NEL 2 – UNIT 12: I NEED TO GET A PACKAGE TO AUSTRALIA A.S.A.P
Mr. Evans: Now about the travel documents for the Australian group, we’ve had everything mailed to them right?
Cheryl: Mr. Evans, we gave you the package of travel documents to give to Mr. Wells the other night at dinner before he flew home to Sydney?
Mr. Evans: A white envelope about this big?
Cheryl: Yes.
Mr. Evans: I gave it to Mr. Rashid before he left for Lebanon.
Cheryl: Oh, Mr. Wells needs those documents the day after tomorrow. His group is flying in on Thursday.
Marie: I’ll call the courier. If they can pick up a package by 5 pm, we should be okay.
Paul: That gives us an hour. I’ll reprint the tour information, but what about the travel guides. I can’t print 25 copies that fast.
Cheryl: I’ll call Copies to Go and have them reprint the travel guides.
Marie: They can’t do a rushed job. Call Harpers instead. They’re faster and much more reliable.
Hello, National Express. I need to get a package to Australia ASAP.
Paul: If the Harpers can’t make the color copies that fast, I’ll take black and white.
Cheryl: Bob, are you reprinting the tickets?
Bob: Yep.
Cheryl: Hello, I need to get 25 color documents printed right away.
Mr. Evans: Yes, it’s very much a hurry.
Cheryl: Who are you calling Mr. Evans?
Mr. Evans: What’s that?Oh,my tailor.
Cheryl: Your tailor?
Mr. Evans: These sleeves are too long. They’re driving me crazy.
