Telephone Operators







I didn't plan to post again today, but came across these great pics of old school telephone operators. Wow, things have really changed huh? Oh, just as a side note, Jerry and I have broken up. Just thought I'd let you know, since some of you often send us well wishes. I am doing fine and am ready to begin the next chapter! Have a great night!

Oh, don't forget to enter my giveaway!

Many moons ago, my cousin, Winifred and my great aunt, Francis, were phone operators.
Winnie was a local operator while Francis was a long distance operator and supervisor.
My mother and uncle would get on the phone and play forgetting that Francis and Winnie could hear them and would get in trouble!
