What is true of the speakers’ meeting?

MB It’s good to run into you, Maxine. It must be two years since we last met! What have you been doing with yourself?
WB Well, right after I left Drake, I went to work for a small architecture firm uptown. It was a great job but the guy who ran it closed the business, and moved to Australia last year. Since then I’ve been working for myself, making ends meet with freelance work.
MB You know that we’ll always have a place for you if you decide to come back to work for a big firm.
WB I appreciate that. But I enjoy only taking on projects that I find interesting. And what about you? How have things been going at Drake?
