The Importance of a Beating Bush named Mag

main characters of the play;
MAG - a manager with an extremely fickle mind.
CINDY - her agent
ME - a helpless bystander who happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time.

ACT ONE, Sunday in Office at 3pm

ME : (calling MAG on the phone) Hello, Hi MAG, this is ME. i'm calling because i heard CINDY is giving up her slots for the prudential tower roadshow next week. is it okay if i get some of her slots?

MAG : Hey! can! why not? i mean as long as the slots do not go to JK then its okay! you should liase with CINDY about this. Anyway CINDY said she has some back pains and i think its best that someone covers her slots.

ME : Oh okay then, i'll liase with CINDY and let you know tomorrow evening! Thanks!

MAG : No problem! Anyway... (DRONES ON ABOUT SOME STUFF UNRELATED TO THE MENTIONED TOPIC)

ME : (after 25 minutes on the phone) oh okay then thanks anyway! bye bye! ( puts down phone, releasing a sigh of relief )
