Traveler

I need a ticket to Boston for tomorrow.

Clerk

Okay, do you want a morning or afternoon train?

Traveler

Morning is better because I have a meeting.

Clerk

There's a train at 8 AM and one at 9:30.

Traveler

The 8 AM one, please.

Clerk

Oh wait, that train is full today.

Traveler

Really? That's too bad.

Clerk

But I can put you on the waiting list.

Traveler

How does the waiting list work?

Clerk

If someone cancels, you get their seat.

Traveler

Okay, let's try that then.

Clerk

Great, and I'll also book the 9:30 train for you.

Traveler

That's smart, so I have a backup plan.

Clerk

Exactly, here are both of your tickets.
