Thanks Alee, that's great to know. I'm always calling somebody with a question.

Ha, it's just like the old days when my mom would dial the "operator" to ask a question. They always seemed to get the answer, too! I don't think operators do that anymore. In fact, I don't think they'll even give you the time anymore, either. Is there even anybody there when you dial "0" for operator anymore?
Guess what? I just called the operator! I had to know. It's automated, but if you push 1 for English and then 0 for operator you will get a live person! So asked him what he does and he says mainly directing calls. I said that I remembered my mom calling years ago to ask for the correct time or to ask questions like the operator had a dictionary and encyclopedia set. He said, yes, they still do that when someone calls for that reason every now and then.
What do ya know? Some things do stay the same!

I think that would be a cool job, actually! Can't you just imagine me with a headset and an old fashioned switchboard in front of me! LOL

LOL! When I was a toddler I was a bit slow to learn how to talk, but once I did...I guess the rest is history! LOL
