A: Well today’s topic is the management’s proposal on flexitime. What are your views on this?
B: I think it’s a very practical idea. Our staff members would be happy. It’s been complained that the present working time is too restricted. They say there should be flexible days.
A: In what ways?
B: The staff should be allowed to build up a credit of hours to entitle them to take a few hours or a day off.
A: But don’t you think there would be chaos?
B: What do you mean by "chaos"?
A: No one in any department would know who was in at what time. And people phoning the company or visiting would get terribly confused.
B: Well, I’m sorry to interrupt. In my opinion, cover arrangements could be made. When people take holiday or when people are sick the same kind of arrangements is made.
A: Er... Mr. Brown, what are your opinions?
B: Frankly, I think it’s hard for our section to have flexitime. There are three of us in our section and we work as a team. So if we had anyone off then we wouldn’t be able to manage.
[Materials are collected.]   [The interlocutor asks one or more questions as appropriate, to extend the discussion.]
Have you noticed any companies that have flexible working time? Do these companies go well?
B: Well, I have a friend whose company runs a flexible working schedule. But his company isn’t running well at all. People phoning the company find there is no answer, vistors come there to find there the door is locked. They are terribly con-fased.
