EMEPMI – More Stringent Call Screening

December 18, 2011

It looks like ExxonMobil’s keepers of the telephonic gates have had upgraded instructions. They will no longer give out extension numbers of people in the building, and I think they don’t let you talk to someone if you don’t know their number. Talk about brick walls.

I need to incorporate these procedures in my company.
