Sales person: May I be of any assistance?
Shirley: I want to have a look at the microwave ovens.
Sales person: You can have a broad choice here. Are you interested in a particular brand?

Sales person: Yes, we do. What a great taste you have! But we only have one left in stock.
Shirley: Really? How so?
Sales person: You know a good product will always sell! Would you mind waiting for a while, we'll get it right away.
