the Office
  (When James arrives at the office his secretary is already there。)
  James: Good morning; Stacy。
  Stacy: Good morning; Mr。 Goddard。 Mr。 Barnes asked to see as soon as you got in。
  James: Did he say what it is about?
  Stacy: No; but he said to ask you to e up to his office as soon as you arrive。 I assumeit's about the Wang account。
  James: I'm sure you are right。 Thank you; Stacy。 By the way; I brought some donuts。 Feelfree to help yourself。
  Stacy: Mr。 Goddard! You know I'm trying to watch my weight。
  James: I forgot。 Anyway; why don't you put them out so everyone in the office can helpthemselves。
  Stacy: What's the special occasion? I don't recall you ever bringing donuts for everyonebefore。
  James: Let's just say that I'm in a good mood today。 Well; I'd better get up to Mr。 Barnes'office。 Wish me luck。
  Stacy: Good luck!~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Situation 20 Mr。 Barnes' Office
  (James knocks on Mr。 Barnes' door and enters his office。)
  James: You asked for me; sir?
  Mr。 Barnes: Ah; Goddard。 Good; e right in。 Listen; I want to ask your opinion about afew things。 First; let me tell you again how pleased I am at the way you handled the Wangaccount。  As  you  know  this  is  a  huge  account  /  and  it's  going  to  require  its  ownmanagement team。
  James: Thank you; sir。
  Mr。 Barnes: Wang puters wants us to not only develop a new set of software for thenew operating system we are designing for them; but they also wants us to develop newmarketing strategies for this system。 Something similar to what Apple did with their newline of Macintosh puters。 That was a brilliant marketing idea to build the processorright  into  the  monitor。  And  you  know  how  successful  they  were  in  developing  greatadvertising for their new products。
  James: Yes sir。 Apple was able to regain their share of the market with the bination ofa great product and good advertising。
  Mr。 Barnes: Well; Goddard。 I need the team that can do the same thing for us and Wangputers。 I am thinking of making you the man in charge of putting this team togetherand managing it。 Do you think you could handle an assignment like that?
  James: Do you mean that I could choose my own team?
  Mr。 Barnes: With my approval of course。
  James: Yes sir。 I think with the right people working with me; that I can make the most ofour partnership with Wang puters。
  Mr。  Barnes:  Good。  That's  what  I  wanted  to  hear。  I  am  promoting  you  to  the  ExecutiveDirector in charge of the Wang account。 Now; you are going to need a good assistant。 Doyou have anyone in mind?
  James: Yes sir; I do。 Steve Dawson。
  Mr。 Barnes: Dawson!? From what I saw at the meeting yesterday; he didn't seem to be ateam player。 He was looking out for his own interest。
  James: Well; yes。 It did seem that way; but there are a few things you should know aboutSteve Dawson; sir。 First; he has been with the pany much longer than I have without a
  promotion / and the Wang account was his big chance。 That is why he was so aggressive。Second;  when  I  came  into  the  pany;  there  were  so  many  things  that  I  didn't  know。Steve was never selfish with his time and he taught me a lot。 Third; I think if he is given achance; he can develop a great advertising package for the new system we are developingfor our partnership with Wang puters。 Last but not least; Steve and I really work welltogether。
  Mr。 Barnes: I must say; I am impressed with your loyalty。 All right then; I want you totake Dawson to lunch today / and inform him of his promotion / to Assistant ExecutiveDirector in charge of the Wang deal。
  James: Thank you; sir。 I can assure you that you won't regret your decision。
  Mr。 Barnes: All right; Goddard。 That's all。 You can go。
  James: Yes; sir。
  Mr。 Barnes: Oh; Goddard; one more thing。
  James: Sir?
  Mr。 Barnes: You can put the lunch bill on your new executive expense account。
  James: Yes; sir!~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Situation 21 James' Office
  James: Stacy; would you get Steve Dawson on the line for me; please?
  Stacy:  Right  away;  Mr。  Goddard。  (Dials  Steve's  extension)  Mr。  Dawson;  this  is  Mr。Goddard's office; please hold for Mr。 Goddard。
  James: (Speaking on the phone) Good morning Steve; how's it going?
  Steve: James! Yeah。。。 I'm okay。 How are you?
  James:  I'm  doing  pretty  well  this  morning。  But  you  don't  sound  so  good。  Is  somethingwrong?
  Steve:  Well;  it's  just  that  I've  been  worrying  all  night  about  what  happened  yesterday。 Istill feel terrible about the way I acted in the meeting。
  James: Listen; I told you last night to forget about it。
  Steve: I know you did。 But I can't get over it so easily。 I really feel like I let you downyesterday。
  James: Look; do you have any plans for lunch today?
  Steve: Nothing special; why?
  James: Then why don't you let me buy you lunch today?
  Steve: Actually; I feel like I should buy you lunch。
  James: No; today lunch will be on me。 Should we meet at twelve o'clock; then?
  Steve: All right; I'll see you at noon。
  James: See you then; Bye。
  Steve: Bye。~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Situation 22 At the Restaurant
  Steve:  Wow;  this  is  a  really  expensive  place。  Are  you  sure  you  want  to  eat  here?  Whydon't we just go get a couple of sandwiches?
  James: Don't worry about that。
  (The waitress greets them。)
  Waitress: Good afternoon。 How many people today?
  James: Just the two of us。
  Waitress: Would you like a booth?
  James: That will be fine; thank you。
  Waitress: All right; follow me please。
  (James and Steve are seated。)
  Waitress: Here is our lunch menu with the specials listed on the right。 I would especiallylike to remend the steak and lobster bination。 The lobster is very fresh。
  Steve: I think I will just have the soup and salad special; please。
  James: What are you talking about? Why don't we both get the steak and lobster special?It sounds great。
  Steve: But James; that will be a sixty dollar lunch bill。 I know what your salary is / andyou can't afford lunches like this。
  James: Don't worry about it。 This goes on a pany credit card。
  Steve: But / we don't have pany credit cards。
  James: As of today; I have one。
  Steve: James! {Does} that mean that you got a promotion?
  James: Let's order first; then I'll tell you all about it。 Waitress; We'd like two of the steakand lobster specials。
  Waitress: Yes; sir。 And how would you like your steak?
  James: Medium rare; please。
  Waitress: And you; sir?
  Steve: Make mine medium well; please。
  Waitress: Fine。 Anything to drink today?
  James: Yes; I believe we will have two glasses of your best red wine。
  Waitress: Very good。 Will that be all?
  James: Yes; Thank you。
  Steve: Would you tell me what's going on? I'm dying of curiously。
