Is any thing i can do to recalm these calls
I can see 2 things you could do:
You can turn down the time on the "Transfer Return Time" for the individual receptionist users to something more managable, like 10-15 seconds which is about 4-5 rings. This was if the call isn't answered, at least it comes back fairly fast.

Setup a short code to pull the last transfered call back. Again.. there are a few ways to do that.
Setup a short code like:
Short Code: (Whatever you want)
Tel Number: (blank)
Line Group: (doesn't matter)
Feature: Call Steal
This one pulls the last call back. OR you could use the default one to target individual extentions by dialing:
*32*(extn to pickup)#
