The paper is devoted to the study of Toeplitz operators with piecewise continuous symbols. We clarify the geometric regularities of the behavior of the essential spectrum of Toeplitz operators in dependence on their crucial data: the angles between jump curves of symbols at a boundary point of discontinuity and on the limit values reached by a symbol at that boundary point. We show then that the curves supporting the symbol discontinuities, as well as the number of such curves meeting at a boundary point of discontinuity, do not play any essential role for the Toeplitz operator algebra studied. Thus we exclude the curves of symbol discontinuity from the symbol class definition leaving only the set of boundary points (where symbols may have discontinuity) and the type of the expected discontinuity. Finally we describe the
