As for the second clips, Sir Mark showed us another video from the same series that is Curb your Enthusiasm. The clip is about; Larry is making a call to one company, and the secretary in the company pick up the phone. Larry wanted to speak to someone, and then the secretary asks him what is this calling regarding. Larry state that he wants to speak to the person and that person will know why he is calling. But, the secretary still want to know what is the call is all about. I guess Larry wants his conversation is between him and that person.
For me, the secretary is being too busy body and she should ask such many time in knowing other’s business. But I like how Larry handles her. He used the same thing what the secretary did, just to make her realize that it’s not nice to know other’s business when the person did want other people to know it. He asked the secretary to tell him what her last conversation before him is. Then here’s the best part! The secretary answers “that’s none of your business!” then Larry answers back, “exactly!” then he just hang up the phone and continues his work. In the story we all realize that Larry is being pissed off by the secretary. As for the secretary, she should know that it’s not polite to force someone to tell something that is obviously none of her business. It could be a top secret conversation or important information. What she should do is, when the person didn’t want to tell her what the call is regarding, she should just pass to the person that they want to speak with.
Topic: He should not tell what the call is regarding.
Perspective: He should just tell what is the call regarding or just lie to the secretary in order to satisfy her and he can speak to that particular person.
Positioning: He should not tell the secretary because it’s none of her business to know about it and the thing he want to speak with that person has nothing to do with her.
