After-Hours Main Menu Script
Write an After-Hours Main Menu script that identifies the department, per-
son, or type of information the caller receives after entering a Selector
Code from the After-Hours Main Menu.
If applicable, the script should explain to callers how they can reach an
individual extension, how to send a fax, how to use the directory, and how
to get assistance. If you offer a caller the directory list, tell them whether it
is listed by first or last name. Make sure that the Dial 0/Timeout Action
Option matches the menu.
