彰化市興安珍餅行88歲老闆李添安,因為年歲已大每年只開賣15天中秋月餅,但他每天都要做的一件事,就是帶著硬幣去撥打店面門口的公用電話,只為了避免公用電話被拆,讓公用電話維持有通話使用量。至於,打電話給誰?李添安笑說,就是打給店面的家用電話!
李添安表示,他在1962年開店賣糕餅,1967年搬到民生路現址,隔年1968年申請在店面門口裝設公用電話,當年那個年代沒有手機,公用電話使用率很高。當時,店門口還沒有興建民生地下道,門口距離扇型車庫只有一個平交道的距離,天天都是車水馬龍,這支公用電話也非常搶手。
李添安指出,早期裝設公用電話,中華電信的前身電信局,還會給裝設地點的店家佣金,他記得是每個月300元,不無小補,常常都會有人來換零錢要打電話,後來有了呼叫器,民眾在戶外一接到呼叫器,就會四處尋找公用電話撥打電話,直到手機普及後,人人一支手機,幾乎不再有人使用公用電話了。
當李添安得知,如果公用電話的使用率太低,就會被拆除,為了留住店門口的公用電話,他就天天自己打公用電話,他會準備硬幣打電話,直接就打給店內的家用電話,聽到家用電話的鈴聲響起來再掛掉。他笑說,早年裝公用電話還有錢賺,現在是為了不讓公用電話被拆,他反而要花錢打電話。
李添安表示,時代真的改變很大,在走過58年頭來換了好幾台機型,以前要打公用電話,有時還要排隊,如今人人都有手機,公用電話就剩下免費撥打緊急電話為主要功能,但他不捨店門口的公用電話被拆,他會每天繼續投錢打電話,保住店門口的公用電話。
