I'd like to work on my business students' phone skills (as would they) and we have the luxury of nice conference phones at the facility. What I'd like to do, though, is gather some ideas for topics (business related, of course) prior to starting the activities. Interview skills, negotiations, etc. are possibilities.

Any other ideas for places I might find rough scripts and/or ideas to give this some structure?

Thanks in advance.

Teacher: Hello how are you today?

Student: (pants) Me very good!

Teacher: Wow... that sounds great... umm.. well umm... what do you want to talk about ?

Student: (pants more, thumping noise in background) Me talk about you, me want to talk about American girls.

Teacher: Wait a minute... umm... you realize I am a man right?

Student: (panting more, thumping becoming louder) You are girl, I pay so you girl!

Teacher: (begins to recognize source of thumping noise, turns green) Look pal I am a man, are you choking your chicken?

Student: (panting, thumping continues) Me no choke chicken, me chop chicken's head off with axe. You pretty girl, you come to chicken dinner? Tell me about your breasties, how big are they?

Teacher: (stiffling laughter, and the need to vomit puts on voice speaker for his room mates to listen in) No chicken choking? You might be spanking your monkey?

Student: (moans softly, scrambling for terry towel) Me korean, not Chinese, we no spank monkeys.

Teacher: (Writhing in laughter on floor next to his two catatonic room-mates who are griped in a coma brought on by excessive laughter) Whoa there buddy, no need to get testy, tell me you ever hear of a quick trigger?

Student: (scuffling noises) Yes me know what trigger is, its an american term for vagina.

Teacher: (stops laughing, looks amazed. His room mates are nearly smothered from laughing into pillows) Well not exactly, but your close its roughly between the legs. Anyway I got to go we can do this again next week.... or maybe not I have a dentist appointment.

Student: Thank you for chance to practice talking with beautiful American Girl.

Both hang up.

How much time did you put into typing that? And so, uh, helpful, too.

...oh, to have so much free time...
