(Narrator):
Hello, this is Adam, your assistant. As you know, we are scheduled to host a book launching event with several famous authors. We have been advertising the event and I even made some posters to get as many people as possible. We put the posters up everywhere a couple of weeks ago. Everything was going really well until I noticed something was wrong. I saw some posters and noticed I mistakenly put the wrong date on them. The event is supposed to be on Tuesday, April 25th but I accidentally put Friday, April 27th. We don’t have a lot of time left to advertise the book release event and I’m very worried that unless we fix this problem immediately nobody will attend. This could be a huge disaster for our store’s reputation with both our customers and the famous authors. Since you are my manager, I was hoping you could give me some advice on how to fix this problem. As you know, there isn’t a lot of time left so please call me back soon as you hear this message. Thank you! Bye!
