A: Well, if it isn’t Nick!

B: Alex! It’s nice to see you again!

A: You know Nick I’ve been meaning to call you for a long time.

B: Me, too. How have you been?

A: Fine. How about yourself?

B: Pretty good.

A: Tell me Nick. The last time I saw you, you were planning to apply for a new job?

B: Yes, I guess I was. But as it turned out, I changed my mind.

A: Oh, really? But if I remember correctly, you were intent on going to work for a large company. Whatever made you change your mind?

B: Well, it’s a long story, and I don’t want to bore you with all the details.

A: What has happened?

B: It turned out not to be a good idea.

A: Why? Big companies are very reliable.

B: You are quite right. But they require their applicants to have much experience of working as top managers. As you know I graduated from the institute three years ago.

A: What a pity!

B: And how about you? The last time we talked didn’t you tell me you were going to open your own real estate business?

A: That’s right, I was. But things turned out differently.

B: But you seemed so determined to do that. What happened?

A: Well, it’s so complicated, and I am sure you don’t want to know all the details. But as it turned out I decided that opening my own real estate company just wasn’t for me. So I decided to stay at my old job instead.

B: Well, a lot sure has happened since we last saw each other.

A: I’ll say! You know we should try to stay in touch.

B: Yes, we should. Let’s have lunch together sometime soon.

A: Good idea.

B: Take care now.

A: You too.
