Antwoord: A. Level One on Saturdays at 9:30 a.m.
She has never had lessons, so she starts in Level One, and Femi says Saturdays are better. The Saturday class is at nine-thirty in the morning.
Transcript
Ana: Good morning, Riverside Leisure Centre. This is Ana speaking.
Femi: Hi, I'm calling about swimming lessons for my daughter. She's seven, and she's never had lessons before.
Ana: Okay, she'd start in our Level One class. We have two options this fall. There's a Saturday class at nine-thirty in the morning, or a Wednesday class after school at four-fifteen.
Femi: Saturdays are better for us. How long does it run?
Ana: Eight weeks, starting October fourth. Each class is forty-five minutes long.
Femi: And what does it cost?
Ana: It's one hundred and twelve dollars for city residents. If you live outside the city, it's one hundred and forty.
Femi: We live in the city. Do I need to show anything?
Ana: Yes. When you register, you need proof of your address, like a utility bill. If you register online, you upload a photo of it.
Femi: Online is easier. Does she need to bring anything to class?
Ana: A swimsuit and a towel, and goggles if she likes them. Parents watch from the viewing area upstairs, not on the pool deck.
Femi: Got it. And what if she misses a class?
Ana: We don't give refunds for missed classes. But if she's sick for two or more classes, you can ask for a credit. You'll need a doctor's note.
Femi: That's fair. Thanks so much for your help.

Antwoord: C. On January 15, after his probation
Rachel says coverage starts after three months, when probation ends. For Omar that is January fifteenth.
Transcript
Rachel: Hi, Omar. Welcome to your second day. You said you had some questions about benefits?
Omar: Yes, thanks. First, when does my health and dental coverage start?
Rachel: After three months, so your probation period has to finish first. For you, that's January fifteenth.
Omar: Okay. And what does the dental plan cover?
Rachel: Checkups and cleanings are covered at one hundred percent. Fillings are covered at eighty percent, and you pay the rest.
Omar: That's good. What about vacation?
Rachel: Full-time staff get three weeks a year. But you started in October, so this year you get fewer days.
Omar: Can I carry unused days into next year?
Rachel: Up to five days. Anything over five is lost on March thirty-first, so plan ahead.
Omar: And parking? The lot out front looked pretty full.
Rachel: The front lot is for visitors. Staff park in the lot behind the warehouse. You'll need a permit, and I can print one for you today.
Omar: Great. One last thing. Who do I contact if I'm sick?
Rachel: Phone your supervisor before your shift starts, not after. A text message isn't enough.
