Conversation 139 (Listen and Read)

It seems strange the electricians haven't shown up yet.

I thought they were coming at 9 am to replace all the lights and add more outlets around the office.

I forgot to tell you.

The secretary at the company emailed me about 20 minutes ago.

The delivery of the lightbulbs was caught up at customs,

so they can't replace them today.

They will be here this afternoon to add the new outlets though.

Oh, dear.

I knew importing the fixtures could be risky.

When are they expected to come in?

The photographer's coming to take new pictures of the office on Monday morning.

She said that she spoke to the courier and the fixtures will be in by this afternoon.

They already organized a few workers to come in over the weekend

to make sure the project is completed before Monday morning.
