- The caller
Hi, do you have a table for four on Saturday evening?
- TALON
Good evening. I am an assistant, not a person. Saturday at 8:30 pm I have a table for four: shall I confirm it?
- The caller
Yes, under Rossi.
- TALON
Done: Saturday, 8:30 pm, four people. The confirmation is on its way to your email.

- The caller
It’s Bianchi, I booked with you last week.

Welcome back. I see Tuesday’s booking: the same time, on Thursday?
- The caller
Thursday is fine.

Thursday at 7 pm is free: confirmed.
