 A:    So,  Lauren,  I just wanted to talk to you quickly
       about our new customer support representative,
       Jason Huntley.

 B:    Sure, what’s up?

 A:     Basically, I’ve got a few concerns about him, and
       the bottom line is, I don’t think he’s a good fit for
       our company.

 B:    Okay... what makes you say that?  I thought you
       were pleased with his overall performance. Didn’t
       you just tell  me last  week how impressed you
       were with his attitude?

 A:    Yeah,  his  attitude  is  great,  but  he’s  really  unreli-
       able. Sometimes he’s really productive, but then
       other  times...  take  last  Tuesday  for  instance,  he
       was forty-five minutes late for our morning meet-
        ing!
 B:    Well, I’m sure he had a perfectly¹ good reason...

 A:     But  that’s  not the only thing...  you know, he re-
       ally  doesn’t  have  the  best  work  ethic², I’m con-
       stantly catching³ him on MSN and Facebook when
        he should be talking to clients.

 B:    Yeah,  but  come  on,  Geoff,  as  if  you  don’t  check
        Facebook at work. Look, you hired this guy, we’ve
        invested  a  lot  of  time  and  money  in  his  training,
       so now it’s up to you to coach him.  Make it work,
       Geoff!

 A:    Make it work, Geoff. You would say that, wouldn’t
       you, he is your cousin; what a jerk, make me hire
       your stupid, useless, cousin.
