- Good morning. This is James Parker calling from Ms. Samantha Young¡¯s office at Union, Inc. Ms. Young was scheduled to meet with, um, representatives from your company tomorrow to discuss a contract between our two firms. Unfortunately, something urgent has come up¡¦ Ms. Young had to fly out to New York. Would it be possible to reschedule the meeting for some time later in the next week? Ms. Young is very serious about making a contract with your company, and she¡¯d like to do it as soon as possible. As you can see, her schedule is¡¦ very busy, but I think we can, um, fit in the meeting this Wednesday, or, uh, maybe Thursday. Would either of those days be okay for you? Please call me back so we can decide on a new time for the meeting. The number here is 999-1234. Thank you.
- Good afternoon, Mr. Parker. I got your call about the change of plans. I told our representatives that the meeting schedule would be changed. Unfortunately, we have something to deal with on Wednesday, but on Thursday we will be able to meet Ms. Young. I hope she will be free at that time. Thank you for your call, and I would like to see you on Thursday. Goodbye
