#Person1#: We'Ve got a lot of work to do now, but take your time over this project. We don't want to make any mistakes.
#Person2#: Ok. I should have it finished by Friday afternoon. Then I can check those account over the weekend. We need to have them finished by Monday, right?
#Person1#: That's right. We'll finish them just in time. The Macy project can wait for the time being. We need to spend several days on that project, but it isn't due to be finished until the end of the month, so we have plenty of time to get it done.
#Person2#: Some next week on, we should be in less of a rush.
#Person1#: I'm going to give everyone on the team an extra day off. Everyone deserves it.
#Person2#: Don't say that yet. A new project could suddenly appear.
#Person1#: That's true. Right. I'm going back to the meeting. It's been going on for hours and there's no indication that it'll end soon.
#Person2#: Carol said that she would spend some time checking that everyone is up-to-date with their work.
#Person1#: Good. I have to go right now. I really hope this meeting doesn't last too long.
#Person2#: They usually go on for ages.
#Person1#: I'll stop by if I have time later. Make sure everyone knows that we must stick to the deadlines.
#Person2#: I will. Enjoy your meeting!
#Person1# and #Person2# will finish one project on time by Monday. Then, they will have enough time for the Macy project. #Person1# goes back to the meeting which has lasted for long and asks #Person2# to ensure that everyone sticks to the deadlines.
