Listen to a conversation.

A: I can't believe how long the checkout line is. I just need to grab a few things.
B: Yeah, tell me about it. I've been standing here for like fifteen minutes already, and it is just not moving.
A: I should've come earlier. I always forget how packed this place gets on Sunday afternoons.
B: Same here. Next time, I'm definitely just doing my shopping online. This is such a hassle.


Listen to a conversation.

A: I heard the east campus gym is getting new equipment next month. Did you see the notice?
B: Yeah, I did. Apparently they're replacing all the cardio machines. The old ones have been breaking down pretty regularly.
A: About time. I showed up last Tuesday and two of the treadmills were out of service.
B: Right. But it's only during the installation. The gym's going to be closed for about a week. They posted the exact dates on their website.
A: Oh, I didn't check that. I should probably look it up so I can plan around it.
B: Definitely. You don't want to show up and find it locked.


Listen to a conversation.

A: Good morning. I'm calling about the coffee machine on the third floor. It's been out of order since Wednesday.
B: Thanks for letting us know. We did receive one other report about that. Has it been affecting your team's workflow?
A: A bit, yes. People have been going down to the lobby café, which takes about ten minutes each way. It adds up.
B: Understood. I'll flag it as a priority repair and have someone look at it this afternoon. In the meantime, there's a another coffee machine on the second floor near the copy room if that helps.
A: That's good to know. I'll pass that along to the team.
B: And if the repair runs into any issues, we'll look into getting a temporary replacement brought in.


Listen to a conversation.

A: You seem stressed. Everything okay?
B: Not really. I've been trying to sort out my housing for next semester and the residence office keeps putting me on hold.
A: That's so frustrating. Did you at least fill out the preference form before the deadline?
B: That's the thing. I submitted it on time, but they say they have no record of it in their system. Now all the single rooms are gone.
A: That's awful. Have you talked to anyone in person? Sometimes it's easier to get things sorted face to face.
B: I went by yesterday, but the advisor I needed wasn't in. I'm going back tomorrow morning first thing.
A: Hopefully they can sort it out. If not, you could always appeal to the housing committee. My roommate did that last year and it worked out.
B: Yeah. That's a good idea. I'll see if I can get a meeting with them if it doesn't work out tomorrow. Thanks for the suggestion.
