總機接線員 (Switchboard Operators) — Elementary

Long ago, phones could not 接続する calls by themselves. People called switchboard operators to help them. These workers sat at big boards with hundreds of holes and wires. When someone wanted to call a friend, the operator would plug wires into the right holes to connect the two phones.

Most switchboard operators were young women. Phone companies liked to hire women because they had nice voices and were patient with customers. The women would say “Number please?” when people called. Then they would quickly find the right connection and plug in the wires. This was one of the first jobs that let women work outside their homes.
