Creating FlowCharts - the bored man´s almanac

Let us look at this : current situation : a daily phone call to elderly people, for which you ask for money. It leaves a 24 hour gap betrween calls. Quite pricy.

Here it is.

"Yippee-ki-yay, Motherfucker", as John McLane would say.

But again, nothing drives me as someone telling me it cannot be done.

So thank you, whoever you were.
