W: Hello. I am Dorothy Baker. Please sit down.
M: Very nice to meet you, Dorothy. Can I call you Dottie? W: Just Dorothy, thank you. I see on your résumé that you have experience working in customer service. Please tell me a little bit more about that.
M: Oh, yeah. I worked at Al’s Garage for the past three years. Before that, I worked at Donut Delight. I served people coffee and donuts all day long. They had the best donuts in town, believe me!
W: That’s very interesting. Here at Hill and Dale, we sell wood furniture, and we need our salespeople to make our customers feel comfortable.
M: Yeah. I’d be great at that. Everybody always tells me how relaxed I am, and I’m good at telling jokes. I was in here with my wife the other day, when I saw your Help Wanted sign. I took a seat on that big oak bed. That’s very nice!

W: They make these parking lots so big nowadays. I had already been looking for it for 15 minutes before James saw me wandering around.
M: It doesn’t help that you have a very popular car. It seems like everyone has a silver four-door car now! We’ll walk with you.
W: Wonderful! My son is waiting for me there to help me fix a broken window. M: He takes good care of you, doesn’t he, Mrs. Perkins?
