Caller: "I need to speak to someone about my order — right now!"
Receptionist: "Of course. May I take a few details, and I'll transfer you to the appropriate department immediately?"
Caller: "Fine. It's order number 54321."
Receptionist: "Thank you. I'll pass this straight on to the Orders Team. One moment, please."
🎯 Model Dialogue 2: Handling a Confused CallerReceptionist: "Good morning, IT Support, Megan speaking."
Caller: "Oh, um, hello. I'm not sure if I've called the right number. I need help with my laptop..."
Receptionist: "No problem at all — you're through to IT Support. Let’s see if I can help."
Caller: "It's just... it's not turning on properly, and I don't know what to do."
Receptionist: "I completely understand. Could I take your name and your department, please?"
Caller: "Yes, it's Olivia Patel from Marketing."
Receptionist: "Thank you, Olivia. Let me just check which technician is available, and I’ll get someone to give you a call back shortly."
Caller: "Alright, thanks very much."
Receptionist: "You're very welcome. We'll be in touch as soon as possible."
