At the customer service center I work at, using ACD/Teknekron equipment, we can determine who was using the phone at what time. Although we can't tell what number they were talking to when the call is inbound, we look at all transactions from the terminals of the operators at that time. This identifies the operator almost every time, and also provides information indicating who was performing what transaction. Talk about Big Brother!
