Does the office you work in have caller ID?

if so, do you find it beneficial?

Not the one I work in now. But the one I used to work in did. Of course, we were on several occasions tempted not to answer the phone when it was "them" on the phone. (You know who "them" is....every office has a "them". :chuckle ) Also it made us look really smart when we "recognized" the person who was calling.

Aside from all that...it was okay. I did find it handy on several occasions when I was able to go back in the telephone memory to retrieve a phone number that was garbled on the answering machine.

Caller ID is a lot handier at home IMO.
