1Listen All  |   Person A  |   Person BA:

"Barbara, did you finish the report on XYZ Company?"

B: "Yes. I just finished today."

A: "I would like to review them before we send the report. Can you give me a copy?"

B: "Sure. Would you like a hard copy?"

A: "No. Just send me the path to the location of the report. I'll look them over on my computer."

B: "Sure. I'll give you permission for the folder. You can find them at barbara01 slash XYZ. I'll give you permission right now."

A: "Great. Thanks."

2 Listen All  |   Person A  |   Person BA: "John, are you having problems with your network?"

B: "I think our whole network is down for upgrades. It should be back up in an hour."

A: "That's too late. I need the review documents from the company network share."

B: "I have a copy of that on my computer."

A: "Really? Can I get a copy?"

B: "Sure. But since the network is down, I'll have to put it on a disk for you."

A: "That would be great."

B: "Do you have a floppy disk?"

A: "I think I have one on my desk. Here it is."

B: "Ok. It's saving now. Here you go."

A: "Thanks. You saved me a great deal of trouble. I'm so glad you had a copy of this on your machine."

B: "No problem. I'm glad I could help."

3 Listen All  |   Person A  |   Person BA: "Don't we need a tax software to do this work?"

B: "Yeah. Don't you have it installed on your computer?"

A: "No. They said they would install it for me, but they didn't do it yet."

B: "Go ask your manager. He probably forgot."

A: "That's a good idea. Is there an instructional manual for this software?"

B: "It's in the second file cabinet under Software Applications."

A: "Thanks. I'll probably need it when I get the software."

B: "Actually, it's not that difficult to use. I think you should be able to figure it out without the manual. The manual is only good for advanced options that we don't really need."

A: "You're probably right. Many of the manuals I've read were not that helpful. Do you mind if I come to you for questions when I am using the software?"

B: "Not at all. Feel free to ask any questions. If I know the answer, I'll let you know."

A: "Great. I better go find the manager to get the software installed on my computer."
