                               yourself from the receiver, however, you’ll be free to work on
                               other things while you’re waiting. A speakerphone or headset is
                               useful here. Try to call during what you predict to be an off time.
                               (Mondays, for example, are not the time to contact your insur-
                               ance company or most other businesses.) This is also a way to
                               avoid that related phenomenon, the busy signal. (An automatic
                               redial feature can help you defeat this latter problem.)
