A: Do you carry black ink? B: The ink should be next to the paper clips and thumb tacks in the stationary section, sir. A: I've looked, but I didn't see any black ink. B: Then I'm afraid there's none in stock. A: Well, I'll settle for blue-black. I'll also take a dozen airmail envelopes. B: They come in packages of ten or twenty. A: Give me a package of twenty, then. And where do I find shoelaces? B: On counter three. A: Thank you. I never can find my way around this store. B: I know. It took me three weeks, and I work here.
