I just got a message from a staff member in sales saying that salaries for her department have not been deposited yet. They should have come in yesterday afternoon.
Jessica Jang 9:28
Has anyone else gotten similar complaints from other departments?
William Stuttgart 9:34
I just checked with production and they got theirs, but those in purchasing did not. Neither did the employees in finance. Oh, and my salary hasn't come in either.
Jessica Jang 9:35
Nor mine. This is quite strange. I checked with research and development and they got theirs. I wonder if Erin's heard anything.
Erin Hinkle 9:37
Sorry, I was on the phone just now. None of us in human resources has gotten paid, apparently. I discovered this issue earlier this morning, and I just contacted Beacon Bank to find out the cause of the problem. They promised a response in the next 10 minutes.
Erin Hinkle 9:44
So, the bank says they had some technical issues with a new payment software system that they recently started using. They've resolved the problem now and those who haven't been paid yet should have their funds within the next hour. Let me know what happens.
William Stuttgart 10:34
I just received notification from the bank thatthe funds have been sent.
Jessica Jang 10:35
Same here. Erin, could you contactthe other departments to confirm thatthe problem's been solved?

when she writes, "I can do that"?- Questions 162=164 refer to the following report.
Report for City Council Executive SVIeeting, March 18 Options from the Planning Department
The Truman Expressway is now 50 years old and is no longer fit for use. The surface is becoming less even, and the underside of the elevated road is crumbling, posing a potential hazard to the pedestrian areas and smaller roads that run beneath it. There are three main options for how to handle these issues with the expressway.The first is to invest money in the repair of damaged sections. This is the cheapest possible option, as well as the quickest. However, some community activists have noted that people do not like having to walk along the dark streets underneath the expressway to reach the waterfront on the other side. The city has been trying to increase low visitation rates to the waterfront area, and making road repairs only would not address this problem.
The second option is to rebuild the roadway underground. This would allow us to maintain the same traffic capacity and provide more space aboveground for other structures or buildings.
However, it would be extremely expensive and possibly disruptive.The final option is to tear the expressway down and widen Elmview Road, which currently runs beneath it. This could help to expand local retail, as shops at ground level would be able to tap into a large customer base. However, Elmview Road would not be able to take all of the traffic that currently runs on the expressway. Much of this traffic would try to bypass the city by taking smaller roads to the north, probably through the community of Greenville. At the same time, the residents of this community would most likely be against using their city as an alternative route due to an increase in through traffic and noise on their roads.
Question 162. What is NOT an option suggested in the
report?Question 163. What is suggested about the city's
waterfront?
