DUMMY RUN

1. there's two types of dummy runs. There's just plain dummy runs. You just go through the organization's public lines one way or the other, and try to get hired or something like this, or try to take advantage of this new free offer, and go into the proper point and just try to get it. You sometimes find yourself in practically a fist fight. The other type of dummy run is a bull-bait, and you take a whole bunch of questions which the public would be prone to ask. Your bull-bait dummy runs pay off because the bull-bait dummy runs test the personnel. The plain dummy run just tests the line. Does the line exist? (FEBC 10, 7101C24 SO III) 2. The dummy run drill is designed to test that the org's public lines are there, functioning smoothly, and do not Q and A or get thrown off by originations of the public, but continue to flow, handle and channel the public individual toward service and further service.
