Types of Meetings 


Susanna: All right, then. This meeting is over. We’ll meet again next week for a status update. 


Juan: Hey, do you have a few minutes to talk about tomorrow’s teleconference? 


Susanna: Sorry, I’ve got to run. I’m late for my department’s weekly brainstorming 1 session. Can it wait? 


Juan: Sure, how about a lunch meeting? 


Susanna: I can’t. I’m holding personnel meetings over lunch all this week. It’s the only way I can fit them in. 


Juan: Okay, how about at 3:00 this afternoon? 


Susanna: Sorry, I have a standing 2 meeting with the directors once a month at that time. Can you come by after the pitch meeting at 4:30? 


Juan: I wish I could, but our department head has called an emergency meeting for this afternoon to do some damage control after the shareholder 3 meeting debacle last week. Well, how about a dinner meeting? 


Susanna: Only if we can have dinner at 9:30. I won’t be finished here until then. 


Juan: Do you ever get a breather? 


Susanna: A breather? I think I’m due for one...in 2030.
