* * * * * * * * * * * * * Telephone Messages About telephone messages Telephone messages or slips are a kind of notes (for notes, please refer to the Practice Writing in Unit 3 4), including visitor slips, appointment slips, asking-for-a-leave slips, message slips, etc. Telephone slips, as well as other notes, are written for the convenience of the people who are temporarily off. They are not sent through the post, but are left for people to read, or sent to people by hand. They are often written in informal style, except that they are written for a superior to read, when the style may become formal. Telephone slips may be designed and printed as standard office slips (as in sample 1, 2) or written in a casual way (as in sample 3, 4). Sample Reading Sample 1 2 are two standard telephone messages. The person who answers the telephone is just required to fill the blanks. Accordingly, such information as “who called”, “to whom”, “the caller’s telephone number”, “who put down the message” and when the message is recorded are the essential parts of a telephone slip. Meanwhile, the language of the message is comparably concise and simple. Sample 3 is a telephone slip virtually made up of a single sentence with such a structure as “Please call… at… about…”, even without signature and time. Sample 4 seems a little more formal than the previous one.
