Lesson 1

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

Bob

I hate to break the news but our sales were down again last month

Down again Peter

Yeah these days everybody shopping at our competition honest Abe's furniture store

But everything in their cost an arm and a leg

That's true they do charge top dollar

And their sales people are very strange

They really give me the creeps

Well they must be doing something right over there meanwhile we're about to go belly-up

I'm sorry to hear that I thought my new advertising campaign would save the day

Let's face it, your advertising campaign was a real flop

Well

Then I'll go back to the drawing board

It's too late for that you're fired

what?You're giving me the ax?

Yes I've already found a new manager

She was sharp as a tack

can we even talk to this over?

After all ,I've been working here for 10 years

There's no point in arguing ,Bob.

I've already made up my mind.

Oh well! at least I won't have to put up with your nonsense anymore!

Goodbye to you and goodbye to this dead-end job.

Please leave before I lose my temper!
