Seems useless to give out that number, then -- Maybe they just forgot that
the  switchboard controls calls in their building? Often some organisations
will  have a central incoming number that goes to the receptionist & also
several  outgoing-only lines used as extensions to be used by the staff, so
they're not  disturbed when with clients.

aka: I'm a very important person; I don't take calls on your schedule, I make 
them on mine! Happens a lot here for provincial government offices. . .

I prefer texts, as I can get to them on my time & availability & not be 
interrupted at the task I'm currently involved with, when they come in. (I'm
a  very impo'tant person, don't you know!)
