Late Friday afternoon, it came to my attention that there were members who were trying to reach me. They called my phone number to no avail and as a result they called the Transportation Office only to be told that they could not reach me there either. I understand that when there is a problem in your life you just want help. Now.!
I just want to let you, the members, know that the number I have posted as my contact is my home number. and on occasion there may be times when it will ring and NOT pick up. That could be for a couple of reasons. First someone may be on the other line and unable ( or unwilling ) to switch over right at that moment. Also If my answering machine is in use , taking or playing back messages it will cause the caller to hear a ongoing ring and not put the call through. Also it blocks certain kinds of phones, blocked phones & payphones for some reason.
SO if you call me and don’t get me or my machine please call back later. I will return your call. I can be reached by e-mail as well. Please remember that I am a bus driver and I work different hours every day. Please do not call Transportation, I do not work in the office , and it makes them cranky and they will not deliver messages. Remember with the overlay system you have to dial 1-714 before the number.
Thank you, – Allyson Holt
