A: This is John Smith in unit 23. Is this the apartment manager?
B: Hi. What do you need today?
A: I've got a broken living room window.
B: I'm sorry about that. How did it get broken?
A: I've got a good idea, but I'm not exactly sure.
B: Well, why don't you give me a few details?
A: I would bet a dollar to a dime that it's one of the local kids.
B: Do you have any support for that charge?
A: A baseball was on my living room carpet. I don't own a baseball.
B: Well, it sounds like someone hit a home run.
A: I saw them playing ball in the lot just before I went to the market.
B: Do you know for sure who they were?
A: All I did was glance at them before I left.
B: If you like, I'll call a repairman, but it might take a few days.
A: How about if I call my friend? He's a repairman and could probably fix it today.
B: Sure. Let me come over to see the damage right now, though.
A: Sure, come on over, but tell me, do I have to pay for this?
B: You're not responsible, so you don't pay. Tell him to bill me.
A: Well, lucky me. I was afraid that I was going to get stuck for the bill.
B: Maybe I'll install a camera on that end of the building to catch these kids.
