You only called long distance after 9pm when the rates went down. And only for really important stuff that couldn't wait for a letter.

@Dougfir

We only called anywhere if it was important enough to walk 2 blocks to the call box outside the post office.

OTOH, no calls from duct cleaners at dinner time.
