  1. A

    Виктор Павлович, простите, но переговорную на десять забронировал я.

    Viktor Pavlovich, excuse me, but I'm the one who booked the meeting room for ten.

  2. B

    Позвольте, Андрей, я её ещё в понедельник забронировал, вот календарь.

    Excuse me, Andrei, I booked it back on Monday, here's the calendar.

  3. A

    Странно, у меня тоже есть присланное системой подтверждение. Опять она ошиблась!

    Strange, I've also got a confirmation the system sent me. It's made a mistake again!

  4. B

    Поскольку переговорная одна, давайте решим, чьё совещание важнее. Какая у вас повестка?

    Since there's only one meeting room, let's decide whose meeting matters more. What's on your agenda?

  5. A

    Запуск новой системы доставки для складов. А у вас что?

    Launching the new delivery system for the warehouses. And yours?

  6. B

    Подождите, у нас та же система, только для магазинов! Правая рука не знает, что делает левая.

    Wait, we've got the same system, only for the shops! The right hand doesn't know what the left is doing.

  7. A

    Выходит, мы полгода делаем один проект с разных концов. Заходите, в тесноте, да не в обиде!

    So for six months we've been doing one project from opposite ends. Come on in, the more the merrier!
