretary to always tell callers I am not in, and then if they act annoyed, to send them through. This way, I know I will only get the callers who really want to speak to me.
lol…ahhhh….that explains it.
Well, you seem to be doing your job.
Where are all those people who are “not there”?
I’m proposing a mass CR call-in to GOQ’s yeshiva. We’ll all ask for someone, then not grumble when he says they aren’t available.
And we’ll also prank call and say funny things.
Since we don’t know which yeshiva, we’ll just call all of them. Everybody call the yeshivos whose name starts with the same letter as your username. I’ll call Yeshivas Poretz Geder.
I’ll call Yishechenu Nachash.
come on Goq – give us the first 8 numbers
In Europe, yeshivos didn’t have telephones.
They didn’t have Starbucks either.
They did have cast iron pans, though.
Oh come on the 1 doesn’t count.
in this day and age who needs phones?
I only communicate via Email.
I communicate only via YWN.
Goq, try “So sorry, you just missed him, but I can put you through to is “Private” voice mail”.”
Or you can tell them that you’ll take down their name and number (don’t tell them you’ll give it to whom they want to speak to) and they should wait for a phone call (which won’t be forthcoming)
