Another case in point on this idea:
My auto repair shop client asked me to alter the phone fields on his Customer
and Work Order records.
They were originally labelled Home Phone and Work Phone. He wanted a third #,
but also a different concept.
What he wanted were three fields of 20 characters, so that he could put phone
numbers in priority order, with
the note afterward. Almost exactly as Ted's examples:
888-555-1212 Work
619-272-2411 Cell
619-272-8831 Wife
I've done phones that way ever since.

I've found my clients are delighted if I give them room to type in what
they mean, like:
"603-555-1212 weekends"
or "888-555-1212 x1234"
or "800-555-1212 9-noon MWF"
or "603-555-1212 or -1213"
or my favorite "JUniper6-2352"
Unless you're using a computerized means to dial the phone, let them
type
whatever they want. Trust them to do what they are supposed to do.
Just my opinion.
He's right. Easier and they (typically) love it moreso.
