I hope at the very least you've told them you're going nowhere near their account, and if you're the only person who can help with something they can get hosed.

We just did a (good) reorg and are on a hiring pause. We're in the Bay Area, hybrid 50/50, have a strong Diversity and Inclusion department, are perfectly fine with trans employees, and are ranked in the single digits for best places to work in IT. Oh, and we make new medicines. I'll post something when we're hiring for Informatics again. The rest of the company is hiring, so PM me if you want our careers page.

patriarchy sucks
Oh no.

I think I’ve been given the telephony equivalent of the Y2K problem.

So Northern Ontario is one of the few places still doing 7 digit phone dialing. Most anywhere else in Canada, it’s 10 digit dialing. You wanna call your neighbour in Toronto, you gotta dial 416 before their 7 digit number. Here in 807 you never needed to dial the area code for local calls. But you will next spring.

Which doesn’t sound like a huge deal, you just have to tell people to dial the 807, they’ll figure it out. Except there’s tons of business PBX phone systems out there where the dial plans are specifically coded to match either 9XXXXXXX or 91XXXXXXXXXX as users dial out, with no case for a local area code without the leading 1 for long distance.

We’ve got a couple hundred of just Avaya systems that will need their ARS tables updated, which we mostly have remote access to thankfully, but there’s also don’t even know how many older Nortel systems with no remote admin access that might be affected.

And the “can you dial out” problem is just the most obvious issue, there’s going to be all sorts of harder to spot problems from phone numbers manually coded into things like on-call systems and fail-over forwarding in VMPro deployments, plus saved contacts in phones and fax machines that are gonna stop working…

I'm in the USA so this may differ, but they changed us over last fall to 10 digit, and we can dial both local and long distance with or without the leading 1. So maybe there is a glimmer of hope, in one respect?

If you have systems that can't be remotely managed this seems like a good opportunity to try to fix that, assuming you have the power to do so and/or ability to convince those that do.

Since you're going to have to rework the routes anyways, you could always set up new seven digit routes that just add the original area code so anything that worked before keeps working. If your system supports it, maybe have it send an alert if this route is triggered so you can know what devices might have these old saved contacts.

On an actual POTS line? This is of course standard behavior on cell phones and VoIP systems to just accept 10 digits for anything, but at least the last time I tried it on a real analog line 11 digit dialing was still required to leave the local area.

We had the same change for POTS lines here. Prior to the change if you dialed area the code with a local number the call would fail. When I managed my old jobs phone system we did a whole translation table so if someone dialed an area code with a local prefix we handled the call correctly.
