A: Hi, I'm John Sandals, and I have a reservation.
B: Would you show me your ID, sir, please?
A: Here you go.
B: Thank you very much. Now, sir, do you have a credit card?
A: Certainly! Would you like my American Express card?
B: Regrettably, Mr. Sandals, we accept only MasterCard or VISA.
A: I thought American Express was accepted everywhere. Never mind. Here's my VISA.
B: Thanks. You're in room 507, a big, nonsmoking room, with a queen bed. Is that okay, sir?
A: Yes, that's just fine.
B: I'm happy to hear that. Here is your key. Just dial 0 if you need anything.
