Molly : Really, why do you say that?

Gordon: You are proficient with the computer program word 97, right?

Molly : You bet, that's right. So what can I do for you?

Gordon: I need you to help me polish and edit my invoice. Do you have free time now?

Molly : It would be my pleasure to help you get proper payment for services rendered. Here we go, let's begin. Oh, you forgot to ask for prompt payment.

Gordon: Is that important?

Molly : Of course, the longer you wait, the easier it is for them to forget.

Gordon: Is there anything else wrong?

Molly : You forget to put your phone number on the invoice. If there were a discrepancy (difference), then the company would like to call you ASAP.

Gordon: Thanks for your help.

Molly : My pleasure, any time. I know what it is like to be a freelance worker. Bye.
