Many families I work with have found this can significantly cut down on calls.

I mean he doesn't want to handle calls from the people who undertook to walk the dog -- for some reason or other can't come through, does he now?

Some people phone just to show they care, or more exactly to prove they care, and nothing more. People should be encouraged to do something real to help. That way they won't waste time on useless chatter. Personally, I think Judy’s advice is right on…. Some people phone just to show they care, or more exactly to prove they care, and nothing more.
