You said it! I still remember the time when the students where I work were connected to the same PBX as the faculty & staff (a setup I inherited) and I asked, "aren't we worried that students will give out our 800 number and people calling them can dial it and put the student's extension in and make the call on our dime?" The response was basically, oh, nobody will ever think of that.
