lesson 01 bob's day at work

bob works as a manager in a furniture store. peter, his boss, is not happy about sales. bob's new advertising campaign hasn't helped. peter decides to fire him.

peter: bob, i hate to break the news, but our sales were down again last month.

bob: down again, peter?

peter: yeah. these days, everybody's shopping at our competition, honest abe's furniture store.

bob: but everything in there costs an arm and a leg!

peter: that's true. they do charge top dollar.

bob: and their salespeople are very strange. they really give me the creeps!

peter: well, they must be doing something right over there. meanwhile, we're about to go belly-up.

bob: i'm sorry to hear that. i thought my new advertising campaign would save the day.

peter: let's face it: your advertising campaign was a real flop.

bob: well then i'll go back to the drawing board.

peter: it's too late for that. you're fired!

bob: what? you're giving me the ax?

peter: yes. i've already found a new manager. she's as sharp as a tack.

bob: can't we even talk this over? after all, i've been working here for 10 years!

peter: there's no point in arguing, bob. i've already made up my mind.

bob: oh well, at least i won't have to put up with your nonsense anymore! good-bye to you and good-bye to this dead-end job.

peter: please leave before i lose my temper!
