TALKING TO ACCOUNTS
ACCOUNTANT: Good morning. Accounts.
STOCK: I was wondering if you had already paid my invoice 9805.
ACCOUNTANT: In whose name, please?
STOCK: Stock International Enterprises.
ACCOUNTANT: And when was the invoice dated?
STOCK: February 27th.
ACCOUNTANT: Just hold on a second, please. No, it hasn't been paid yet.
STOCK: Well, do you normally pay by bank transfer or by cheque?
ACCOUNTANT: It depends.
STOCK: Would it be too much trouble to ask you to pay by cheque? We're in the process of changing banks, you see.
ACCOUNTANT: Fine. I'll just make a note of it; in case someone else deals with your invoice.
STOCK: Thank you. And when can I expect to receive the payment?
ACCOUNTANT: The Chief Accountant signs the next cheques on the 15th.
STOCK: That will do fine. Thanks once again.
ACCOUNTANT: Don't worry, I'll see to it myself. Your cheque will be in the post by the 16th.
STOCK: Thank you, goodbye.
