W: All right. What do you want me to do, Mr. Davis?
M: Have a seat over there. How ere things going in the office?
W: Just fine, Mr. Davis, especially with recent personnel shifts.
M: Yes, I thought so. Well, I and the executive board feel that much of your improved performance in the main office is due to your conscientious efforts.
W: Oh, thank you, Mr. Davis. My job has certainly become easier since we computerized our record-keeping system. The equipment is convenient to use.
M: That’s true. But we are especially impressed with how your influence contributes to good office relations and improved staff attitude toward the work.
W: Well, thank you for your confidence in me. We do have a lot of good people in the office, and the new machinery is wonderful.
M: Yes, but machines are only as good as the people who use them. They can’t ensure harmony and efficiency in a staff.
W: That’s very true.
