Telephone
Service Is
People. . . !
A MAZE of complex electronic equipment makes your
telephone work, day after day after day. But telephone
service is more than parts and impulses.
Telephone service is people . . . people like the cable
splicer.
Cable splicing is a lot like knitting. You have to know
what you're doing, and you have to take your time. When
a cable splicer opens up a cable with 600 wires in it, he
has to know how to match them up . . . and he has to know
how in sunshine . . . rain . . . storm. He's just one of manv
skilled, dedicated people who help keep you in touch with
the rest of the world.
At your telephone company, people are the common
denominator.
