Actual conversation...
Saturday afternoon. I answer the phone:
ME: Hello
MATTHEW: Hello. This is Matthew from the bike shop. I'm calling to tell you your bike is ready to be picked up.
ME: Great. Well, it's 4:30 now, I won't make it into town today. Are you open tomorrow?
MATTHEW: I think so.
ME: What do you mean 'I think so'. You work at the bike shop, don't you?
MATTHEW: Wait. I'll ask Steve. (muted mumbles in the background) Yeah, he thinks so, too.
ME: Thinks so? Can you tell me for sure so I don't make a wasted trip?
MATTHEW: Yeah, I'm pretty sure we'll be open.
