A: This seat taken?
B: No, go ahead, be my guest. I haven’t seen you before. Are you new in engineering?
A: Yeah, I just switched my major from computer science——too much math! I couldn’t take the pressure.
B: Well, don’t expect it to be any better here! What’s your name, anyway?
A: Sam. What’s yours?
B: Ben Jones, but everybody calls me “BJ”.
A: BJ, huh? Well, I’m not going to tell you what my nickname is! Oh, here comes the professor. What’s his name, anyway? Scarey, or something like that?
B: James Kerry. But we call him “Big Jim” because he’s so short.
A: To his face?
B: No. Are you kidding? He has a bad temper. I know he wouldn’t think it was funny. I think it’s really funny. He is a little guy. He’s not a bad teacher though.
A: Well, that’s good to know. Thanks for filling me in.
B: Anytime.
