CAR RENT SALES ASSISTANT: What can we do for you, sir?

HARRY: I'd like to rent a car, please.

SALES ASSISTANT: That's what we're here for, sir. I know you're going to enjoy renting from us. Our motto is: “A happy customer is a customer for life”.

HARRY: Yes. Look, I'm in a bit of a hurry.

SALES ASSISTANT: What kind of car would you like, sir? Large or small? Sedan or station wagon? We have Nissans, VWs and Fords.

HARRY: I don't care.

SALES ASSISTANT: Or would yu prefer a Mercedes for a little extra luxury?

HARRY: Look, any car will do; give me a Nissan sedan.

SALES ASSISTANT: A Nissan sedan, that’s wonderful. Now, would you like your Nissan with or without a sunroof? Would you like a two-door or a four-door model? Our philosophy is: let the customer choose, and -

HARRY: Look, I don't care how many bloody doors it's got! I just want a car, with 4 wheels, that goes! As soon as possible, OK?

SALES ASSISTANT: We're here to give you whatever you want, sir. Now, how are you going to pay? Are you a member of our Executive Rent Club?

HARRY: No, I'm not.

SALES ASSISTANT: Would you like to have a quick look at this brochure, and then you can fill in the membership form? Members of our Executive Rent Club can also belong to our special Executive Travel Club with the possibility of many wonderful travel offers. For example –

HARRY: Look, I don't want to become a member of any club. I'm not an executive. I don't want anything, except a car. Can I just pay for it and take it away, please?

SALES ASSISTANT: Certainly, sir. How would you like to pay?

HARRY: Do you accept credit cards?

SALES ASSISTANT: Most certainly, sir! Could I have a look at your card, please?

SALES ASSISTANT: I'll just have to go and check this, if you don't mind, sir. While you're waiting, I'm sure you'd like to read this brochure about our Family Travel Club. Won't be a moment!

HARRY: Hurry up, for God’s sake!
