Can I ask you a favor?
A: Um, sorry to bother you, um... my name is Rachel. I’m new here. Can I ask you for a
favor?
B: Hi Rachel, welcome on board. I’m afraid I can’t help you right now. I’m getting
ready for a very important meeting.
A: Excuse me, but can I bother you for a
sec?
C: You know what, I’d love to help you, but I’m about to meet an important client. Do you wanna try Sean instead? He sits right over there.
A: Sorry to interrupt you Sean, could you
do me a quick favor?
D: Actually, I’m working on a document
that is due in a couple minutes. I really
can’t talk to you right now. Sorry about
that.
A: Geeze! I just want to know where the
bathroom is! What’s wrong with you
people!
