Adventures in Hosting

It's 10:15 am and I have a ton of work ahead of me to get this restaurant in perfect shape. 

[phone rings twice. I pick it up]
"Thank you for calling. My name is Mo, how can I assist you?" 
[voice answers] 
"Are you serving brunch today?"
[without hesitation]
"No, ma'am only on the weekends."
[very slight pause. concerned voice continues]
"So, not today?"
[in the exact same manner as before]
"No, We only serve brunch on the weekends."
[immediately]
"Today is not the weekend? 
"We only serve brunch on Saturdays and Sundays."
"Oh..."[pause] OK.."
[silence then click]
