Saying No

Choose who you want to be.

Ian

Could you cover my shift on Saturday?

Paula

I’m sorry, but I’ve already made plans.

Ian

Could you change them just this once?

Paula

I can’t. My sister is coming to stay.

Ian

What about working part of the day?

Paula

I’m afraid I’m not available at all.

Ian

I see. I’ll have to ask someone else.

Paula

Have you tried asking the manager?

Ian

Not yet. I thought I’d check with you.

Paula

She may know someone who wants overtime.

Ian

I’ll ask her. Thanks for being honest.

Paula

I hope you manage to find someone.
