ОБЩЕНИЕ /COMMUNICATION/Getting ThroughGeorge: What's wrong, Pam?
Pam: I've lost my drivers lisence! I swear, I've looked everywhere by now.
G: Oh, is that what you were up to the whole morning?
P: Yes, I've been looking for hours. I can't find it. It's horrible.
G: Are you sure you haven't left it in the car? Or at friends'? You were out last night.
P: I already called Lucy, she says she can't find it at her house either. Oh, what should I do?
G: Well, you'r in luck. I have an afternoon off. Do you want me to drive you to the DMV and you can get a new card. It's just 20$ and it takes an hour at most.
P: But what if I find it later?
G: You can't help that, can you? Besides, you always complained that your picture is ugly. This is your chance to get a new one.
P: I suppose. I do need the license, and I can't afford to wait for long and have people drive me all the time.
