Jared: I'm glad you could come – and you're in for a treat. This is a great place.

Mike: Great! What do you recommend?

Jared: I always like to hear what the specials are first, since I find they're always delicious. Otherwise, the tenderloin is terrific, as is the rack of lamb.

Mike: I don't eat meat. Do they offer a good vegetarian option?

Jared: Oh, certainly. They've got great pastas, for example.

Mike: Terrific. Now, why did you want to meet her Jared? I haven't made any changes to my orders. Have you got something up your sleeve?

Jared: Ha, no, not at all. It's just been a while since we sat down and I was hoping to get an informal account update from you. What's new in the office?
