Yesterday Debbie had a job interview. She went downtown to the company. The interview was for
an accounting job. Debbie graduated university 3 months ago. Her interview was at 10:00 am. She
woke up at 7:00 am and left her house before 8:00 am. She waited for the bus, but it was late. She
was very worried because she did not want to be late for the interview. She tried to phone the
company to warn them, but her phone battery was dead. When the bus arrived, it was almost 9:00
am. Then the bus was slow because there were many other cars. The bus finally arrived at
Debbie’s stop at 9:45 am. Debbie ran from the bus stop to the office building. When she entered
she saw a sign that said the company was on the 24th floor. The elevator ride took almost 5
minutes because many people stopped at different floors. When Debbie arrived at reception, it
was 9:58. She was in time! “I am here to see Mrs. Lewis” said Debbie. The receptionist checked
her book and replied: “She is not here today. What is your name please?” “My name is Debbie
Gregson.” “Sorry Debbie, but your appointment is tomorrow.” Debbie checked her agenda. It was
true. She was there on the wrong day!
