What's the problem?
What can I do for you?
I need some information.
I need your advice.
Business wasn't very good last year,
but this year it's better.
Hello?
Sorry, I can't hear you.
The kids are making too much noise.
What are they doing?
Ann's watching a video...
in the living room.
Paul's listening to rock music...
in his bedroom.
What are you doing?
I'm busy in the kitchen.
I'm trying to make dinner.
Well, I'll call back...
a little later.
How's that big project going?
Well, we're making progress.
Slowly but surely.
That's good to hear.
In fact, we expect to finish...
by the end of the month.
What about you?
We're having some problems...
in the office.
Well, don't get depressed.
Let me buy you a drink.
Thanks, but it's getting late.
Maybe next time.
