Today's Dialogue.

A: There you are, Jordan! Please be punctual. Everyone has been waiting for you.
B: Really? I didn’t know everyone was waiting for me. I just got railroaded into this meeting when I was about to
go out for lunch.
A: Oh, cut it out ! It’s a company emergency, so it’s all hands on deck ! We need to lay out plan to deal with the new
law passed by the government.
B: Since I didn’t have time to think, off the top of my head we could move production from our overseas factories to
domestic ones so that we listen to the government requiring at least 30% domestic manufacturing.
A: That is a good preliminary plan. Let’s get that started and then we can think of a better long term solution.
