Exercise 4

Скотт:

«10 часов утра. Директор-распорядитель прибывает в офис. Обнаруживает, что почта рассортирована неправильно. Двумя письмами должны заниматься другие сотрудники. Чтобы ответить на одно из писем, необходимо было сослаться на предыдущее, а его в папке не оказалось. Ежедневника под рукой тоже не оказалось. Из-за этого произошла заминка и путаница с договоренностью по телефону о встрече, а секретаря в тот момент в кабинете не было, так как она искала пропавшее письмо».
