Episode 18: I've been kicked out

Olivia: Hi there Harry!

Harry: Hello Olivia. How’s it going?

Olivia: Not bad...what are you reading?

Harry: Just checking the jobs page of the local newspaper...

Olivia: More? I thought you already had too many job offers to choose from...

Harry: Well, I have...but there’s no harm in looking, is there?

Olivia: Suppose not.

Harry: You’ve got to know what’s going on...

Magda: Keep ahead of the game!

Harry: Exactly!

Magda: I think the internet is a better place to look for jobs, though...

Harry: You’re probably right, but I spend all day sitting in front of computers. It’s nice to have a change every now and then. So, Olivia, any more thoughts on what we talked about... your website?

Olivia: Yeah...well...like I said, I’d love you to do it!

Harry: Great – I’d love to do it. Now then, normally, for a job like that, I’d ask about a grand...

Olivia: A grand!

Magda: What’s a “grand”??

Olivia: A thousand pounds.

Magda: Phew! That sounds like a lot...

Olivia: It is!

Harry: It isn’t really...that’s what these things cost now...if you take into account the work I’ll have to put into it, and all my time...

Olivia: Maybe...

Harry: But anyway, because we’re friends, I’ll do it for say, seven fifty...?

Olivia: Seven hundred and fifty...hmm...well...can you let me think about that? I’ll get back to you in a day or two.

Harry: Sure! No probs!

Fadi: Hi 

All: Hi there!

Fadi: Hang on, I’ll just get a coffee and then I’ll be with you......ok, cheers! So, how’s it going?

All: Good...fine...not bad!

Fadi: Harry – thought any more about that offer?

Harry: Sure, yeah... I’m up for it! I’ll do it, no problems.

Fadi: Great, we really need it. What kind of costs are we looking at?

Harry: Well, the basic package will be fifteen hundred...

Fadi: Hmmmm....

Harry: Then for upgrades and maintenance, well, up to two five...

Fadi: Two thousand five hundred quid?

Magda: Quid?

Olivia: Pounds.

Fadi: You don’t come cheap, do you Harry?

Harry: I’m good at my job.

Fadi: I’ll have to have a word with my uncle...see if I can clear it with him. I’ll get back to you.

All: Hi there!

Olivia: What’s up Sarah?

Sarah: Just had some bad news...

Magda: Oh no! What’s the matter?

Sarah: I’ve just been kicked out of my flat!

All: Oh no!

Magda: Kicked out?

Olivia: She has to leave...find another place to live...
