Abstract
[Abstract]: In this paper I introduce some features of conversation analysis through three actions. I do this, firstly, by displaying three observations of a telephone call to a local government council. Secondly, by invoking participants’ capacities, skills and resources as social interactants to analyse this call. And thirdly, by commenting on how traditional approaches to psychology might explain the orderliness of the call. I then conclude the paper with some modest claims about how the communication choices made by professionals shape the quality of service interactions, and about the potential for conversation analysis to contribute to psychological research at USQ.
