There was a knock on the door with a man standing on the other side
of that same transparent door holding a large case of something heavy.
As the receptionist opened the door, the man extended a clipboard and a
pen asking the receptionist to initial next to the office address, as
proof of receipt.

A case of nine phone books were handed over to the receptionist; one
for each line, I suppose. She returned to her desk and began folding
small postage boxes and preparing the label printer.

As she began stuffing promotional items in the postage boxes, she
smiled at the stack of phone books recently delivered. She opened one
up. Then one-by-one, she began ripping out the pages.

Each page was crinkled then tossed into the postage box. Every
lawyer that advertised on those now crinkled up yellowish pages had
just spent thousands of dollars to have their name and contact
information printed on a packaging paper.

The creative uses of telephone books from shipping tissue, to
footstools, to furniture balancers are certainly expanding while the
readership is depleting. Who wants to spend a few minutes looking for
something in the phone book when a few seconds on Google can return the
same result?
