she could feel trembling and hear the angry buzzing right before the message began “Please call 888-555-9009 we\ve been trying to reach you concerning your car warranty|”
Area codes were orignally assigned on how many telephones were in the area-with rotary dialing it was easier/faster to dial a 2 or 3 number so NYC has a 212 area code, Chicago 312 and DC 202 and Navada 702 when few lived there (1948).

Oooh, a digital pager! I used to sell & service those back in the 80’s. How old is this strip today!?
