Sorting out problems
A: Rachel? I’m not sure how you want to handle this account. I think there are a few things to be sorted out.
B: I agree, Toni. I think the biggest problem we’re facing is how to bring it in under budget.
A: That’s true. But even beyond that, there’s the question of meeting the deadlines they’ve set.
B: Right. Look, why don’t we make a list of the problems we’re dealing with. It’ll be easier to work through them that way.
