Situation 5:
Arriving at Work
Good morning,James.You're early.What's up?
Morning,Steve.Early is right.I've got two important
meetings today;one with the boss and one with a client.
You're pretty early yourself,something important?
Yeah,I'm meeting a client,too.Someone from a big computer
company.I think their headquarters are in Taiwan,
but this guy runs the New York office.
Wang Computers.That's my client,too.
But I think the owner is a Chinese-American;I'm not sure if they
even have an office in Taiwan.I guess we're working
on this account together.
Good.To tell you the truth I was a little scared.The
account is really big;it's just too much
work for one man.Say,what time do you meet with the boss,
Mr.Barnes?
Ten-thirty,why?
I was right.We are on this account together.
I'm scheduled General Version-tSMM to meet
with Mr.Barnes at ten-thirty,too.
Well then,partner,let's get Situbusy preparing someth-
ing for the meeting.
Good idea.Where should we begin?
I don't know about you but I always
begin big projects by going to the bathroom,
and then with a James hot cup of coffee.Can
you wait for me?
Just hurry.I'll get the coffee ready.
That sounds like an excellent plan.
