there may be a few minutes  of overtime involved oh guys that's right this is a night two girls Bowl isn't it and I imagine  you want to get away on time well I'll tell you what I'll get right on it to have it to you as  soon as I can okay okay John you have a minute oh gee Dan I'm awful busy what's on your mind  look I've got to have some cost estimates on these new jobs for the old man right away fact is  he says he's got to have my tomorrow he thought you could help me I don't know why does everything  have to happen all at once oh well okay I guess I can spare you a few minutes come on in huh takes  you here how close I came to getting a hole in one but John if we convert the upper structure of the  chassis of plastic that may save considerably on the cost as a matter of fact we had them do that  with one of the models in the experimental stage and showed it to the sales department how do  you like it come in are they raised oh she's really quite a model John where do you see her  she's got the prettiest shape you've ever seen yes Nancy it's a report to Mr Murphy if we don't  get to him pretty soon we'll never get them out in time golly it's 2 30 already I'm sorry Nancy  I'll get him out just a little while Dan I've got to get those cost reports out ready for the girls  whoa John they're just a couple of other items I need to check with you believe me the old man's  hot on this one how about tonight I'd like to Dan but I can't I got to go to a company Auditor's  meeting well look let me just check this one other ultimate on the drawing right now it'll only take  a minute and then tomorrow why we can wind it up we're never going to get that report done and  get to the bowling alley on time what are they talking about in there that's so important women  naturally when I went in there to ask him about it he and Dan Tobin were talking about some  model with the prettiest shape in the world men well finally oh why doesn't he hurry up with that report  he knows we have to get to the alley by six and they can't start without it well we'll  just have to skip dinner and go right on over there we'll be lucky to make it even  then well that just makes me mad if he'd given us that report when he said he  would we could have had it half done by now here it is Nancy get right on it now  with you girls now it's all finished except I'd like to have you check the addition of  the figures in this column here okay okay find me he's the one that's supposed to be the expert on figures from what I heard  well come on girls let's get going well girls looks like everything's coming along  all right I'm real sorry that I got this work out to you so late but I want you to know I appreciate  very much you staying over to do it say uh Nancy when you get finished with  it will you uh put it on Mr Simmons desk he's coming in tonight to study it well I'd I'd stay and help if there were  anything I could do but uh well I guess it's in your hands now well good  night girls see you in the morning I'm ready for some more see you in the morning I'll tell  you one thing it'll be a cold day before I work overtime for him again me too hello Murphy oh yes JB

yeah yes Nancy will you and the girls  come in here for a minute girls Mr Brewster just called and he wants a  cost report on that new MX2 by tomorrow noon so I'll finish the figures tonight tomorrow morning  but I'm going to have to have somebody come in to type it up so who's going to volunteer  oh that's right Joan you're out you start your vacation tonight don't you yes Mr Murphy  all right Nancy it's up to either you or Alice well gosh Mr Murphy I'd  really like to help you but uh Well Jack and I already have reservations down at  the lake for the weekend and my mother-in-law is coming in town so I couldn't possibly come in  now look here somebody's going to come in here to Brewster once that report and he's going to  get it now how about some cooperation around here well well Mr Murphy we don't think it's fair  of you to ask us to work overtime like this without some sort of notice we we feel that  cooperation works both ways well of course it does what are you talking about well we had  to miss our bowling meeting a couple of week weeks ago because of the last monthly report  oh I'll be I explained to you that it was urgent business that delayed those figures and  I told you I was sorry what else do you want me to do well we just feel that you might have made  something special effort to see that we got the figures in time so that we wouldn't have had to  work late Alice I did my best to get them to you on time I thought I could ask a little sacrifice  every now and then I don't ask too much of you girls sacrifices you left at five and we were  the ones who were left to finish with the work and after you spent all afternoon talking about  women women what are you talking about now you girls look here my leaving had nothing to do  about delaying that report I don't know why I can't get some cooperation around here cooperation  how far do you want us to cooperate you're the one who went home and we're the ones that stayed and  worked Alice what do you think cooperation is well
