ERROR EN LAS SILLAS
DIALOGO UNITED 2
Today Ms. Green was very late for work. She waited for the delivery of her new chair. But
the delivery man brought the wrong chair. Ms. Green called the store manager.
"I ordered a brown chair," she said, "not green!"
"Don't be angry," said the manager. "We all make mistakes, don't we?"
"Some people make bigger mistakes than others!" Ms. Green answered.
The manager found her order.
"Ha," he laughed. Another customer, Mr. Brown, ordered a green chair and got your chair
instead. Isn't that funny?"
"No, it isn't. I want my chair. I paid enough money for it," said Ms. Green. "Come to the
store now and get a different chair," he said.
But Ms. Green went to work instead. After work, she went to the store, but it was already
closed. A handsome young man was also there.
"I'm late," he said. "Now I have to wait until tomorrow for my green chair."
"Are you Mr. Brown?" she asked. "Yes, but ... "
"I can help you with your chair," said Ms. Green. And she smiled for the first time that day.

TRADUCCION
Hoy la señorita Green llegó muy tarde al trabajo. Esperó la entrega de su
nueva silla. Pero el repartidor trajo la silla equivocada. La Sra. Green
llamó al gerente de la tienda.
"Pedí una silla marrón", dijo, "¡no verde!"
"No te enojes", dijo el gerente. "Todos cometemos errores, ¿no?"
"¡Algunas personas cometen errores más grandes que otros!" La Sra. Green
respondió.
El gerente encontró su orden.
"Ha", se rió. Otro cliente, el Sr. Brown, ordenó una silla verde y
consiguió su silla en su lugar. ¿No es gracioso?
"No, no lo es. Quiero mi silla. Pagué suficiente dinero por ella", dijo
la Sra. Green. "Ven a la tienda ahora y consigue una silla diferente",
dijo.
Pero la Sra. Green fue a trabajar en su lugar. Después del trabajo, ella
fue a la tienda, pero ya estaba cerrada. Un joven apuesto también estaba
allí.
"Llego tarde", dijo. "Ahora tengo que esperar hasta mañana por mi silla
verde".
"¿Es usted el señor Brown?" ella preguntó. "Sí, pero ... "
"Puedo ayudarlo con su silla", dijo la Sra. Green. Y ella sonrió por
primera vez ese día.
