"They are also responsible for purchasing their own uniforms, the details of which will be provided at a later time."
Gloria Arden | [8:20 A.M.] | I've been looking over everyone's progress reports on the software project. Based on what I've seen, I don't think we'll be able to meet our scheduled release date. |
Isabel Cabrera | [8:22 A.M.] | You may be right about that. Since Bob and Carol moved over to the new hardware project, we've had some trouble meeting the initial deadlines. |
Gordon Brickyard | [8:26 A.M.] | Couldn't we just reschedule the release? Pushing it back a month ought to give us enough time to finish up. |
Joe Freemont | [8:28 A.M.] | But remember that the product is supposed to be available for the holiday season, which is our peak sales period. If we miss that deadline, we could lose many potential customers. |
Gordon Brickyard | [8:31 A.M.] | My team has a lot of urgent responsibilities, so I think it would be a good idea to hire some independent contractors to help out. |
Gloria Arden | [8:32 A.M.] | What are you thinking? |
Gordon Brickyard | [8:33 A.M.] | Well, they could help my team finish writing the user manual, for one thing. And they could probably handle product testing as well. |
Gloria Arden | [8:35 A.M.] | I see. What's your opinion, Isabel? |
Isabel Cabrera | [8:37 A.M.] | It could end up being expensive, but I like the idea. Our graphic designers could certainly use some outside help, too. |
Gloria Arden | [8:40 A.M.] | Well, it sounds like we should go with Gordon's idea. I'll also bring it up during the board meeting on Friday to see what they say. |
