Some time ago, Louise applied for a job in a dental office and last Thursday she went for an interview. When she was shown into the office manager’s office, he told her to sit down and asked her if she smoked. She told him that she did occasionally but she didn’t like to when she was working. Then he asked her where she had worked before and she told him she had spent six years as a receptionist in a doctor’s office. He wanted to know if she could use the computer and she replied that she could. He gave her a test and then said he would like to offer her the job. She thanked him and asked when he wanted her to start working. He replied that as soon as she liked and she said she would be there on Monday morning.
Can it be "She promised to be there on Monday morning"? |
