What does the man imply when he says, "I finished my project early"? 

M-Cn: Good afternoon, Ms. Dembo. I have some concerns- 68can I show you the report on our pasta production this week?

W-Am: Sure. What's the problem exactly?

M-Cn: Well, according to page two of the report, the pasta-cutting machine in our production line was working at less than 50 percent capacity yesterday. We were not getting as much output as we usually
do.

W-Am: I see. Let's shut down that machine right away. And I'll have a technician look at the motor and blade immediately. We have to fill a large order of pasta this week-that machine must be working well
so that we can produce the order on time.

M-Au: Ms. Batra, how does the stage look to you? Is the piano in the right place?

W-Am: The stage arrangement is fine. But can we make sure that there'll be enough background lighting? I want all the members of my band to be visible.

M-Au: Of course. But I'd rather do it when the rest of your band is here so I can be sure the lighting is right.

W-Am: OK. I'm meeting them for lunch and then we're coming back here to rehearse together this afternoon. We'll see you then

M-Cn: Mina, I was thinking about our travel plans for the industry conference we're going to in Boston. It's only two weeks away.

W-Am: Well, the three of us are all taking the same flight, so maybe we could ride together from the office to the airport. But, we'll be gone for several days, so the cost of parking would really add up.

M-Cn: True. You know, I think it's twenty dollars to take a taxi.

W-Am: That's a possibility. Let's ask Martin what he thinks.

W-Br: Hello, Mr. Tanaka. Welcome to Bike Solutions Consulting. When I heard that a representative from the Burrville City Council wanted to meet, I was very excited.

M-Cn: Well, we know your company helps cities set up their bike-share programs, and Burrville wants to set one up, too.

W-Br: That's great news! What are your goals for your program?

M-Cn: We want to encourage our residents to exercise as well as to reduce car traffic. But it's going to be a challenge convincing people to participate.

W-Br: We'll handle that. When cities partner with us, part of the service we provide is an advertising campaign. We'll produce television and radio commercials that will encourage community members to use the bikes.

W-Am: Thanks for stopping by, Vincent and Sanjay. The board of directors decided to purchase new security cameras, so someone from Menovar Technologies is coming tomorrow to deliver and install them.

M-Cn: It'll be good to have the latest equipment.

W-Am I agree. So Vincent, I'll need some of your Maintenance Department staff to help with the installation.

M-Cn: No problem. I'll send two people over to assist.

W-Am: Thanks.

M-Au: Will there be a training session for my security personnel to use the new camera system?

W-Am: Yes, Sanjay-Menovar Technologies suggested next Monday for the training. Is that OK for your team?

M-Au: Sure. How about ten o'clock?

W-Am: I'll e-mail Menovar right away to see if that works for them.
