-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*- - TSPS ! Intercept ! C/NA ! Inward ! - - Directory Assistance ! Operators ! - -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*- Here we will discuss the most common types of operators except for the Rate and Route operator, which is a subject close to my heart and she deserves her own file. We will discuss operators in general, and then we will move on to a few of the more common operator scams and tricks. Traffic Service Position System Oper. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Well this answers your first question why TSPS is the abbreviation. She obtains billing information for calling card or third party calls, and she is the one who you deal with on person to person calls. (note: person to person calls are stupid and wasteful and they cost YOU extra). She also is responsible for obtaining acceptance of charges on collect calls. She can also and does identify numbers, when the number is not recorded by CAMA which is short for Centralized Automatic Message Accounting and forwarded from the local office. This happens when the ANI or Automatic Number Identification fucks up or if the office is not equipped for CAMA. These operators can be lethal and should not be fucked with as they have ONI or operator number identification! Your number is on her screen and little can be done to her, but she can trace you and know immediatly where your calling from, but there is one trick to abuse this Cunt! 1) Go to a payphone, and dial 0-XXX-XXX-XXXX. Where x is Whatever number you desire 2) When the bitch get's on say "I'd like to bill this to my home phone", and give her some assholes number you don't like 3) If she starts dialing hang-up and try again 1 out of every 10 operators won't call! 4) Reason why they don't call cause their underpaid and lazy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Intercept Operator(Unimportant Slug) -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= This is the poor sod that sits around, and waits for all the recordings to be tied up so she can say, "What number are you dialing?" This is gotta be the worst job in the world, why?, because she doesn't know what number your even calling from, and for that matter she doesn't even know what area code! She has no power whatsoever. She's got the importance of that roach that crawls out of your Cheerio's in the morning! Customer Name and Adress Operators -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= More commonly known as CN/A operators. These people when you give them a number they give you the name and adress thus CN/A, which should be self- explanitory. These operators are quite useful as they will often give out unlisted numbers, and aren't total fools like the directory assistance operators we will discuss next. They believe you are a phellow employee. They believe you and they have a common bond low pay, harsh wages, and shitty hours. That's why they are most helpful when you call, and sound like you know what your talking about! Directory Assistance Operators -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= This is the 1411 bitch, who doesn't know anything about the streets in Houston or the same bitch who has never heard of the Astrodome. She is also the same operator at NPA-555-1212. She cannot get unlisted numbers so don't even try begging her call the CN/A operator for that, but she knows if a unlisted number exists. The other DA operator is for deaf people which you can call at 1-800-855-1155 at 45.5 baud, which I can since I have a cat. These people are vast effigies of information as they are talkative because they believe you are deaf, and pity is the best for attention. Read my file on Telex to better understand this, since they use abbr. like Ga for Go Ahead like the Telex. They have no special power since they just call up a regular DA to get the number you wanted so don't get your hopes up. Now we need to get started on a project to bypass the 50 cent charge, because that mounts up after awhile! The 800 number for the deaf is working well for me, but knowing the slime AT&T is they will probably charge them twice as much! Inward Operator -=-=-=-=-=-=-=- This operator can you can only talk to via another operator or your handy wallet size condom? no I mean Blue Box by dialing KP+NPA+121+ST, and then she will help connect any calls in her area. Her area is the NPA or Area Code for the illiterates. She also helps the TSPS operator in connecting, but I well not I, but this guy I know Jack Prefers to box em! Mobile Operators (Cunts of Sin) -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- These are the bitches you get when you use a car phone or any other mobile phone. On the older phones you needed an operating code, and on some of the shittier ones today. This operator most of us will never deal with unless we got a mobile phone! But they are royal bitches, and most are half deaf as it takes 2 days to tell them your problem or dial your call. Maybe this is because at 35 to $1.35 a minute they want to keep you on the line as long as possible. later... Jack the Ripper The Knights of Shadow The 202 Alliance
