1-- how was your day?
2-- let’s start with you. How was yours?
1-- it was really busy. I had to work straight through my lunch break.
2-- did you get to leave early then?
1-- my boss told me that I could either go home early or take a long lunch break another day, so I decided to wait and take a long lunch break another time.
2-- it was nice of your boss to give you an option. My boss would never do that.
1-- let’s get back to you. How was your day?
2-- it was horrible! It was just one thing after another.
1-- you look pretty upset. Are you ok?
2-- I’m fine. But I have bad news.
1-- what’s that?
2-- I got sacked today.
1-- you’re kidding! How did that happen?
2-- well, I was late to work today. It was the third time I was late this week.
1-- how late were you?
2-- only about 5 minutes.
1-- you got fired for being a few minutes late?
2-- my boss is really picky about that. He never arrives late, usually works over-time, and always gets his work done on time.
1-- oh well. You never really liked your boss anyway, did you?

1--哦,你一直都不喜歡你的上司,對吧?
