[Phil] Hey, Joe, we’ve got just a couple of hours to get this rigging done.

[Joe] Yeah, they never give us enough time to do this.

[Phil] I hear you. Sometimes it feels like a race against the clock, but I noticed you’ve been spending a lot of time on your phone. Is everything OK?

[Joe] Sort of. The baby was up all night crying, and my wife and I hardly slept.

[Phil] Oh! Sorry to hear that. Is she OK? I mean, she’s not sick or anything, right?

[Joe] We couldn’t see anything wrong, but Sheila made an appointment with the pediatrician. And then when she went to leave, the car wouldn’t start.

[Phil] When it rains, it pours, huh? What’s up with the car?

[Joe] I think it’s just a dead battery, but Sheila’s freaking out. No sleep, crying baby, and now she’s having to deal with getting the car fixed. That’s why all of this back-and-forth on the phone today.

[Phil] Wow! Yeah, that’s a lot to deal with. Maybe you should just go home and help her out.

[Joe] Can’t. I’ve already taken so much time lately with the new baby and all. I hardly have any paid time off left, and I’m saving that for a real emergency.

[Phil] Well, if you don’t think this is an emergency, maybe you could just let her know that you’ll check in with her in a couple of hours? I’m concerned that the distractions and interruptions are putting this rigging job at risk. I know it would be difficult for me to keep focused and remember where I left off.

[Joe] Well, I guess I could, but I’m not sure that’s gonna set well with Sheila.

[Phil] <Laughs> Oh, yeah, I know what you mean. But if we don’t get this right and done on time, you’re gonna have much bigger problems on your hands.

[Joe] You make a good point. OK, I’ll send her one last text and then let’s get down to business!
