A - Hello Mr. Johnson.  Come into my office.

B -  Thank you.

A - Have a seat.

B - Thanks.

A - So you'd like to apply for the administrative assistant position.

B - Yes.

A - Do you have experience as an administrative assistant? 

B - Well, no.  Not really.  

A - Hmmm. We're looking for someone with some experience.  Can you type?

B - Well, sort of.  I use these two fingers to type.  I type 5 words per minute!

A - Ahhh.  Well, we hope to hire someone who can type a little faster.  Do you speak any other languages?  We want someone who is bilingual.

B - I can count to ten in Spanish, uno, dos, tres . . .

A - I'm sorry.  We need someone who can do more than just count to ten.  Why are you applying for this job?  

B - Well, to be honest, the salary is really good.  Right now I'm only making $5.00 an hour at Joe's Hamburger Palace.  Also, I noticed that your secretary is really attractive.  Is she single?
