English Week 2

Megan: Excuse me, sorry to trouble you. I was wondering if this desk was taken?
Honesto: Actually, I’m new around here. I’m not sure. I don’t think so.
Megan: All right then. Well, as long as no one else seems to be using it, I’ll just take a seat and try to get some work done. I’m Megan, by the way.
Honesto: Megan. Nice to meet you. My name is Honesto.
Megan: Nice to meet you too. Do you mind me asking where you’re from?
Honesto: Manila.
Megan: Manila! How interesting!
Honesto: Yeah it’s a great place. I’m here on a six sigma training.
Megan: Oh, I see. When did you get here?
Honesto: Just the day before yesterday.
Megan: Really! How are you liking it?
Honesto: So far so good.
Megan: Hey, you don’t think you could do me a favor, do you?
Honesto: Sure.
Megan: I can’t get this thermos open. Would you give it a try?
Honesto: Of course. There you go.
Megan: Thanks!
Honesto: Not at all. While you’re up, you wouldn’t mind helping me with this computer, would you?
Megan: Sure. What’s the problem?
Honesto: Well, I can’t seem to log in.
Megan: Try plugging your USB key in to another port. For some reason some of these computers don’t recognize one of the ports.
Honesto: Wow. That worked. Thanks!
Megan: No worries. Look, if you need anything, just let me know. They’re kind of understaffed here, so I’ve had to learn where to find everything myself. Honesto: I appreciate that. So where are you usually based?
Megan: Well, I’m from Atlanta, but for the last five years I’ve mostly been based in South America.
