A - Hello Mr. Johnson. Come into my office.
B - Thank you.
A - Have a seat.
B - Thanks.
A - So you'd like to apply for the administrative assistant position.
B - Yes.
A - Do you have experience as an administrative assistant?
B - Well, no. Not really.
A - Hmmm. We're looking for someone with some experience. Can you type?
B - Well, sort of. I use these two fingers to type. I type 5 words per minute!
A - Ahhh. Well, we hope to hire someone who can type a little faster. Do you speak any other languages? We want someone who is bilingual.
B - I can count to ten in Spanish, uno, dos, tres . . .
A - I'm sorry. We need someone who can do more than just count to ten. Why are you applying for this job?
B - Well, to be honest, the salary is really good. Right now I'm only making $5.00 an hour at Joe's Hamburger Palace. Also, I noticed that your secretary is really attractive. Is she single?
