I have an appointment with a big-ticket customer in about ten minutes. Big John: That's right. Well done, June. That's the kind of initiative we need here at this store. June: I've actually learned quite a bit during this meeting and was wondering whether we could review the tasks and projects that have been assigned. Big John: Well, we've been talking about the store's problems for about forty minutes now. June: I know, but I'm having trouble distinguishing between what I'm supposed to do and what the other departments should be doing. Big John: What do you mean? June: It's just that in my department, we are really focused on sales and, while we've spoken quite a bit about the problems we're having as a store, I'm having trouble identifying exactly what I should implement in my department so that I can increase sales. Big John: Haven't you been listening for the past forty minutes? June: Yes I have been listening, sir. In fact, I think the solution proposed by Cody is excellent. I just wanted to be clear that we are going to implement his plan. Big John: No one has agreed on any plan of action yet. June: Okay. I just needed to be sure I was on the same page as everybody else. --------------------------- Learn English with EnglishClass101!
