dialogue one
m: can you have the briefs from the anderson firms lawyer on my desk by tomorrow morning. there are quite a few very time sensitive matters with this case. i'm afraid i can't wait any longer.
f: getting those andersons briefs has been harder than you can imagine. i have to try to contact their lawyer many times, but every time i call his secretary says he’s in a meeting or out of the office or away on business. i am beginning to think he is trying to avoid me.
m: that's highly possible. he knows if we miss our filing deadline, we don’t stand a chance to compete against them for the bid. try to get a hold of him again. give him a call and see if he can fax them first thing.
f: what if i can't speak to him directly?
m: ask his secretary to fax them. its the same thing. have them faxed over with a copy also faxed to martin’s office.
f: how do i find martin’s fax number? is he in your rollerdesk?
m: no, but you can also call their office and ask the secretary to give you their fax number. i’ll email you their office number later today.
f: ok, i'll get on it first thing.
m: be sure you do, i need those briefs asap
