i once called my dad's office and the message said to press 0 before 5 if you needed to reach someone. after 5, it went to an telephone operator. i accidently pressed 0 one day after 5 and it went to the operator's number and i hung up really quickly because i thought i had connected to 911 and was going to reach a surgeon (operator).
