I was getting tons of phone books myself, just made call to the company, stating all I need is a local book & maybe 1 yellow
pages. Now that’s what I get. Thanks phone company…
Here in Australia you can call “Telstra” “Don’t” i have done that many times only to get an ‘automated phone guy’ to which i have to repeat the name of whatever the person/name of the company that i am after, repeating it all several times and getting various answers too which sounded nothing like what i was asking for…Now i don’t think i have a speech impediment….but after quite a few times of both of us trying to get it right…. i am mentally ripping out his bleep bleep bleeps!!!! before he gives up and put me onto an operator…. PHEW…..
,,,I say ‘if you need a phone book call the telephone co. and ask for one’…I mean they already have your address and phone #… not everybody wants OR even needs a phone book,,,that could cut the printing by half – I’ll bet
Ummmm i know its obvious i do have the internet but every now and again i do need to use a phone book not everybody i know has a mobile/cellphone or the internet or you can cover them in your favorite colored wrapping paper/fabric and have a cheap funky doorstop or footstool….
……..but please “Recycle”……
That looks like our apartment complex. Figured since they get paid by the books they just dumped all of the leftovers in our hallway. We had one big mess of books more than twice the number needed for our building, but sure hope the delivery person got a great paycheck…maybe he should have just put them in our dumpster….??????? No wonder our landfills are full.

Here in Savannah,Ga they are not going to deliver phonebooks anymore–unless you call and ask for one–and then you’ll have to pay for it

If people didn’t get their free phone book, they would be complaining
because they had to pay to call “411” for information. No one is ever
happy
