Jay:Let’s keep it as it is. Only time will tell if we’ll need more space. I think we’ll be fine for now.
Alex:All right then. It’s high about time I get firm answers; I have been waiting for that for days now!
Jay:You should have asked me.
Alex:Yes, I guess I should have.
Jay:Well, hope to see the drawing by the end of the day? Time is of the essence!
