Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
It is important for the technician to be fully present and attentive while the customer is explaining the problem. Interrupting the conversation with a phone call could make the customer feel unimportant or not valued. Therefore, it is best to let the call go to voicemail and respond when possible.
