So I'll give you a quick tour of the room
To the left of the entrance is a sink

There is shampoo and conditioner
over there as well as body soap
And towel hand soap plus
all the amenities

swab and this is cotton
Body wash towel

Yes this is a hair dryer
Hair dryer
This is a trash
can Then this one over
here is a closet Hanger
And there's bottled water
This is free
Oh this must be a flashlight
Wow that's impressive
It's great for working
here There's also tissue
paper available The TV is
quite large There's a
TV a table and a sofa and
then a bed Do you all
remember I
always hear this
This is a pillow for the head
And just now the staff member said to call if anything
comes up didn't they There's
a memo pad and a pen available
This was inside the drawer
Envelopes and notepaper right I'll write this when I
drop off clothes for cleaning
This place is amazing
There's a meter for the courier service in here isn't there
The U-pack is included

By the way these pink and orange meters are different
This is collect-on-delivery meaning the recipient pays upon receipt
The person sending the item normally pays the
shipping fee For example if I send you all a
gift I pay the shipping But with this collect-on
-delivery option the recipient pays upon receipt
That's why when I write down your addresses using collect-on-delivery shipping the
postage cost you pay is exactly what this collect-on-delivery system is all about
For example one common use is when sending luggage from a hotel to one's home using a service
where payment is made upon receipt after arriving
home I just asked a staff member to arrange this
I'd like to record a conversation about asking someone to lend me
something over the phone — you can say something like that if you'd like
I'd like to record a short phone conversation about borrowing something for a moment
What do you think I don't use it myself
I'd like to borrow the adapter and some portable chargers for a bit
There's also an English version
I'll call you then Sorry I need to
borrow a charging adapter and some
mobile chargers could I borrow
your iPhone charger Thanks Excuse me
I just noticed while editing this
since the microphone is here
the staff members' voices aren't coming through at all
I'm truly sorry I'll definitely record it
if I get another chance Saying "Could you
please lend me something " or "Please lend
me something" would sound a bit more polite
Could you lend me some of
those things Or perhaps
ask if I can borrow
some of those He said he’d bring
them right away so I’ll wait a moment
Yes yes sorry about
that Thank you so much
Yes I borrowed a conversion plug and charger
Look it says Chinese and English here
This is the converter plug
You can also use it by combining them like this
And this is the iPhone charger
Just take it out of the bag
Yes this is it—really
helpful when you forget something
Good morning
Please check out
Understood Just let me confirm Yes
Thank you so much—especially since
you've already given
birth please do come by
whenever you can Thank you again
Thank you so much for always
taking the time to leave such thoughtful comments
