M: Joe, could I have a word with you while you are having your coffee?
W: Of course, David. Let"s find a quiet corner over there.
M:
The manager asked me to tell you that he appreciated your efforts last year very much.
W: Thanks, David. That makes me feel a lot better. I tried my best, you know. You can tell him that I am grateful for his confidence in me.
M: Yes, I will certainly pass that on to him. Your sales figures for the last two years have been remarkably good.
W: Manchester is a good area to work in. There are a lot of businesses opening all the time.
I tried to make contact with the managers as soon as I knew a new company was starting up.
The early bird catches the worm, as they say.
M: I am sure that"s true. But it is more than that, isn"t it?
Joe, you seem to be very confident and this helps your sales.
W: Yes, I have been working on that for some time. I think that if I appear confident, people are more likely to buy our goods.
M: Well, you certainly seem successful at that. Your sales figures prove that.
I was wondering if you could give a short talk tomorrow afternoon on the idea of being confident as a sales representative.
Do you think you could put together something on that topic?
W: I think I could manage. I will work on it this evening.
M: I would be grateful if you could do that for me. I am sure the others would benefit from the talk.
What does the manager want the man to do?
