Dialogue

The following conversation involves three people (Manager, advisor and Transportation
Representative) belonging to a company that wants to send products to another country.
The discussion revolves around the medium and mode of transport most suitable for the
selected product.

Manager: Good morning everyone. Please, Mr. Counselor, explain the modes and means
of transport available.V
Counselor: Good morning. To start, we have the land mode (trucks, trucks, and other land
vehicles), air (airplanes, planes, helicopters) and sea (ships, ships and others). The export
manager will explain how they work.
Transport representative: First, I will say that if you want the cargo to arrive quickly you
must choose the air mode, because it is the fastest, although a little more expensive, if you
want security the maritime mode is the indicated one, a little less expensive and also
delayed, and if you want economy, the land is very accessible, but unsafe.
Manager: Our product may be perishable, but we need economy.
Counselor: Everyone is looking for economics, but we must also think about product
conservation.
Transport representative: It is very true, if the product is perishable and you should think
about arriving at your destination in the best possible conditions. I recommend the maritime
mode, it offers great comfort and safety, it also has a lower cost.
Manager: But it is delayed, we need it to be fast.
Counselor: Sir and Miss, seeing your opinions, we will discard land transport.
Transport representative: We analyze the points for and against the remaining modes of
transport and make a decision.
Manager: Please expose the points in favor of air mode.
Counselor: It's faster.
Transport representative: There are no physical barriers that interrupt its passage.
Counselor: You have easy access.
Transport representative: It is highly recommended to transport perishable cargo because
of its speed.
Manager: Well now we are going to your disadvantages, please.
Counselor: It is the most expensive of the three modes of transport.
Transportation representative: It is uncertain, it is conditioned by weather conditions.
Counselor: Not suitable for cheap and bulky goods.
Manager: And it has many legal restrictions.
Counselor: That's Mr. Manager; Now we will see the maritime mode.
Transport representative: One of its advantages is the volume and storage capacity it
offers.
Manager: Your freight is very cheap, it is a great advantage.
Counselor: Offers security and stability, a variety of products and transportable materials,
coverage and insurance.
Transportation Representative: Now let's look at the disadvantages.
Manager: Their procedures are very extensive and delayed, and their biggest disadvantage
is the delay.
Counselor: Well we must make a decision. What do you think, Mr. Manager?
Transport representative: Given that it is a perishable product, I think the best option is air
mode.
Manager: I also agree, it does not give us economy, but it does travel quickly, and that is
what we need.
Transportation Representative: Well said, now, what do you think of a counselor?
Counselor: I think it is better to be safe than sorry. The decision is made.
Manager: Since we all agree, the air mode is the best way to transport our product. Thank
you very much, you can retire.
