PART 1 · LESSON 7 OF 30 · 30 MINUTES
The schedule needs breathing room
Sam promises the sign for Friday, and Ana learns to set aside time for review and unexpected issues before committing to a date. Say, "the sign takes one day we'll finish on Friday," "set aside time for review," "who reviews a sign," "Emma, Jordan, and a new user," "okay two days," "and set aside time for things to go wrong," "nothing is going to go wrong," "the printer is broken Sam," "true," "a realistic estimate would be two weeks."
