Why? The job is a job. I assume they have quite a lot of operators and they are crucial for certain processes which make their fairly simple job - a phone operator - crucial.

Sure, but now they're getting dozens of calls from curious HNers.

Why would people call? It's not a mystery what happens---they'll ask you for the access code, and do nothing else if you don't provide it.

It'd be a waste of time to call them.

I don't think you understand the breadth of legitimate responses to your "why" question. Lots of us called.

Oh, that's really interesting! What were you looking to find out, and what did they say?

So's commenting on HN, but look how many of us do it!
