LT&T Office
- If you haven't accepted a quest:
- An old-timey looking man with a vest and pince-nez glasses looks up as you approach. "Got three telegrams waiting for you, <Sir/Madam>!"
- NOTE: Reading one of these telegrams will begin a quest to help the person who sent the telegram.
- If you're currently on a quest:
- You're already in the middle of investigating a telegram, and anyway the clerk's window is shuttered. Looks like telegraph operator's hours are even shorter than banker's hours!
- If you've already accepted a telegram today:
- The clerk's window is still shuttered. You dig through the filing cabinet and read the fine print on the clerk's contract -- apparently LT&T only pays him enough to deliver one telegram a day!
- You'll have to pay his overtime if you want another telegram today.

Notes
- The LT&T Office offers a choice of three quests sending you to investigate the Wild West. One quest of each difficulty level is offered.
- The first quest per day is free, but you must provide overtime pay to accept additional quests in a day. Once you pay overtime, the clerk will again offer a selection of three quests.
- The first overtime fee is 1,000 meat, and each subsequent fee increases by a factor of 10. This resets at rollover or ascension.
- You can get a telegram while drunk without a problem, but it cannot be used while drunk or you will just end up spending an adventure in a drunken stupor.
- The offered quests are re-rolled on ascension or when you complete or abandon a quest, which causes a new quest of the same difficulty level to replace it. As of an update on February 7, 2016, you will not be given the same quest twice in a row.
