W: Mike, do you have a minute?
M: Oh, hi, Cathy. Sure. What’s up?
W: Well, I’ve been meaning to talk to you about the situation of the office.
M: I W: Oh, Jackie, I’ve had such a terrible day.
M: You look exhausted. What on earth have you been doing?
W: Oh, I’ve been such a fool! You just wouldn’t believe what I’ve done.
M: I would, I would. Come on...Where’s you been?
W: I’m dying to tell someone. I’ve been down to London, you see. OK, I thought I’d be very sensible, so I’d drive down to the Underground on the outskirts of London, leave the car and go in by tube. All right? Very sensible. Yes? OK. So I drove down to London and I parked ray car by the tube station and I got the tube into London: Fine! All right?
M: Well, sounds like it.
W: So far, so good. Right. I came back out of London and got out of the tube.
M: And you forgot the car?
W: No, no, I didn’t forget the car. I couldn’t find the ear, Jackie. It’d gone.
M: You’re kidding.
W: No, no, really, it’d gone. I walked out...happily out of the tube, you know, over to where it was and I looked and it was a red Mini and mine’s green, so I thought "Oh no". So having panicked a bit, I rang the police, you see, and this lovely, new little policeman...a young one came out to help. That’s it, yes...buttons shining...big smile...came down to help, so I said, "I’ve lost my ear. It’s been stolen." And I took him to see it and everything and...
M: You mean where it wasn’t.
W: And sure enough, it wasn’t there. And then he coughed a bit and he went very quiet.., and he took me back into the tube station and out the other side into the other car park, and there was my car, Jackie, parked in the other tube station car park, the other side of the station, because there are two exits, you see, so I walked out of an exit not knowing, there were two and it was in the other one.
M: Oh Lesley. And was he ever so cross?
W: He was livid, Jackie. He went on and on at me and I didn’t know what to do. It was just frightful. I went red and just shut up and said "Sorry" all the time.
M: Jumped in your car and left.
W: Oh, it was awful. I’m never doing that again ever.
m not in there very often. It’s so noisy that I can’t work,
W: That’s exactly what I’m getting at. We’re supposed to be able to do our preparation and marking in that office, but have you noticed? Simon constantly has students coming in to get help with his course. A lot of people are going and out.
M: Has anybody spoken to him about it?
W: No, not yet, but someone’s going to have to.
M: We can’t really ask him to stop having students come in for help, can we?
W: No, of course not. But I’m not able to do my work and neither are you. I imagine it’s the same for the others in the office.
M: Hmmm, could we ask for a kind of meeting room? When TA’s have to talk with a student, they could go to the meeting room and not use the office. You know, there’s a room down the hall, a rather small room, that we could ask to use. It’s only for storing supplies.
W: You mean the little storage room? Oh, that would be too small.
M: Are you sure? With the cabinets taken out, it might be bigger than it looks.
W: Come to think of it, you may be on to something, I’d like to have a look at that room. Can we go there now?
M: Sure. Let’s go.
