A: Hello, this is Albert.
B: Hi. I'm Jack. You called about the room for rent. Are you still interested?
A: Yes, I am.
B: I was wondering if I could ask you a couple of questions.
A: Shoot.
B: I just want to be sure that we get along.
A: I agree with you 100 percent--we must get along.
B: Are you a party animal?
A: Oh, no. I'm a very quiet person.
B: Great! Next: Are you neat or are you a slob?
A: I'm a pretty neat person.
B: Are you a night owl or a day person?
A: Early to bed, early to rise.
B: Finally, do you smoke?
A: Actually, I quit smoking four years ago.
B: Excellent answers. Do you have any questions for me?
A: Just one: Is there a parking lot?
B: Unfortunately, you have to park in the street.
A: Well, I'm desperate. I'll take it anyway.
B: Great! Let me know when you're ready to move in.
A: I think it will be tomorrow if that's okay.
B: No problem. I'll be here all day tomorrow.
