In which S has a job interview.

I was on the phone with my brother, N, who was calling to tell me he’d made it into his school’s challenge math program. N is thirteen. I have a friend named T. T does not know S very well. T only knows what I have told him about S.

M: Wow, N, that’s awesome! Good luck with that!
S: Tell him I got a job interview!
M: Okay N, I gotta get going, so good job, I’ll talk to you later, okay? (click)
S: Why didn’t you tell him??
M: Dude, who did you think I was talking to?
S: Umm…T?
M: How about you call T and tell him. I am sure he’d like to know.
