Mrs. Montgomery? I'Ve been trying to figure out when we should have the New Year's party. Could you take a book at these dates?
Sure. The twenty-ninth is out. I'll be out of the office all day at a seminar. Either the twenty-eighth or the thirtieth is fine.
Well, why don't we make it the thirtieth? We can set it up from three to five. That way, everybody can just go home afterwards.
Sounds good to me. You make up the invitations, I'Ve got run. I'Ve got a meeting in five minutes.
