Dialogue: Scheduling a Meeting
A: Hey, Tom. Do you have a minute?
B: Sure. What’s up?
A: I think we need to schedule a meeting sometime next week.
B: A meeting? What for?
A: We need to discuss quality control.
B: Quality control? Has there been a problem?
A: Yes, there has actually. We had a record number of returns last month and some very negative customer feedback.
B: Really? I wasn’t aware. Where did you get this from?
A: I was just talking to Marie from customer service. She showed me the numbers from last month.
B: Okay. That sounds serious. When would you like to meet?
A: The sooner the better. Are you available Monday afternoon?
B: Monday. Hmm. No, I’ve got meetings all day Monday. And Tuesday I will be away from the office. How about Wednesday? I’m free all day on Wednesday.
B: Sure. Let’s schedule the meeting for Wednesday morning at 10. I’ll let the team know.
