Office口语 24办公室聚会

An office party

A: Mrs. Montgomery? I’ve been trying to figure out when we should have the New Year’s party. 

Could you take a book at these dates?

B: Sure. The twenty-ninth is out. I’ll be out of the office all day at a seminar¹. Either the twenty-eighth or the thirtieth is fine.

A: Well, why don’t we make it the thirtieth? We can set it up from three to five. 

That way, everybody can just go home afterwards.

B: Sounds good to me. You make up the invitations, I’ve got run. 

I’ve got a meeting in five minutes.
