  1. "I want a detailed1 memo2 about this issue till tomorrow's morning."

  2. "You were supposed to have changed that light bulb last week!"

  3. "We haven't got a policy on that."

  4. "I am on my way to a very important meeting, so we'll discuss it some other time."

  5. Three. Two to find out if it needs changing, and one to tell an employee to change it.
