714/657 Area Codes

Cadaverous Pallor · 08-22-2008, 04:44 PM

The only reason I'm annoyed at the overlay is that at the library, we have to call people when their item holds become available. Each of us usually makes about 5 of these calls a day, and when it's our turn to process the afternoon delivery, the number can shoot up to 20 or 30. I've been adding 1714 for weeks now to prepare myself, so it's already automatic for me.

Check your speed dials and get used to the added digits.

The low down on the details.

But, do you dial 1+714+number?

So 4 numbers being 1+714, right?
