Not to me, but I guess to her manager if he shouts at her. If I were your
mum I would simply ask him what to do, simply say would you prefer me to cut
off callers early in order to reach this target or carry on as I'm doing
actually trying to solve the problem, or maybe he has another suggestion.
Get it in writing what she should be aiming to do, as there doesn't seem an
obvious way to meet the target *and* solve every problem properly.

Hehe, I guess if your average call duration is 502 seconds and it's near the
end of the month you need a few 5 second "hang on while i transfer you"
calls to get under the magic 500!
