The one we had on the wall in the kitchen had a very long cord. I was long enough for my sister to walk to one of the closets across the basement to go and talk to her friends. Yes, we had and still have the kitchen in the basement.

That was portable at one time...the long cord in the kitchen as opposed to the short one where you were glued to 2 feet from the wall.
Right?! My Mom would unplug the phone and take it to work with her so we would get stuff done around the house. So my sister walked to the pay phone a couple blocks away so she could call her friend who's house she walked past to get to the pay phone. 😂 😂
Yeah. Little things like that were a major pain in the ass. We tend to overlook them.
I remember going to Lake Tahoe for an event. I was going to call Roy when the flight arrived and there were no fricking pay phones to be found anywhere. I didn't have a cell phone at the time. What a nightmare. I had to borrow someone's cell phone to make a quick call to just let him know I got there.
There were slot machines everywhere in the airport but no pay phones.
They want to control which slot the coins were placed into.
