Man: Hi, Jane. Barry here. Sorry this is a bit rushed, but I need you to fax me a document urgently.
Woman: No problem. What do you need?
Man: That report I’ve been writing on recruitment. I haven’t printed it off, but you’ll find it on my computer. I called it ‘jobsplan’, all one word. OK?
Woman: No problem. Which folder is it in? Personnel?
Man: That’s right. No, no, hang on, um, I created a new folder called Current Reports - it’s in there.
Woman: OK. I’ve made a note of that. If I can’t locate it, I’ll call you back.
Man: Fine. It’s quite a long document by the way. So don’t bother sending the appendix. We don’t really need that. But include the contents page - that’d be quite useful.
Woman: Shall I send it to you there at Head Office?
Man: Um... let me think. It might be better to fax it to my hotel. Er, no, you’re right. Send it here.
Woman: OK.
Man: Thanks very much. Bye.
