----------------------------------------------------------------

KEN: The air conditioner is struggling. I have been looking at the budget for a new unit.

KAREN: My grandmother used to say the only way to beat July was to put ice cubes in a bowl and sit with your feet in it. She would freeze Kool-Aid into cubes.

BOLDO: I have prepared an assessment of the desk fan. It moves 42 cubic feet of air per minute.

KEN: That is good to know. But we also need to discuss school supplies. The back-to-school order needs to go in. We have fifty dollars in the petty cash for pencils and notebooks.

KAREN: Oh, that reminds me. My brother once knew a man who bought all his school supplies in July and kept them in a cool basement. By September, the pencils were perfectly sharpened.

BOLDO: The pencils in the supply closet are number two. They are adequate for note-taking.

KEN: I will approve the order. But we need to stick to the basics. No fancy erasers.

KAREN: I brought a bag of ice from home. My grandmother used to say the only way to survive July was to keep something cold against your wrists.

BOLDO: I have prepared an assessment of the break room floor. It is cooler than the hallway.

KAREN: The fan helps a little. It just moves the warm air around.

BOLDO: School supplies are in the break room. Crayons. They smell like summer.

KAREN: I always buy extras in July. The sales are better than August. My brother once bought a whole case of notebooks in June and forgot about them until September.

BOLDO: The crayons are not melting. That is good.

KAREN: The printer just started. That thing is louder than my grandmother’s old washing machine.

BOLDO: It is printing a list of summer activities. I do not know who requested it.

KAREN: Probably Ken. He likes everything organized before the pool goes up.

BOLDO: I should go outside. The heat is making my focus medium.

FACILITIES UPDATE

The elevator inspection is scheduled for next Tuesday. Bill will be present. He may or may not bring the hammer.

KAREN: My grandmother always said the key to summer is a cold dessert. I have been experimenting with Jell-O and ice cubes.

BOLDO: I have prepared an assessment of the desk fan's airflow.

KAREN: Is it adequate?

BOLDO: For two people standing still. Not for three.

KAREN: I brought some school supplies from the back-to-school display at the drugstore. Notebooks. Pencils. They were on sale.

BOLDO: The pencils have a good grip. I tested one outside on the asphalt.

KAREN: In this heat? The parking lot looks like a puddle from here.

BOLDO: The pencil did not melt. The lead broke when I tried to write on a rock.

KAREN: I suppose that is a fair assessment. Would you like some Jell-O? I used lime and added crushed ice.

BOLDO: I will accept one portion. Then I need to go outside again to test the notebook's water resistance.

KAREN: The Epson is printing. I can hear it from here.

BOLDO: The Epson FX-80 is loud. The notebook will muffle the sound if placed on top.

KAREN: I think Ken would prefer we do not place notebooks on the printer.

BOLDO: Understood. I will test the notebook under the desk fan instead.

ONE MORE THING

KAREN: I just want to say that the school supplies today reminded me of something my grandmother used to say.

KEN: Do not say it.

KAREN: She said the best things arrive when you are not waiting for them.
