My mechanic has had an earpiece thing. After three rings it rings in his ear. Few customers realize the voice booking thier appointment is often elbow-deep in an engine.

He told me once that he would never have a dedicated receptionist. He has his mechanics rotate between the shop and the desk. They have the skills to give advice and prices over the phone, sometims ordering parts before the customer ever arrives.
