On Antiquated Technology

I am at my Uncle and Aunt's place in Denver. Tonight, a few of us are going out to listen to some jazz at a local jazz club. My aunt asked me to make reservations. The closest phone was a land line.

First, I started to dial the number without the "1." This obviously did not work. I was surprised, so I tried again, this time without the area code (this took some memory searching). This also didn't work. So I redialed, this time with the one and the area code. Success! But as I was looking for the button to send, I heard someone speaking.

Technology is so confusing.
