Miss Ruby Spice had arranged to meet your employer, Mr. Micheal Chan at his office at a.m. Today. At 9.30 a.m. she telephoned to say that the roads into the city had been closed due to floods from the previous night flash flood. She has no other form of transportation so she would not be able to attend the meeting. She suggested an alternative date and time next week and asked if your employer would confirm this. Miss Spice asked you to pass on her apologies. Write out an appropriate message for him. 2

Then write out the telephone message as it should have been written if the call had been dealt with efficiently. Operator: Aurora, hello. Customer: I’d like to speak to George Freeman, Sales Manager, please? Operator: Who’s calling? Customer: Ellie McDeal Operator: Sorry he’s not in. Customer: Really? And when will he be back? Operator: Actually, he went out for lunch 2 hours ago and I was expecting him back ages ago. Customer: Would you please pass on a message that I called? Operator: Hang on, I’ll find a pen. OK, fire away. Customer: My number is and I want to talk to him about my order number ST dated 12 August. Operator: Okey dokey. I’ll pass it on. Cheers. Customer: Goodbye! 3
