Managing director
“Hi, this is Annabel speaking, I’m looking for Mr. ven den Hoeten.”
– “The only Mr. ven den Hoeten I know is my father. It’s pronounced ‘van den Houten’ by the way, but I’m quite sure you are looking for me. How may I help you?”
“No, I’m looking for Mr. ven den Hoeten. I was told he is the managing director.”
– “Well, that’s me. Last time I checked I was still a girl. Sorry to disappoint you. So how can I be of assistance?”
“I want to speak to Mr. ven den Hoeten. He is the managing director, right?”
– “Listen, if you want to talk to the managing director, I’m your girl. If you want to talk to Mr. VAN DEN HOUTEN, I’ll be happy to give you his phonenumber. He has a lot more time on his hands than I do, considering the fact he retired a year ago. Not to mention the fact that he has never worked here.”
“Bye.”
