I got two tickets to a show at the last minute and I tried to find someone to go with me. First, I called Amanda. The phone rang and rang and then her answering machine picked up.


"Hi, I'm not in right now. Leave me a message and I'll get back to you as soon as I can."


Amanda wasn't home or she was screening her calls. I didn't want to leave a message and decided 1 to try Celia. The phone rang about six times and then I heard,


"This is the voicemail for Celia. Leave me a message after the long beep. Or, you can try my cell 2 phone at 213-555-1212. Have a nice day.‚"


By this time, I was starting to feel discouraged 3. I didn't want to go to the show by myself, so I tried one last time. I called Leslie at work.


"Hello, you've reached the office of Leslie Munroe. I am in a meeting or with a client 4. I'm sorry to miss your call. Please stay on the line and leave a detailed 5 message. I will return your call as soon as I can. Thank you for calling.‚"


I decided to leave a message. Leslie called me right back and we made plans for the show. We had a great time.
