[Grey District] Contact [SOLVED]

This is a logic puzzle. Click on the picture and you'll hear a description of five customers in a restaurant. You have to find out which one's your contact by figuring out which parameters go together and who is having the fish.

Booth Colors: Red, Green, Blue, White, Grey
Jobs: Reporter, Intern, Maintenance Man, Unemployed, Farmer
Dress: Suit, Hat, Overalls, Glasses, Suspenders
Drink: Tea, Coffee, Milk, Beer, Water
Food: Sausage, Bacon Salad, Fish, Cabbage, Ham Sandwich

Note: I would attach the mp3, but I'm having trouble uploading it at the moment. For now, you can listen to it here.

Kinda makes me wish I could submit for this question. Answer below.

Booth One: Unemployed, Gray booth, hat, water, cabbage
Booth Two: Maintenance, Blue booth, overalls, tea, ham sandwich
Booth Three: Reporter, Red booth, suit, milk, bacon salad
Booth Four: Farmer, Green booth, suspenders, coffee, fish
Booth Five: Intern, White booth, glasses, beer, sausage

So it's the Farmer in the fourth, green booth.

Seriously, these questions are why I hated the LSATs. I feel just like Hermoine in Philosopher's Stone.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
At the beginning, the mysterious speaker says "Interestingly, the color of their booth seems to match their district of origin". I took that as a clue that the answer should be "Green", and it worked.

Don't want the *answer*?
The audio transcribed and formatted

Here is the audio transcribed, if you're looking for a hint and not the answer:



Proceed immediately to the Whisper Club restaurant in the Grey District.
Your contact is in a booth waiting for you, but the room is crowded. He has ordered the FISH.
I am monitoring the room by way of a nearby Wall-Monitor screen. I can tell you that each booth only has one person in it.
But interestingly, the color of their booth seems to match their district of origin.

HINTS:
1) A Reporter is in the red booth.
2) An Intern is eating Sausage.
3) A Maintenance Man is drinking Tea.
4) The Green booth is next to, and on the left, of the White booth.
5) The man in the Green booth drinks Coffee.
6) The person in the Suit is eating Bacon Salad.
7) The one in the Grey booth is wearing a Hat.
8) The man in the booth Three drinks Milk.
9) An Unemployed man sits in the First booth.
10) The man in Overalls sits next to the one who is eating Cabbage.
11) The man eating the Ham Sandwich is next to the man with the Hat.
12) The man with Glasses drinks Beer.
13) The Farmer wears Suspenders.
14) The Unemployed man sits in the booth next to the Blue booth.
15) The man with Overalls is the next booth over from the one who drinks Water.

You should now know which booth your contact is in. Be careful.

Variables:
Colors: Red, Green, Blue, White, Grey
Occupations: Reporter, Intern, Maintenance Man, Unemployed, Farmer
Clothes: Suit, Hat, Glasses, Overalls, Suspenders
Drinks: Tea, Coffee, Milk, Beer, Water
Food: Sausage, Bacon Salad, Cabbage, Ham Sandwich
Order: First, Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth

Remember, your contact eats the Fish.


If you want to use a grid(an example):

Down: Jobs, Dress, Food, Order
Across: Color, Dress, Drink, Food, Order
