Sally, were you able to get that report all typed up?
Not yet, Mr. Black. Mrs. Farnsworth asked me to type some letters for her. They'll be finish pretty quick and then I'll start on that.
Don't forget I need it in the morning. I have to take it along to Chicago to the regional meeting.
Don't worry, I'll get it done. My husband's on a business trip, too. He's in Detroit today, and tomorrow he'll be in Boston. So I'm planning to stay late. After it's typed up, I'll leave it on your desk. I must finish it by 8:00.
I'm sorry to make you so late.
It's all right, Mr. Black. Really, I don't mind at all. Besides, I can make a little extra money. My husband's birthday is next month. I want to buy him a new watch.
What kind are you going to get for him, a Bulova?
No, I thought I'd get a Rolex or an Elgin. I don't really know much about watches.
I've got one of those Seiko digitals. I really like it.
Do you think my husband would like one like that?
I'm sure he would. The only problem is that they're a little bit heavy.
If they're that good, I think I'll go ahead and get him one.
Well, at least he won't get a tie. That's what I usually get.
Remember, it's the thought that counts.
