Melanie: Hi, Sam. How was your interview?
Hi, honey.... Well, I thought the interview itself went really well.
Melanie: Then why the sad face?
Sam: I think I failed. I was late getting there.
Melanie: Oh, no. Really? What happened?
Sam: I missed the train. The interview was supposed to start at 10. Well, I was at the train station by 8:30.
I bought my ticket, and then I put my wallet down for a few seconds. When I turned around, it was gone. I spent ten or fifteen minutes trying to find it. But I never did.
Melanie: What did you tell the interviewer?
Sam: The truth. I said I'd missed the train. And I said I was sorry for being late.
Melanie: Didn't you tell him about your wallet?
Sam: No. I was sure he'd think I was just making an excuse. I don't think he even believed me about missing the train.
Melanie: What did he say at the end of the interview?
[24] Sam: He said my qualifications were really good and he'd be in touch. You know, "Don't call us. We'll call you."
