B - In the Commerce Building on the third floor. I work in real estate.
A - Really?! I work on the tenth floor. I work in the newspaper office.
B - I love working downtown but parking is so crazy here I started taking the subway.

B - Neither can I. Have you worked downtown for long?
A - For about five years now.
B - So have I. I've worked here for five years and two months to be exact.
A - It was hard to get used to all of this traffic because I'm from a much smaller place. I was born in Rockford, Illinois.

B - I went to Guilford High School.
A - No way! So did I.
