W: (50) Have you placed the order yet? Mr. Johnson just called and said he wants two more laptops, and a 50-inch monitor.

M: Well, I already placed the previous order, (51) but the laptops and monitor will have to wait until tomorrow. The supply company closes at 8:00 P.M.

W: Oh, will they be able to deliver to us on the same day? Mr. Johnson was hoping to get everything tomorrow.

M: I'm not sure. I'll call them first thing in the morning and find out.

W: Meanwhile, how much was the total for the order?

M: It came to $12,500. Do we have enough in our budget for more laptops and a monitor?

W: Hi, Mr. Jeffries. (53) Unfortunately, our client in New Jersey called and said they have to reschedule the meeting date to 5th of July. I went ahead and booked a ticket for the 4th. Is it OK if you go straight to Washington after New Jersey?

M: What about the client in Washington? Were they comfortable with the schedule?

W: Yes. (54) I explained that we need to postpone the meeting in Washington because of our client in New Jersey. I think this gives us time to prepare some additional materials for your presentation.

M2: Yeah, that's a lot of extra work. (60) I think after next month we should get a few days added to our vacation.

W: That sounds reasonable. (61) I will need to hire a babysitter while I'm doing the overtime, so the extra vacation time seems fair.

M: Hold a moment please... Next day delivery is an extra seventy-five dollars.

Hi, Susan. I'm calling about the office furniture we delivered to Harmons & Sons recently.

Hi, Susan. I'm calling about the office furniture we delivered to Harmons & Sons recently. They said their first floor looks really good, but they are going to need twenty chairs and twelve whiteboards for their boardrooms upstairs. (93) They recently merged with another company so I think they will have a lot more staff in their building soon. Make sure you check what we have in the warehouse; if we are missing anything, we need to order it today. (94) Also, before you send the order, please have me sign off on it. As the manager, I need to sign all outgoing orders before they leave the office. Please let me know when you have the order prepared.

Question 94: What is the listener asked to do before making any orders?

OK everybody, thank you for coming in. (95) I received the statistics for this year's software market shares. Although we are still in the top four companies, we need to work harder. (96) Slight Line Inc. has just moved past us by three percent one year. We were much bigger than them last year. Analysts are suggesting that Slight Line's success is because they give away a lot of free software updates after people buy their games. (97) In the next quarter, we are going to begin to offer all of our expansion packs for free download. I think this can give us the edge we need and help us get back about Slight Line Inc.
