Me: Hello?

Some Guy: Hello, William. This is Josh, from _I forgot the company name he said_. I understand youʼre interested in computers.Me: Yes. At th point Iʼm thinking, “Heʼs going to offer me a job for the summer. My prayers have been answered!”)_Jo: Woulyou be interested in a Pentium III processor for 400 dollars?
Me: No I wouldnʼt. (I was really disappoited about not getting the job, so I decided to disappoint him.)_Josh You wouldnklzwxh:0013t? Do you know anyone who would?Me: Impatnt yet polite)_ No, Iʼm afraid I donʼt.Josh: (Disappointed) You donʼt.Me: Nope. But thanks for the offer.
