Man: Do you want to share a taxi to the airport? We can save on expenses that way, and as you know the company is trying to cut costs.
Woman: Actually I'm not flying. I'm going to the conference by bus. I have to leave tomorrow because it's going to take two days to get there.

Man: Thanks. I'm expecting a call from my lawyer. He's supposed to be sending me some changes to the contracts.
Woman: I'll make sure to take a detailed message if he calls. Is there anything you want to tell him?
