The Automated Attendant is incredibly versatile, allowing callers to be answered by different greetings depending on the situation. If it’s after hours, your customers could hear something like, “Sorry, our restaurant is closed, but, if you leave a message we will get back to you shortly,” or if it’s during peak times, “Sorry, we are very busy attending at the moment but please leave a message at the tone.” If someone does happen to leave a message, the system can send a copy of the voice mail message out as a WAV file to your handheld.

Simply put, the Automated Attendant, voice mail to email, line appearances, paging, and portable phones will all make it easier to answer the call, book the next reservation, and run your business.

Telecommunication is a kind of trasmission and information. In old times, smoke signal or colorful flags were used as telecommunications. Nowadays, telecommunication involves use of electrical devices such like telephones and videos. I think there are lots of people among us working in restaurant right now. So I want to ask a question: Does it frequently happen that the phone rings when you are crazy with customers' orders? I am always struggling in such crazy situation which leads me to bad working mood. In this article, it mentioned telecommunication method that help servers in restaurant handle with phone calls in rush hours. Instead of voice message, Automated Attendant will send voice messages directly to managers' emails, which means not have to pick up the phone to hear voice mails. It really makes sense because sometimes servers even have no time to listen to the voice mails in phones, which will let restaurant miss some important dinner reservations. So as a server in restaurant, I do think telecommunication is helpful and significant.
