So, you start your new job tomorrow! Congratulations!
Thank you. I am so excited!
That is such great news!
I know. I’m a little overwhelmed, though. I am not exactly sure how I am going to get there in the morning.
What do you mean?
Well, I know I’m going to get there by bus, but I’m not sure which bus to take.Do you know your destination and route number?
I’m not sure.
Do you know how you are going to pay your fare?
I am not sure about that either. What would you recommend?

Hmmmmm… there are many things to consider when making a decision about that. If you pay with cash you must have exact change.
I also need to know the arrival time of the bus.
You definitely don’t want to miss the bus.
For sure. I’ll be travelling during rush hour, so I can’t miss the bus.
Maybe you should leave a little early, just in case.
Maybe I’ll come to your house to help you figure out which bust to take.
I’m running late, but I’m on my way!
Thank you!
That’s a good idea.
What time can you come?
