W: If that man gives me any more letters to type, I’ll scream. He’s given me ten already today, and there’ll be more when I get back from coffee break. I’ll be here till midnight.

M: Calm down, Franny. He can’t make you stay after 5 p.m. Finish what you can, and leave the rest for Mary.

W: But they’re important letters, Joe. They should go out tonight.

M: That’s not your worry. If they’re that urgent, he should have given them to you earlier.
