Two years ago I moved to a new neighborhood. There seem to be very few people in this
area who are without telephones, so I expected to get a new phone quickly. I applied for one
as soon as I moved into my new house. ‘We aren’t supplying many new phones in your
area’, an engineer told me. A lot of people want new phones at the moment and the company
is employing fewer engineers than last year so as to save money. A new phone won’t cost
you much money, but it will take a lot of time. We can’t do anything for you before
December. ‘You need a little patience if you’re waiting for a new phone and you need many
friends whose phones you can use as well. Fortunately, I had both. December came and
went, but there was no sign of a phone. I went to the company’s local office to protest. ‘They
told me I’d have a phone by December,’ I protested. ‘Which year?’ the assistant asked.

runway. Two passengers hadn’t boarded. If people check in but don’t board all the luggage
must be unloaded. All passengers had to get off the plane and all of them identified their
