 A:The air conditioning is not working! We need to call a handyman before we start to fry in here!                                                                                                                                                                               
 B:Dan is on top of that. I think they are also getting  the handyman to fix the bathroom toilet that keeps  clogging up.                                                                                                                                                        
 A:That would be convenient. They might as well ask him to fix the electrical wiring. The circuit breakers  keep going out all the time. It’s really annoying!                                                                                                                   
 B:Yeah you are right. This office is falling apart! Frank told me the other day that the gutters outside were clogged and that’s why the parking lot was flooded.                                                                                                               
 A:I know! I was in ankle deep water trying to get to my car that day! The handyman definitely has his work cut out for him.
