They are located in mass transportation centers all over the USA & Europe. Often, in Europe, there are special locations such as the postoffice that also facilitates the use of publick telephones.

To answer your question, they are on their way out with modern cellular technology.

You must live in a cave.

When I started policing in 1994, there were 11 pay phones in my county within 508 square miles. I know this because my training sergeant would test me and give me a time limit to drive to all of them (when the calls died down) as a way of me knowing my surroundings if my patrol car or portable radio should take a shit. We always prepared for the worst. Anyhow, the point is, by 2000, there was only two left. By 2004, none. I was even tested on knowing their phone numbers (at all times) and what ones you could actually call into. Only a few of them accepted incoming calls.

Needless to say, I kept much info written in my pocket notebook as a means for officer safety.

How did you have room left over on the loose leaf pages of the tiny notebook? Didn't you have every donut shop listed with contact data of the respective managers of the shops so you could radio ahead to get your free chocolate eklair with a kup o' koffee?

There was only two "donut" shops in my jurisdiction. We stayed clear of them (most of us). Too many assholes like you give them a stigma towards officers. I'd pull into a Sunoco gas station 3 times a shift and fill up a 24 ounce coffee, black and without sugar. Dark roast... no donut.

Back in the 90's, phone companies started phasing them out, due to increasing costs, and the rise of cell phones. Some ( few ) businesses, like gas stations, tried to put in their own, thinking they could make extra money. They quickly found they were losers. I have not seen one in a long time.

I know a guy that got one, and put it on the wall in his basement pool table room. He is an old I&M guy, use to work on them. It looks pretty cool. He is thinking of building a wooden "phone booth" like the old ones to put it in. I think that would be real cool.

I wish I had salvaged some old equip like that before I retired. I know a couple of other guys that acquired some old wall mount crank phones, modified them, and have them operational hanging in their homes. That is really cool.

Through the 90's, I was involved in some aggressive technical design about publick phones because of the Bell breakups which lead to so-called 'baby-bells.' The work lead into international recognition with some socialist nations buying products for publick payphone systems. We even created methods of capturing "too many rings" and "busy signaling" to recoup revenues on the publick phone system.

It was too cool! I designed voice recognition circuits and ways to deteckt the entry of coins already inthe box (publick payphone box) from the original insertion of coins whether a dime, two nickels, quarters, etc.

Yeah, some of us really KNOW where we were and where we are going. The future is not pretty because of these international conglomerates that are slow to accept change AND THEN wipe out those that have designed, manufactured and supported alternative approaches @the tyme of technology revolution.

The US government could care less about any of us for our accomplishments throughout our working lives other than one singular goal: tax money.

unauthorized breaktymes?

The only person I needed to ask what, where and how I patrol a sector or post I was assigned to... was me. Dip shit.

I authorized every coffee break, every traffic stop, every arrest... EVERYTHING I DID during my tour of duty. I need not ask an asshole like you for permission... or anyone else for that matter.

I know if I were ever a cop, unless it was something in the line of duty, there would be no way I'd be seen within a mile of a Dunkin Donuts. I can hear the snickers now.

I served who I was sent to... and between calls I served only those I wanted to. If you lived in my jurisdiction, and you had a reputation for treating cops like shit, I wouldn't serve you unless you lodged a complaint... and KOOK Paultards like you very rarely does.

So if I was cruising your neighborhood, I probably wouldn't check out anything suspicious... like your car door ajar with the dome light on... I'd just let you find your GPS and ashtray change missing in the morning. And trust me, the assholes of every jurisdiction are well known by the cops who patrol it. It's NEVER forgotten. You sleep on the bed you shit in.

I think that is the case in any of "service" industries. I remember way back when I was delivering pizzas, everybody knew exactly who the stiffers, whiners, and complainers were. Nobody wanted to deliver to them. If I had to go to their address, I wouldn't stoop to giving them "special free ingredients." However, I might make it a point a cool their pizza down for them by opening the box and turning the air conditioner vents on the pizza. I wouldn't want our honored customers to be burning their mouths on a product that is too hot.
